For My Wonderful Mother ...

I was recently given this card template by Jenny Chilton which I just fell in love with.  Using the template I have designed my own card using a monochromatic colour scheme with the Stippled Blossoms, Just Believe, Just Thinking and the Delightful Dozen stamp sets.

This is the finished card with butterflies on the inside of the card made using the Core-dinations cardstock and the Beautiful Wings Embosslits.

Freshly Made Sketches #43 - Fifth Avenue Floral

I used a new technique for me on this card, using bleach to take the colour out of the cardstock.  France Martin has a great video tutorial on how to do this.  My colouring is a bit wonky, which did not show up until the bleach had dried and taken the colour out.

The challenge this week at Freshly Made Sketches is based on the following sketch:


Colour scheme is Real Red, Basic Black, Basic Grey and Whisper White.  Stamp sets are "Fifth Avenue Floral", "French Foliage" and "Just Believe".

Simply Stampin' Challenge #62 - Colour

For the challenge this week at Simply Stampin's Challenge I decided to have a go at making a card with a rectangle aperture.  This was done using the 1 1/4" and 1 3/8" square punches from Stampin' Up.

The colour challenge is to use the following colours:

When I saw this colour combination, I had serious doubt as to whether I could create a card that was not too in your face, but I guess that what a challenge is all about.  The stamp sets used are Just Believe, Nature Walk and Teeny Tiny Sentiments from Stampin' Up. 


The Very Vanilla top piece has been embossed using the Finial Press embossng folder, this has been layered onto a piece of Tangerine Tango DSP and then adhered to the Cherry Cobbler base card.


The butterfly from the Nature Walk stamp set was coloured with Stampin' Write Markers.  I needed to bring the Tangerine Tango into the card and decided that a little touch of this colour on the wings of the butterfly would work okay.


A piece of Tangerine Tango DSP has been punched with the Scalloped Edge Border Punch and adhered to the bottom of the Very Vanilla inside the card.
