Flowering Desert - Global Design Project Color Challenge - GDP177

I was so excited to see this weeks Global Design Project color challenge. These colors look amazing together. I knew immediately that I wanted to use the Flowering Desert stamp set with these colors.

Flowering Desert is a great builder stamp set. I like a set with lots of images that I can build upon and customize. This set is so easy to use and everything you stamp looks fantastic and deliberate. I created the background scene by building various cactus, flowers and leaf images. To balance it I started by stamping with the larger images and the darkest color first. Then I filled in the open spaces with the smaller images. I like this effect.

Ready to see more color inspiration using Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green?

Sale-A-Bration - TGIF Challenges product Challenge - TGIFC199

This card feels fun, fresh and like a party! I love the sentiment and find it to be completely true. I think most of the people who inspire me have no idea. I should let them know.

This edition of the TGIF Challenges is focused on Sale-A-Bration products. The card I am featuring today features THREE great Sale-a-bration products.

I used the verse stamp set called Part of My Story, the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Papers and the Butterfly Wood Elements. A full list of supplies can be found below. Note: every 50$ purchase will earn you a FREE SAB product.

Like the colored look of the wood elements? I dipped them in versamark and then into InColor Embossing powder and heat set.

Part of My Story - Global Design Project CASE Challenge - GDP176

HELLO Friends! Ready for another Global Design Project challenge? This week we are casing this colorful card from Steffi Helmschrott.

When I saw this card from Steffi I knew instantly I want to create a bright, rainbow watercolor background but wasn't quite sure where to go from there.

Do you like these bright colors? The combo is Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green and Bermuda Bay. I used a little drop from the ink refill and an aqua painter to apply the color and love how vibrant these colors appear.

I thought it would be fun to create the eclipse technique using the Be Mine framelits. I decided to give the watercolor background a little dimension using a textured impressions embossing folder. I like this look however if I were to recreate this card I would dampen the watercolor paper before embossing just a bit to eliminate the cracking.

The verse come from the Part of My Story stamp set (free with 50$ purchase). I chopped it up to mimic how Steffi laid out her verse. Super fun and bright!

Creating Kindness Blog Hop - BIRTHDAY!

Boy am I longing for a little tropical relief in this middle of this freezing February. Maybe that’s why I crafted this birthday card with such a summery feel? Are you surviving your winter? I really need to see the sun!

I had a birthday last week. So many friends sent along lovely birthday cards. I am so touched by their friendship and really inspired by the beautiful cards that popped up in my mail. Birthdays are on the brain, which make’s the timing of this month’s CK theme perfect. The Creating Kindness crew are creating birthday cards!!! I always need a birthday card on hand. Hopefully this hop will provide you with tons of varied inspiration to get your birthday card ideas flowing.

There are so many fun NEW tools in the Occasion catalog but I choose to use some favorite “oldie” stamp sets that have been around a bit to create this juicy & refreshing birthday card. A full list of supplies can be found below.
