Inspired by all the little Things #68

Hey Friends, We have another pretty inspiration photo for you this week at Inspired by all the little Things! I love the blue of the dress and the pretty floral bouquet. 

I started my card by inking up WPlus9 Southern Summer Florals 2 and die cutting them. The white embossed sentiment comes from Simon Says Stamp Floral Bliss set. I searched my 6x6 pads for a dusty blue to match the dress. This was as close as I could get, The grey wood grain is from the same pad. I die cut a scalloped border with Lawn Fawn dies. A gem brad from my stash anchors the natural twine bow. 

I was happy to give this card to my daughter this past weekend to give to her friends for their wedding!

Our Guest this week is Sandy Mathis, please come join us this week, won't you?

Inspired by all the little Things #67

Hey there Friends, It's time for Inspired by all the little Things 67.  We have a beautiful fall tablescape that you can interpret any way you wish! 

I used some patterned paper with some of the colors from the photo, and also embossed some Lawn Fawn pumpkins in white on kraft card stock. I die cut some MFT leaf dies and a circle as well. My sentiment is Lawn Fawn too, stamp with brown ink. Some pink twine tied in a bow finished it off. 

Bonnie Klass is our guest this week. Stop by the blog and see what our Bonnie and the design team have made.

Thanks for visiting!

Inspired by all the little Things #66

Hi Friends, Welcome to Inspired by all the little Things #66! Isn't that flower beautiful in the inspiration photo? 

I was inspired by the shape of the flower. The shape of my flowers from the Wplus9 Beautiful Bouquet-Mums set is similar but that's were the similarity ends. I went with a different pink tone using zig brush markers to color my image. I made this several weeks ago and thus the bright almost summer colors. 

After heat embossing in white and coloring, I die cut the focal piece with the SSS Scalloped Border die. I then layered it over the polka dot paper and stamped the sentiment with SSS Thoughtful Messages. Sequins from a variety of manufacturers finish it off. 

Anita in France is our guest this week, Stop on by and check out the inspiration! We'd love it if you added a card to the gallery. :)

Simon Says Stamp Wed. Challenge  -Anything Goes

Seize the Birthday Challenge Option:Anything Goes

Merry Monday 258

Hey Friends, I broke out my Prisma Pencils and colored up these cute critters from Avery Elle (Snow much fun). We are to use a penguin on our card for Merry Monday 258. I put together a simple mail-able card to start my stash of Holiday cards. I'm way behind!!

I hand drew the little snow banks and snow flakes, cut the panel out with Avery Elle borders dies and popped it up on foam tape. The background paper is from 6x6 Crate Paper Snow and Cocoa, set on a card base of PTI Aqua Mist Card Stock. 

Gotta cut this short and I'm hoping I didn't miss the link-up deadline!

See you soon!

Christmas Card Challenge -Option Anything Goes

Inspired by all the little Things #65

Hi Friends, We've got challenge #65 for you this week at Inspired by all the little Things. The mushrooms and the forest inspired me to use my SSS Birch tree diecut and Lawn Fawn's Gleeful Gardens stamps and dies. This card was fun!

I diecut the background and sponged on distress ink in an ombre style, then splashed with water. I colored by images with Copics and adhered to the bottom, except for the cute bird. I stamped a sentiment from the set and tied on some Lawn Fawn natural and gold bakers twine.

Amanda Bodine is our guest.

Come join the team this week, won't you?

Inspired by all the little Things #64

Hi Friends, Welcome to #64 of Inspired by all the little Things. I was a little bit challenged by the inspiration photo so I went pretty literal. I love the colors tho! I broke out my Lawn Fawn Jar stamps and dies to create the jars. I added copper embossing powder to look like the photo. 

For the flowers I used Wplus9 stamps and dies, called Southern Summer Florals 2 for the flowers stamped with Momento Pear Tart. The background was ink-smooshed with Peacock Feathers distress ink. The sentiments are from SSS. 

Our guest this week is Shannon Jaramillo. Being on this design team allows me to meet crafters I would not have known and I love that!

I choose to pull out a Penny Black Floral set and stamped it with Hero Arts Cantelope and Mint ink. I stamped  the Simon Says Stamp sentiment (Thoughtful Messages) in Desert Sand.
