#TGIFC525: A Piggy Birthday

This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is a fun one - paper flowers!

 

I am featuring the Party Piggy Bundle on social media this week, and at first I was scratching my head about how to incorporate this bundle with paper flowers. But then I had an idea about a pig peeking out from a bed of flowers, and I turned my idea into a fun, flowery pig card for my daughter's upcoming birthday. She LOVES pigs, and I think she's going to be so excited when she opens this card!

 

I've paired the Party Piggy Bundle with the Impressions Abloom Dies. These flower dies are amazing, aren't they?!

 

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

Stamps: Party Piggy

Ink: Memento Black

Stampin' Blends Markers: Bubble Bath, Pecan Pie

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Bubble Bath, Daffodil Delight, Petunia Pop, Pool Party, Cute as Can Bee DSP

#TGIFC524: Sketch Challenge

Hello, friends!

It's been a bit since I've blogged. Life has been CRAZY, and some things had to be set aside for awhile. But I'm back today with a card for this week's sketch challenge at TGIF Challenges. Check it out!

 

I used products from the Floral Impressions Suite Collection to create my card using this sketch.

 

The flowers in this stamp set are two step stamps - use two different colors of ink, or you can stamp off and use two shades of the same color. I used two different colors this time. Here's a tip: stamp the darker, more detailed stamp first. It makes it much easier to line up that solid part!

 

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

Stamps: Impressions Abloom

Ink: Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia, Misty Moonlight, Pool Party

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Pool Party, Floral Impressions DSP

Embellishments: Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs, Iridescent Striped Trim

Tools: Pressed Flowers Embossing Folder, Impressions Abloom Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals

 

Happy Stamping!

#TGIFC514: You're as Sweet as Honey

This week's challenge at TGIF Challenges is an inspiration challenge, and it's perfect if you're starting to think about spring!

 

I am using the Meant to Bee Bundle this week, and I thought that it would work well with this challenge. I paired it with the Floral Delight DSP.

 

There are a variety of sizes of hexagons in the Meant to Bee die set, and each die creates a solid hexagon as well as a narrow outline. I've used the two smallest hexagons for my card - the smallest one for the solid hexagon and the second smallest for the Daffodil Delight outline. 

 

The sentiment comes from the Bee My Valentine stamp set. These two stamp sets work really well together, and are just a little bit different, giving you lots of options for mixing and matching.

 

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

Stamps: Bee My Valentine, Meant to Bee

Ink: Memento Black, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Daffodil Delight, Floral Delight DSP

Embellishments: Daffodil Delight 1/8" Satin Ribbon, Adhesive-Backed Dots for Days

Tools: Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder, Meant to Bee Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

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

 

Happy Stamping!

Creation Station: Black & White with a Pop of Color

 

Welcome to this month's Creation Station Design Team hop! This month, we created projects that use black and white with a pop of color. 

 

 

I wanted to use the Meant to Bee Bundle, so I chose Daffodil Delight as my pop of color. I've used the smallest hexagon die in the Meant to Bee die set to create my background. You'll see two Designer Series Papers - the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper (coming Tuesday!) and the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper.

Even if you already have the Bee My Valentine stamp set and Bee Builder Punch in your stash, this new Meant to Bee Bundle is a must have too! It's meant for scrapbooking, but I love that you get two more sizes of bees, and the dies are amazing.

 

 

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

Stamps: Meant to Bee

Ink: Memento Black, Daffodil Delight

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Basic Black, Daffodil Delight, Lovely Garden DSP, Floral Delight DSP

Embellishments: Neutral Matte Dots, Daffodil Delight 1/8" Satin Ribbon

Tools: Meant to Bee Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

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

Creation Station: Catalog Sketches

It's the first Sunday of the month, and that means it's time for the Creation Station Design Team hop! This month, we are choosing a card sketch from a current catalog to create our projects. I've chosen a sketch from the Annual Catalog. 

 

 

My card uses a few products that I just can't stop using! I've created my watercolor piece with Stampin' Write Markers - Melon Mambo, Azure Afternoon, and Berry Burst. I added a piece of gingham paper from the Cute as a Bee Designer Series Paper pack, some Purple Adhesive-Backed Sequins, and the Starstruck Embossing Folder for some texture in the background. The sentiment and heart come from the With You in Mind stamp set. 

 

 

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

Stamps: With You in Mind

Ink: Versamark

Stampin' Write Markers: Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst, Melon Mambo

Paper: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Basic Black, Watercolor Paper, Cute as Can Bee DSP

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

Tools: Stampin' Spritzer, Basics Wow! Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Starstruck Embossing Folder, Nested Essentials Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
