Hey Everyone

The card I’m sharing today is for the newest colour challenge and at Colour INKspiration Challenge.

Colour INKspiration is found on Facebook – we would love it if you could play along.  Link up a project to our Facebook page.  You have two weeks create a project. I can’t wait to see what you create with this very pretty colour combo below:

I’ve been away on our yearly holiday for the past 10 days and made this card while I was away.  I try and fit as many Stampin’ Up! products as I can into the boat to take along, but when it comes down to making a card, I always find I never have exactly what I need.  When all else fails, Penned and Painted is my fallback stamp set.  For some extra interest I added some pink accents from Oh So Succulent and some leaves from Picture Perfect – quite a combination of sets!

Here’s my card:

The next hop along the way is the wonderfully talented (and fellow Melbournian) Rachel Palmieri.  You’re going to love Rachel’s project as much as I do!

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Freshly Made Sketches #282

Hey Everyone

There’s a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch hostess is the fabulously talented Cecile Ribon.  I fell in love with this sketch as soon as I saw it.  It’s such a cool design that made making my card easy and come together in no time.  A no time card was what I needed as I’m on hols and sunning it up by the beach until next week.  Take a look at the friends I made while I was putting my card together on Monday. These cheeky birds have me wrapped around their little fingers (if they had any) and have me feeding them 3 times a day.

Now on to Cecile’s cool sketch:

You probably know by now about my love of flower stamp sets.  The stamp set I have used is from Stampin’ Up!s Oh So Succulent. The flowers I have stamped are quite possibly supposed to be made into succulents, but I decided to colour mine and make a Dahlia out of it.  I have paired them with some leaves from Stylish Stems Framelit Dies.  The squares in the background are from Urban Underground Speciality Designer Series Paper – which I LOVE! The sentiments I’ve used are from Balloon Adventures. There are so many of the sentiments that I use from this versatile set.

Here’s my card:

As always, the Design Team at Freshly Made Sketches has nailed it and created gorgeous cards to inspire you. Head over to the challenge and take a look.  While you’re there, we would love it if you could play along.

Thanks for stopping by.
