#TGIFC469: You're the Most Awesome Friend

There is an inspiration challenge at TGIF Challenges this week, and of course I had to play along!

The butterflies were the inspiration for my background of lots of little hearts, and I decided to do a rainbow of colors with the emboss resist technique because that color scheme reminded me of spring.

 

I used an unlikely stamp set for my sentiment - the Trusty Tools stamp set. While this bundle is geared towards the guys, I love this sentiment for anyone! I paired it with the Mini Alphabet Dies and a strip of Coastal Cabana hearts from the Brights Designer Series Paper Stack.

 

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

Stamps: Country Bouquet, Trusty Tools

Ink: Flirty Flamingo, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana, Berry Burst, Versamark

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Coastal Cabana, Brights DSP Stack, Watercolor Paper

Embellishments: Adhesive-Backed Shiny Sequins

Tools: White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Water Painters, Zany Zoo Dies, Mini Alphabet Dies, Nested Essentials Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue

 

Happy Stamping!

#TGIFC403: Happy Valentine's Day

A sketch challenge is always so much fun, and I'm playing along with TGIF Challenges and their sketch challenge this week.

 

This sketch is simple, and was easy to work with! I used the Country Floral Lane Suite and created a Valentine's Day card.

 

I used the Country Bouquet Punch to create a subtle, textured background. I punched the larger heart out of Crumb Cake cardstock a number of times and layered the hearts onto another piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. 

 

I also used the Country Bouquet stamp set, Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper and Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins from this suite of products. Stampin' Up!'s coordination is the best, and makes it so easy to create beautiful projects!

 

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

Stamps: Country Bouquet

Ink: Blushing Bride, Sweet Sorbet

Paper: Crumb Cake, Basic White, Country Floral Lane DSP

Embellishments: 2022-2024 In Color Baker's Twine, Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins

Tools: Country Bouquet Punch, Stitched Rectangles Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

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

Happy Stamping!

#GDP377: Country Bouquet Card

This week's challenge at Global Design Project is a color challenge. These colors make me think spring!

 

I used products from the Country Floral Lane Suite to make my card. It was kind of fun to go outside of the pink/red/blue color scheme you'll see in the catalog spread for this suite.

 

This stamp set comes with a coordinating punch. Aren't punch bundles the best?! The two hearts are on one stamp, as are the two leaves, which makes this punch quick and easy to use.

 

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

Stamps: Country Bouquet

Ink: Balmy Blue, Granny Apple Green, So Saffron

Paper: Balmy Blue, Basic White, So Saffron, Granny Apple Green, Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper

Embellishments: Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins

Tools: Country Bouquet Punch

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

 

Happy Stamping!
