HSS Color Challenge #150

Happy New Years my friends.  I hope that 2012 was good to you and I hope 2013 will be just as good or better.  I always look forward to making new goals, short and long, then look back to see if I actually achieved them.  Most times I do, but there are a few that never do get accomplished.

Today's card was inspired by two things.  First by the color challenge over at Hand Stamped Sentiments, as well as the pretty card that I CASed from the 2103 Spring catalogue.




Card Recipe:

Paper:  Textured White, Primrose Petals, Pool Party, Scraps.
Ink:  Pool Party.
Stamps: Hearts a Flutter, Hand Penned Holidays.
Accessories: Honeycomb embossing folder, sander, heart embossing folder, hearts a flutter die cuts, Pool Party embossing powder, dimensionals, Whisper White satin ribbon.


Thank you for stopping by!

    I love this card! That embossing folder missed my first order but is on my next order. I love the hearts down the side. Thanks for playing with us this week at HSS!

Today's card is inspired by two challenges, Create with Connie & Mary & Hand Stamped Sentiments .  I began on a piece of 3 x 6 Pool Party cardstock.  I really love this tone of blue.  The first layer is Pink Pirouette that has been run through my big shot, using the polka dot embossing folder.  I cut a banner using a piece of Regal Rose patterned paper then stamped it.  I also used some pretty designer paper, cut it into a banner, then added two clear rhinestones.  The center banner was stamped on Whisper White using Basic Grey ink.  I finished this card off with some gorgeous ruffled Pool Party ribbon (gotta get more of this, its amazing), a punched flower with a Rose colored button. Thank you for stopping by!  Alyson

This is a set that we will be making at my 'It's Time for Spring' card class.  I chose two challenges for my creation.  The color combo from CR84FN Color Challenge and the sketch from Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge . I began my creation on some Whisper White cardstock, then stamped these butterflies using my markers in Only Orange, Pretty in Pink and Bashful Blue.  You can hardly see in the photo, but I scorded 10 lines at the bottom and added some glitter. Here are the challenges: Please stop by again soon. Alyson

Colour Q Challenge ~150~

This next one was made by my crafter in training: way to go Mads!! Begin on some White cardstock.  Adhere a textured White mat onto the base.  To this I added textured Lucky Limeade and Poppy Parade.  Die cut flowers of your choice in Poppy Parade, followed by some punched out Daffodil Delight butterflies.  For the finishing touches add a coordinating button and sentiment.   Thank you for stopping by!   Alyson
