Monday Montage 189 - Etched in Nature

May 9, 2021

Hello friends. Welcome to the Montage Montage Blog hop.

This weekend has been filled with Mother’s Day activities. I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day or day celebrating those fantastic caregivers.

We took my MIL to dinner on Friday and this is the card that accompanied her gift. She enjoys birds (she just had to pull in her bird feeders due to bears). This sweet and simple card is a safe way to ‘look’ at birds. LOL.

This card is all about tiny and subtle details. I added highlight details to the bird image using a white gel pen. This bird stamps a little heavy so I wanted to break up all the black. Notice the subtle text in the background? The greeting has been stamped in Versamark ink and headset using clear emboss powder.

May 3, 2021

Hello friends. Happy May and welcome to this week’s Global Design Project challenge. It’s been a month and now time for another sketch challenge. This sketch is a traditional sized card in portrait format with a circle focal point.

I pulled out the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp and die bundle to create this sunny card. I even dusted off the old sewing machine to add stitching.

One color wonder - I stamped the little birdie image on coldpress watercolor paper in Golden Glow ink and then pulled that color through the images with a water brush. I love easy technique to quickly add color. Bird image & sentiment are from the Cutest Crew stamp set. #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakingreels #cutestcrew

Golden Glow. I'm going to try to create a series of one color cards using the new Stampin' Up! InColors. Today I'm showcasing Golden Glow. This new color is a soft warm light gold. It is a calming color and I think it is very a nice addition to the yellows. Those cute bird images are from the 'Cutest Crew' stamp set. Need a reason to make? We have a animal theme @global.design.project #gdp551 Play along with us this week! Looking for more inspiration on this Monday? My Monday Montage friends are sharing a bunch of fun new ideas.

Punches for the win. I needed a graduation card so I used two punches from Stampin’ Up! To create the graduation cap. The cap tassle is created using baker’s twine. Modern Oval & Tailored Tag punch. #useyourstash #graduationcard #cardmakingreels
It's been weeks since I created a card and it felt good to sit down and make something. It's graduation season and cards are needed!  I pulled together a few punches and the Bordered in Beauty bundle to create. This card works for two challenges this
