Lots of Lavendar CTD (1 of 3).jpg

Lots of Lavender - Color Throw Down 475

January 11, 2018

It seems I've been a little MIA on blog posting lately. I have been making tons of samples but not many have been posted online ... yet. Feeling the need to craft and inspired by my friend Jenny, I thought I'd participate in this weeks Color Throw Down challenge. It's been forever since I've played along with this crew but it sure it fun to try out a different color combination. I don't usually use much purple in my projects.  Purple is the perfect color choice to use with this flower bouquet image.

The stamp set I used is called Lots of Lavender and it's part of the current Stampin' Up! Sale-a-bration promotion. You can earn it free with any 50$ purchase.

Another fun new product shown on this card are the Glitter and Clear epoxy shapes. These appear like tiny dew drops and are a simple and subtle embellishment.

I matched these challenge colors up to Stampin' Up! colors =  Fresh Fig, Pool Party and Sweet Sugarplum.

A full list of supplies can be found below.

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

I pulled together a few punches and the Bordered in Beauty bundle to create. This card works for two challenges this week. I'm playing along with @tgifchallenges color challenge using Night of Navy, Granny Apple Green and Smopky Slate. The card layout was inspired by the challenge sketch for @global_design_project #gdp550 #stampinup #cardmaking #graduationcard
