#TGIFC369: New Catalog Inspiration

I'm playing along with the challenge at TGIF Challenges again this week, and this week is a fun one! 

 

It's not hard to be inspired by the new catalog, so I used a few of my favorite products:

• Decorative Circle Punch
• Design a Daydream DSP (host exclusive product)
• Iridescent Pearls

My card was also inspired by one of the sample projects in the catalog. You can see it in the photo below (the coral card with the three punched circles):

 

Here is the card I created:

 

Those Iridescent Pearls are SO pretty in person! Sometimes it's hard to tell in the catalog photos exactly what a product will be like, and in this case, the photos definitely do not do them justice. 

 

 

Here is a full list of products used on this card:

Stamps: Pansy Patch

Ink: Blackberry Bliss, Stampin' Blends Markers: Dark Blackberry Bliss

Paper: Pool Party, Blackberry Bliss, Basic White, Design a Daydream DSP

Embellishments: Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Iridescent Pearls

Tools: Decorative Circle Punch

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

 

Happy Stamping!

#GDP343: Beautiful Butterflies

This week's theme challenge at Global Design Project was the perfect chance to break out one of my new favorite bundles - the Best Butterflies Bundle!

 

I used a lot of Rose Gold on this card - isn't that new Rose Gold Specialty Paper stunning?!

Champagne Rhinestones were a great match for the Rose Gold. Who doesn't love a blingy card, am I right?

Stamps: Best Butterflies

Ink: Soft Suede, Blushing Bride, Petal Pink

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Shimmery White, Rose Gold Specialty Paper

#TGIFC368: A Little Note of Thanks

 It has been quite awhile since I've played along at TGIF Challenges, but I used their sketch this week as my starting point when I pulled out the Sweet Songbirds Bundle for the first time!

 

This was my first play with this bundle, and it's so much fun to work with! You can stamp the bird or create it with the punch and cardstock, and there are lots of little stamps in the set to build your own little picture. As a pianist, I couldn't resist the musical notes! 

 

Here are all of the products I used on this card:

Stamps: Sweet Songbirds 

Ink: Memento Black, Crushed Curry, Sweet Sorbet

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Parakeet Party, 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper

Embellishments: 2022-2024 In Color Baker's Twine Pack

Tools: Songbird Builder Punch, Stylish Shapes Dies, Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

Happy Stamping!

#GDP341: Dear Friend

I am playing along this week with the Global Design Project color challenge. Pretty and soft subtle colors!

 

If you were to ask me, my first color choices would be bright colors, not these soft pastels. But I think they came together for a lovely card!

 

The Perfectly Penciled DSP is perfect for coloring! Here's a closer look:
