Springtime Impressions - TGIFC159 Sketch Challenge

May 11, 2018

Welcome back friends. Happy Friday and that means it is time for another TGIF Challenge! We have an unique sketch to play along with. I just received some of the new catalog products on preorder and I couldn't wait to open them up and play. This card follows the sketch to the letter, however instead of a flower I used the butterfly die from the new Springtime Impressions thinlets.

The TGIFC designers have some lovely interpretations of this sketch. Check them out and play along! #tgifc159

A white wedding card with a little black tie! This card is so much prettier in person. I had such a difficult time trying to photograph the white irridescent foil on the Basic White Cardstock. I used layers of white ribbons, vellum, cardstock, and foil to create this look. Card created for @stampinfancyfriday B&W challenge.

I’m not a blending brush expert. Ink blending takes patience, and time but when you stamp on top of it, you can hardly see the mistakes… ha! Spooky trick. I used a circle punch and post it note to create a simple mask and set to blending a moody night sky. Cards created using the ‘Oh My Fright’ stamp set for #gdp568 #ohmyfright #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmakingreels

Teal or purple?! Both are great for a spooky background. Colors used: Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock Fresh Freesia and Berry Burst I can't decide if I have a favorite? The greeting and bat images are from the 'Oh My Frights' Halloween stamp set.

I used hot foil to create this card and a second card with the leftover negative foil from the hot foil die. Two for one! There’s something just so satisfying about peeling the foil away from the card stock. Foil is Light Pink. Foil die is called: GARDEN SILHOUETTE HOT FOIL DIE #stampinup #cardmaker #hotfoil #gardensilhouettehotfoildies
