Isn't this a fun sketch?! I'm definitely pinning it so I can use it again later! It is this week's fun challenge at Create with Connie and Mary. One of my goals for this month is to stamp something every day. It might be a card for a challenge, a project for stamp club, or something to sell in my little space at a local shop. Today I wanted to do a challenge because I love them and I do miss doing them. I have club this Friday, so you'll be seeing a few of those projects in the days to come!
If you've followed my blog for a while, you know how much I love my Stampin' Up! and blogging friends. As I was emailing with my friend Kathy this weekend, she asked if I had gotten the new stamp set and ribbon/brad bundle that's coming up for Sale-a-bration. Well, I had but hadn't used them yet. She inspired me to pull those out tonight and try to make a card with them. I can tell by the way it turned out that I'm a bit rusty, but hopefully I'll be churning out works of art with it by the end of the month!
Stamps: Fresh Vintage (Sale-a-bration), Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Lucky Limeade, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso
Paper: Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Whisper White, Everyday Enchantment designer paper (Sale-a-bration)
Tools/Accessories: Big Shot, Tasteful Trim die, sponges, color spritzer, Everyday Enchantment Ribbon & Brad pack (Sale-a-bration)
Remember that Sale-a-bration begins on January 24th and runs until March 31st.
Wow Rita, the colours are so pretty together. Awesome job with the sketch!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Rita! Love everything from the colo combo to the layout! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice - love how you've used these new products, Rita. Thanks for playing at CCMC this week and Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous Rita! I love the tasteful trim die on it and the gorgeous colours you chose. Glad I inspired you :) It's funny I hadn't even noticed that border stamp in the set, I had to go check that it was actually in it. I love the spotty paper especially.
ReplyDeleteLove this card! I love the paper and the stamps and you have executed this perfectly. Thanks for playing the Create with Connie & Mary challenge this week!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Rita. It's beautiful! Great interpretation of the sketch and all the florals and patterns together are so lovely.
ReplyDeleteOh Rita, this is gorgeous! The colors are so fresh together and the mix of patterns so very chic and elegant. I love the way you've added the border stamp below the flower image--such a designer touch. Perfect card, my friend! so glad you joined us at CCMC!
