FF0056 Hugs Prayers Love

I went for yellow, ribbon, and bugs/insects for the 

challenge over at festivefridaychallenge.com 

I was going to do loads of only yellow shades but then remembered 

how much I like the purple-my fav color- with yellow. 

I did use Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry along with 

both Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather.

I started with a white base and a piece of Daffodil Delight 

designer paper from the Brights DSP paper pack. 

I then cut the white rectangle from the Nature's Thoughts dies.

I stamped the stem three times in Daffodil ink and the sentiment from

Positive Thoughts set in Gorgeous Grape.

I then stamped the butterfly in Crushed Curry and the 

two flowers in Grape and Heather on a piece of white card stock

and cut them out with the matching dies. 

I ran some Crushed Curry seam binding ribbon around and made a bow. 

I finished with the Grape glitter dots. 

Have a lovely day and thanks for stopping by!

CTS366 Celebrate Moments

I made this for a best friend who had a birthday Sunday!

We both love the beach and thought of her and me there.

She is brown headed and I am blonde and she is a little taller than me. 

Anyway, I am glad I got this set called Beautiful Moments to color.

I decided to watercolor here on Shimmery white card stock cut 

with the stitched square.

I pulled out my aqua painter and a few ink colors. 

I stamped the image in Memento Tuxedo Black.

I used Crumb Cake to do the sand, Pool party for the 

sky, Calypso Coral for the buckets, Crushed curry for one hair and

Soft Suede for the other. I finished with a very diluted Sahara Sand

to pull a little color on the face and body parts.

I layered the piece of Calypso Coral ran through

the Subtles embossing folder on top of the strip of 

Tropical Oasis DSP in a Pool Party print. 

All went on the Crumb Cake base.

I used the sentiment from Honey Bee set on a white banner in 

Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I added the rhinestone colored 

with a Pool Party Stampin Blend marker to finish it off. 

Inside, I did stamp Happy Birthday but did not take a photo of the inside. 

Hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!

FMS429 Greatest Guy

I decided to pull out my Country Club Suite for this sketch

challenge over at freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com 

I grabbed this print called Country Club DSP and used the 

Night of Navy, Garden Green, and white colors.

I started with the Night of Navy base and added the layer of 

Garden Green card stock plus a top layer of white.

I cut the strip of DSP 1 /3/4" for the right side. 

I stamped the sentiment from the Clubhouse set in Green on the white front left.

I then stamped again on a piece of Navy with VersaMark ink

and heat embossed in white. I then cut with the matching banner 

die from the Golf Club dies and popped it up. 

I also cut the white golf balls from those same dies.

I stamped the golfer from same set in Navy and cut him with matching die

to pop up on a Navy stitched circle.

I kept it simple and clean!

Thanks for stopping by!

Funny Bunny Treat Holder

I made these up quick for a friends grandchildren last week. 

I took some retired 6" by 6" designer paper in bright colors

and did a diaper fold. I added the bunny from 

Welcome Easter set stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black

and colored just with the Petal Pink Stampin Blend marker.

I hand cut them out to pop on the treat holder.

I put some Sour Patch bunny treat packages inside. 

Hope you have a blessed Palm Sunday

and thanks for stopping by!

GDP234 Hello Lily Pad

I decided to use more of my Lily Impressions DSP for the 

sketch challenge this week over at 

global-design-project.com 

It looks to life like and so textured.

I layered this print on the white card stock.

I then cut a 1 1/2" banner in white card stock and stamped the 

sentiment from Good Morning Magnolia in Pretty Peacock ink.

I stamped the lily pad in same ink on the Pretty Peacock

card stock. I stamped the lily from the same set called Lovely Lily Pad.

The lily was stamped on white in Memento Tuxedo Black and 

colored with my Pretty Peacock and Flirty Flamingo Stampin Blends.

I then cut them out with the matching Lily Pad dies. 

I finished it off with some Pretty Peacock gems. 

Hope you can play along 

and have a wonderful Friday!

Thanks for stopping by!

PP484 Happy Spring

I challenge myself to use ribbon for the 

tic-tac-toe challenge over at thepaperplayers.blogspot.com 

 I just have not been reaching for it lately.

I decided to go diagonally ribbon, spring, flowers.

I got to use some new dies that SU! is offering early from the 

new annual catty that starts in June. 

They are called Ornate Layers dies and there is large suite of items

and a few stamp sets. 

I used one for the Gorgeous Grape that layered on the white base.

I then used another in Purple Posy..really like this one!

I then stamped my tulips from Timeless tulips 

in both Grape and Posy inks on white card stock.

I punched the large tulips with the Tulip builder punch.

I hand snipped the small tulips.

I stamped on white the leaves and stems in Mint Macaron.

 I used the punch for the leaves but hand snipped the stems. 

They seem a little straight. 

I added the Grape striped bow.

The sentiment was stamped on a label die from Stitched Labels dies

and I stamped just the two words from a larger sentiment in the 

Timeless Tulips set. 

Hope you enjoy your day and 

thanks for stopping by!

FabFri186 You Made My Day!

I decided these colors wanted to be on poppies!

I stamped the poppies from Painted Poppies set

in Memento Tuxedo Black on a stitched circle.

I then sponged Terracotta Tile, Daffodil Delight,

 and Pumpkin Pie on the flowers.

 I added the sun from Waterfront set in Mango Melody.

I popped it up on the Terracotta Tile designer paper background

and white base. 

I stamped the sentiment from Ornate Thanks set in VersaMark ink

and heat embossed in white emboss powder on the black strip of card stock.

I finished off with Tile colored gems. 

Hope you have wonderful day and

 thanks for stopping by!
