Fuchsia

Today I got to play with a new stencil from Spellbinder's, Layered Magical Fuchsia. I don't have a Betterpress, or the embossing folder for this, so had to do some pen work myself after stenciling. The card uses Freshly Made Sketch #737. I stamped the outer panel with Gina K Designs Elegant Script Background in Soft Stone ink. I used Altenew's Nesting Arches die set. The floral inks Plum Punch card stock are Gina K. I found the right sized sentiment in an Altenew Pain-A-Flower set, Magnolia Rustica, and heat embossed it.

Blooming Branches

Happy Monday!

Ready for some crafting? I have an inspiration card for this week's new challenge at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

My card uses Blooming Branches die, embossing folder and layering stencil bundle, inked with Sweet Mango and Wild Dandelion.  I cut a panel with a large circle and then arranged my florals across the top.  The leaves came from a different set, One Day At A Time. The inks used were Light Spruce, Tranquil Teal, and Cadet Blue. 

Directly on the card front I stenciled Altenew's Square Weave Pattern with Sandy Beach ink. Foam tape was used for the top and bottom. I added some mini embellishments and then some black lines on the Tranquil Teal card stock strips.

Also linking my card to Just Add Ink #785 - used both stencils and dies on my card.

Courtyard Silhouettes

Challenge #695 is new today at 

Try A Sketch On Tuesday!

I used a recent Gina K release, Courtyard Silhouettes, for this card but tried an inking technique with the bouquet. I used Zig clean color pens to color the stamp in the Misti so I could get a watercolor-like effect. The sentiment is from the same set and embossing in gold.

Hoping you will play along at TSOT!  The Design Team loves seeing your creations.

There is also a 3-2-1 challenge on our sister blog Double Trouble. Check it out!

Happy Day

 Inspired by The Paper Players challenge 783, I used a slice of a stencil panel and a die cut. The stencil is Spellbinder's Cherry Chic (stencil of the month Nov'25), and the die is an old one from my stash- Cottage Cutz Cherries.  I found the sentiment in a very old CTMH set. A very CAS card - I just love that stencil!  I'm going to see if it will look like blueberries if I ink up with blues...

Mosaic Stencil

 

Home from my travels and happy to be playing in the craft room and working in the spring time sunshine outside, too.

My card today is for challenge #694 Try A Sketch On Tuesday

I have used the Mosaic stencil from Spellbinder's and two die sets of theirs for the blooms. The stitched hexagons are from Pretty Pink Posh, sentiment from Gina K Designs.

Flowers, layers, and stenciling also part of our sister challenge at Double Trouble!  Please play along with one or both. The Design Teams really love seeing your creations.

CAS Sympathy

 Inspired by several challenges, I ink blended an oval, stamped and die cut a floral from Gina K Designs Courtyard Silhouettes set. The sentiment is from that set as well.  I used soft stone, spruce and denim inks.
