#TGIFC595: Artisan Sketched Garden Thank You

 This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is a product challenge. The Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper is a beautiful black and white pack of paper - my favorite!

 

I've used the Designer Series Paper as my background piece. I colored the centers of the tiny flowers with my Dark Bubble Bath Stampin' Blends Marker. I also fussy cut the vase from the Designer Series Paper and colored with Pool Party and Berry Burst Stampin' Blends. One of the things I love about this paper is that you can use it as is - black and white - or you can add a little bit of color!

 

The label in the background comes from the Sweet Words & Labels die set, and the sentiment is from the Simply Leaves stamp set. And did you take a look at that beautiful, shiny black ribbon?! It's the Black 3/8" Iridescent Ribbon from our Halloween suite, and it's so pretty!

 

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

Stamps: Simply Leaves

Ink: Versamark

Stampin' Blends Markers: Bubble Bath, Berry Burst, Pool Party 

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Basic Black, Artisan Sketched Garden Designer Series Paper

Embellishments: Sunset Sparkle Sequins, Black 3/8" Iridescent Ribbon

 Happy Stamping!

Have you ever seen pumpkins this color? No? Me either. But I am featuring this bundle on my social media and for my card class this week, and I got the idea to make a pumpkin in each color. I think it turned out super cute, and who cares if these are make believe colors? Right?!

#TGIFC591: Simply the Best

Hello, friends! It's been a few weeks since I've shared on my blog here, and that's because life has been crazy with getting my kids back to school. But I'm back today to share a card inspired by the challenge at TGIF Challenges this week. It's an inspiration challenge. Take a look!

 

The yellow florals reminded me of the beautiful Glow of Harvest Specialty Designer Series Paper that is the Product of the Month this month. I've used several patterns of this paper - one as the background piece, and one fussy cut floral image. 

 

The die cut leaves and the vanilla label were both die cut with the Sweet Words & Labels Dies. The sentiment comes from the Learn & Grow stamp set. Here is a full list of products used on my card:

 

Stamps: Learn & Grow

Ink: Early Espresso

Paper: Golden Glow, Basic Beige, Very Vanilla, Vellum, Glow of Harvest Specialty DSP

Embellishments: Golden Glow 3/8" Bordered Ribbon, 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies

Tools: Sweet Words & Labels Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine 

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

 

I hope you are inspired by my card! Make sure to grab some of that Glow of Harvest paper before it's sold out!

 

Happy Stamping!

#TGIFC588: 'Tis the Season

This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is an inspiration challenge, and I've used elements from the layout to create my card this week.

 

I loved the stripes in the background, and wanted to recreate that look with strips of the Shimmering Stripes paper. It's so sparkly and pretty in real life. A photo does not do it justice!

 

I used the Pretty Poinsettia Bundle for the focal image. I've been having so much fun playing with this bundle this week!

 

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

Stamps: Pretty Poinsettia

Ink: Peaceful Pine, Real Red

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Real Red, Peaceful Pine, Shimmering Stripes Specialty Paper, Silver Foil

Embellishments: Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Real Red 1/4" Stitched Ribbon

Tools: 2 3/8" Circle Punch, Pretty Poinsettia Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

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

 

Happy Stamping!
