Radiant Sunflowers

 

Happy first Friday of October! 

I have really been playing a lot with the Sunflower Fields DSP and Radiant Sunflower Bundle. When I get a new stamp set I like to try different ways to color the images whether they be die cuts or stamped images. For this card I die cut the sunflowers with watercolor paper and then smooshed ink refills and water onto the pieces. I love how the color moves and gives such a soft feel. I also used the Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder for the background.  This is such a beautiful embossing folder! I tore the edge and added a piece of the Sunflower Fields DSP.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a blessed day!

Radiant Sunflower Bundle

 

Radiant Sunflower Bundle is a gorgeous stamps and die set. I like that they have a small group of flowers as well as stand alones. It stamp set also has a few wonderful sentiments. I was inspired by the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge for this week. They have a few inspiration pictures of everything fall.

For this card I did a quick and easy fun fold. I don't typically do a lot of fun folds but I really thought this group of flowers was perfect for this design. I also included Sunflower Fields DSP on this card.

This is the inside of the card.

After I had die cut the large shape from Pecan Pie Cardstock and White I used the negative shape to create a quick and easy card with the leftovers. I hope you are inspired to create for the fall season. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Silly Old Bear

 

Hand Stamped Sentiments challenge has some beautiful colors and images for inspiration this week! Do you love all the colors of fall? I created a wreath with the Silly Old Bear Dies and a few of the Painted Pumpkin Dies. 

Do all these gorgeous images give you so much inspiration? I sure hope so and I look forward to seeing what you create! Have a blessed week!

Silly Old Bear Suite

 

I have a few more cards to share with the sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge. It is so easy to use the Silly Old Bear Collection because everything coordinates so well! The DSP does a lot of the hard work for you!

These cards were created so quickly and I think the ink blending on the embossed background could have been a little lighter, but I still think the cards are cute!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you are inspired to create today!

Radiant Sunflower Bundle

 

Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge for this week is a sketch challenge! I used the Radiant Sunflower Bundle for my card. I couldn't pass up the beautiful images and super cute dies! Sunflower Fields DSP is what I used for the smaller circles (Spotlight On Nature Dies). The torn piece is white cardstock with the Sunflower Embossing Folder.

The sunflowers are die cut from white card stock and then I used blending brushes to apply my ink. 

I hope you are inspired by the sketch and play along! I look forward to seeing what you create!

Blessings!

Painted Pumpkin Bundle

 

Happy September! Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge for this week is a color challenge. For my card I used the new Painted Pumpkin Bundle. I die cut the images with watercolor paper and then used ink refills to smoosh on the color. I let it dry in between each layer of color. I used the new Sunflower Fields DSP for the strip of paper down the side. 

The embossing folder and embellishments are retired and from my stash. But the real star of the show is the Painted Pumpkin Bundle. You will love this! 

I look forward to seeing what you create with this color combo! Thank you so much for stopping by today! Blessings!

Paper Pumpkin for Sept!

Made with Sweetness

 

Hand Stamped Sentiment Inspiration Challenge is full of gorgeous vibrant colors! I am so excited to see what you are inspired by. I love the cherries and so I turned to the Sweet Words Dies for the large shapes, Homemade Sweetness DSP, Country Woods DSP , Forever Plaid Embossing Folder and the fruit (cherry) is a retired set, sorry I thought it was still available.

The greeting is also from a set that has been retired for a long time. I love to use the stash that I have. Cause I feel like if I spent the money and loved it when I bought it why not keep using it? I look forward to all the creative ideas you all have and don't forget to share with us on the blog!

Blessings!

Help Me Grow Bundle

 

Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge for this week is a great sketch challenge! I used the Help Me Grow Bundle for most of the card along with Country Woods DSP and the Silly Old Bear Collection for the shape piece behind the flowerpot.

I hope you get a chance to play along with us for this weeks challenge! Can't wait to see your creativity at work! Blessings!

Silly Old Bear Bundle

 

Happy Tuesday! Ready for a fun color Hand Stamped Sentiments has 3 colors to get your mojo going. When I saw Golden Glow I thought of the cute Silly Old Bear Bundle and had to play with that.

I love a clean and simple card and so I just let the 3 colors really stand out. I did add a little Mambo Melon to Piglets outfit just to add a little pop. I really love the Hundred Acre Embossing Folder! The detail is amazing!

I hope you are inspired by these colors and join our challenge! I look forward to what you create! Blessings!

Paper Pumpkin

Birthday card

 

When I saw the inspiration challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments I just so happened to see this cake that I had stamped a while back on my desk. I love to practice coloring and so I stamp things just so I can get more practice and this was one of those images. I couldn't help but want to color it like the inspiration picture. The stamp has been retired but there are some images that I just love and this is one. Have a wonderful day and I hope you find some time to be crafty!
