Today’s card features one of my favorite stamps sets: No Bones About It. I initially bought this set for my son's dinosaur themed 2 year birthday party, but I've loved pulling it out time and time again to create something new. For this card I decided to feature three of the soon-to-be-retired In Colors: Mint Macaron, Delightful Dijon, and Cucumber Crush. I love the more masculine combination. I'm sure this card will be given to some little boy for his birthday. I took a piece of the Inside the Lines DSP and color in just a few of the pieces. I love the minimalist look! From there I added more DSP layers and a framed stamped Triceratops and sentiment. As a final touch, I stamped and hand cut a few leaves to add to my image.

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using one of the new Occasions Catalog suites! I had to showcase the Dragonfly Dreams bundle with the Inside the Lines DSP from SAB. I love the butterflies from the annual catalog, so the dragonflies are a perfect addition to my sets. Originally I was going to color the entire piece of Inside the Lines DSP, but then I remembered the great spotlight technique. I choose a small circle to die cut and then color with the new watercolor pencils. I love the effect and will definitely be using the pencils more. From there I added some layering pieces and a pretty die cut dragonfly.
