Crafting Forever Sketch

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using the sketch below.

I'm a huge fan of sketch challenges, and this one is no exception. For my card, I decided on a simple color palette of Lemon Lime Twist and Call Me Clover. From there, I picked a background stamp set to add some interest to the cardstock and then started building the rest of the card. I love the mix of patterns that resulted. As the last touch, I added some fun Lemon Lime Twist Ombre Ribbon.

Bingo Thank You

Today’s cards were given to all the participants at my Spring Bingo event. I found the idea for this card from Stamp with Paper Panda. I modified her cards a bit to suit my own purposes, but kept the design the same. This was the perfect card to use some of the Color Theory DSP stack.

Folded Flowers

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a fabulous flowers card. Instead of stamping with flowers, I decided to focus on some of our gorgeous floral DSP. This particular piece is from the Cake Soiree DSP pack. I featured this card at April's stamp club where we scored and folded to create this amazing double pleated fold. For the measurements and tutorial, check out Julie @ The Way We Stamp.

As a bonus, you are left with four great triangles from cutting the DSP. I used those triangles to make a bonus card! All the ladies at stamp club picked different DSP and really made this card their own. Love it!

Pick a Pen

Today’s card is so incredibly cheery. I love the fun festive colors and the cute repeating pen image. I decided to color the pens with the colors featured in the DSP and love the results. Coloring this card was very meditative. I love these simple and easy cards.
