I Love Reading! Inspired By #68

April 18, 2019

It's time for another fun challenge at Inspired By.  

What inspires you about this photo?   Is it the colors, globes, books, plants???  We can't wait to see what you create!

My card is created on a Kraft card base.  I was inspired by the globes in the photo and found some map paper in my stash and used it at the top of my card.  I added a strip of wood grained paper for the bottom of my card.  I used the MFT BB Our Story set to create the items in my card.  I colored them with Copic Markers.  I paper pieced the chair.  All of the pieces were cut out using the matching dies.   The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp  Bookworms Rule! stamp set.  I added a pink enamel heart in the center.  Wink of Stella was added to most of the items for shine.   Since the theme is Earth Day, I printed this on the title of her book.   I think she is enjoying this book, don't you?  

Thanks for stopping by my blog today.  Please visit all the DT members projects for lots of inspiration!

I Love You Rain or Shine PP437

April 14, 2019

It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Players.  The amazing Ann is our hostesses this week and she has a beautiful trio of colors for us to work with.  We can't wait to see what you create!  

My card is created on a Calypso Coral card base.  I added a layer of Balmy Blue cut with a scalloped die.  I cut a layer of white card stock with a stitched rectangle die on the top.  I stenciled raindrops on the white panel.  The little ducks are stamped in black and colored with Copic Markers.   I used the Neat and Tangled Eggstra Special stamp set for the ducks.  The umbrella is paper pieced using the Sunny Studios Rain of Shine stamp set.  The puddles are stamped in Balmy Blue using the same set.  

The sentiment is stamped in black using the MFT BB Rain or Shine stamp set.  I added the same paper on the envelope that I used on the umbrella.  I completed the inside using the same layers as on the front of the card and added a little duck inside for fun.

Happy Easter Sketch Saturday #559

 Good Morning Everyone...

We have a great sponsor this week:

Polkadoodles!!

 

Polkadoodles has generously offered a £6.75/3 digi stamps voucher to their shop!

Here is sketch #559

My card is created on a white card base.  I covered the front panel with a piece of fun Spring paper I found in my stash.  A rectangle  of yellow flowers was added to follow the sketch.  I cut two white borders to add to each side of the rectangle.   The little girls are from Neat and Tangled stamps--Cottontail Cuties.  I used the matching dies to cut them out.   I colored them with Copic Markers.  A grass border was cut  on the bottom with green card stock.  A few enamel dots were added to complete my card.
