Wetlands CAS - PP222

Clean and simple thank you card... That's the theme for this week's challenge at the paper players. I already had the Wetlands stamp sitting on my desk from another card I made earlier in the week, so I figured I might as well use that. I tried to keep the colors neutral and natural. It's definitely a simple card...

Birthday Greetings - NAC115

Hey look, not a Christmas card for a change! I was starting to get a bit tired of Christmas cards, so I figured I'd make a birthday card for this week's sketch challenge at Nacho Average Challenges. I let the DSP take over the show for this card. It's nice and splashy, without being too overwhelming, which I like a lot. I love this color combination, I'm not sure if I'd have thought to do it myself.

Pink Climbing Flowers - NAC109

This week's sketch challenge from Nacho Average Challenge automatically made me think of lines of thread. So, I wrapped a bunch of linen thread around a piece of cardstock, and then decided to add some little flowers to climb along it, which reminds me of a trellis in the garden.

Ink: Soft Suede

 

Paper: Soft Suede, Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzaz

 

Misc: Linen Thread, Itty Bitty Punch Pack, Pearls, Glue Dots

Bright Birthday - TSSC310

Wow, it hasn't been a good week for card making or blogging. Been feeling kinda under the weather, not sure if it's allergies now that spring has finally appeared in Quebec or if it's a cold, but I've been spending the time I usually spend crafting in the evenings sleeping instead!

 

Here's a card I made for the sketch challenge at Techno Stamper. I think I pulled out 4 different sets for this card. Not sure if I really like it or not, but it's growing on me. The colors were for another challenge from a Facebook group.

 

I created a mask for the bottom with a circle framelit, and stamped with the En Francais background stamp on top of it to create the round part at the bottom.

 

Recipe (all Stampin' Up!)
 

Stamps: En Francais, Simple Stems, Summer Silhouettes, Wetlands

Ink: Melon Mambo, Old Olive, Tangerine Tango

Paper: Melon Mambo, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla

Misc: Circle framelits, Tangerine Tango ribbon (retired), Neutrals candy dots, Scallop Oval punch, Oval punch, Scallops Embossing folder

Masculine Birthday Card - PPA189

Today marks one month since I got around to starting this blog! I've managed to post a new project every day, and have gotten many more hits than I was expecting! Thanks everyone!

This card was inspired by the weekly sketch at Pals Paper Arts. I think Wetlands is one of my favorite stamp sets, and makes a great guy card.

 

It's a very easy card to reproduce, but there are many layers!

Stamps: Wetlands

 

Ink: Black Stazon, Baked Brown Sugar

 

Paper: 2013-2015 In-Color DSP Stack, Whisper White, Baked Brown Sugar, Pistachio Pudding card stocl
