Tranquil Typewriter

Today’s card features the retiring P.S. You’re the Best Stamp Set, Tranquil Textures DSP, Scattered Sequins Embossing Folder, and Tranquil Tide and Fresh Fig In Colors. I seriously love the typewriter stamp set and don’t think I will be selling it after it retires. I need it in my life! For this card, I stamped a few pieces and constructed my own typewriter with simple message. From there, I took the colors and layered some dsp plus an embossed piece of dsp onto my coordinating cardstock. I really love the color combination of Tranquil Tide and Fresh Fig. I will definitely miss these! Thankfully our new Pretty Peacock In Color is similar to Tranquil Tide (although more blue than green). And I still have Blackberry Bliss for a dark purple.

Typewriter Wishes

Today’s card is a CASE from Allison Okamitsu @ Nice People Stamp. I loved the collage style of the example card and set out to make my own version. I changed up some colors and accessories, but kept the design the same. Really love this card!

Birthday Note

Today’s card has been sitting half done for months now. I had a whole stack of these unfinished cards and took a Saturday to knock them out. This card is a play on a card design from last year. I switched out the main stamped image but kept the rest the same.

Textured Typewriter

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using DSP from July's B3G1 Free DSP sale! A variety of paper packs are included. Check the sale out below.

For my card, I pulled out the fun papers from the Tranquil Textures DSP. I pulled the fun dotted paper to act as my base and then started adding layers. Such a simple card, but it really highlights the great patterns and coordinating of the paper packs. To finish out my card, I stamped a simple typewriter with a message.
