Inkspirational #187

Hi All

A new challenge starts at Inkspirational today and Marlena has chosen:

'Gold Dipped'


I had fun making this card. I used the same stamp 'celebrate artsy' from STAMPlorations and stamped in onto the card with 3 different colour inks from Catherine Pooler. Then I used delicata gold ink of some card just stamping if different areas so when I cut the die from Winnie and Walter it would look like just the edges had been dipped in gold! Added the die onto fun foam for dimension.

Now lets see what the team have for us for here

I will enter this into:

AAA Cards-use one 3rd and optional bright colours-I went with the twist.
CASology-Color-not much else here except white spaces and splashes of colour!

Have a Beautiful Day

Hi All

A card for you today inspired by a few challenges:




White embossed the flower on vellum and die cut it. Die cut just one of the leaves.
Arranged it all on eggshell embossed card (although hard to see in the photo-raining here!) and stitched dies.
The sentiment is from the same set.

Entering into:

Altenew May Inspiration-got the idea for wrapping the leaves around the panel from this photo plus using the embossed background
Just Add Ink-well these flowers in this photo are where the initial idea came from!
CAS on Friday-white on white
CASology-Mother-think this makes for a lovely Mothers Day card.

Enjoy your day x

Can you see it!!

Hi All

I made this card for my Dad who has just been in hospital having eye cataracts surgery.

This is a test for him to see if he can read it...can you??


My Dad's smile sure does make my world brighter!

This idea popped into my head when I saw the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch-just flipped the sketch and done!

I will also enter it into Addicted to CAS-contrast...black and white are pretty good contrasts!

Have a fun day x

Mums!

Hi All

Popping in with a card for a few challenges.


It is not Mother's Day in Britain this week (our's was in March!), but isn't this sentiment true all year round??
I know it is for my Mum-she is the one that holds us all together and I am thankful everyday for her.


Card was initially inspired by CASology-Mothers.

I knew I wanted to use this sentiment and stamp but needed some colours. After a hunt I found a combo I liked at CAS Colour and Sketches-I hunted high and low for a darker green button but this was all I could find but I do like the pretty flower pattern on it, which I thought suited the card!

The flower image is from Visible Image and the sentiment is from Verve which unfortunately  is now closed.

Enjoy the day x
