My card uses some stencils and a stitched hexagon die:

Lush Leaves and Happy Hibiscus Gina K Designs stencils inked with Gina K Wild Dandelion, Marigold, Sunkissed Coral, Coral Reef, and Light/Medium/Dark Spruce.

The sentiment is from Gina K Tropical Silhouettes.

I followed their 3-2-1 recipe with layers, used red, yellow and green, a sentiment, and added some shiny embellishments as my extra twist.

Continuing the Christmas challenge at

Try A Sketch On Tuesday

My card used some papers from my stash of CTMH.  I embossed the bottom panel with a new Spellbinder's folder, Festive Greetings, and placed Gina K Designs die cuts from Winter Wonderland inside the circle. The sentiment is foiled with silver and I added some silver shimmer dots.

Stripes

 Inspired by Can You Handle the Pressure challenge "Stars and/or Stripes"

My card used the debossed side of an embossed panel from Spellbinder's Cottage Wall 3-D folder. I ink blended in the debossed wells of the flower and leaves, then lightly rubbed Outdoor Denim ink over all.  The sentiment is from Gina K Designs stamp and die set Spring Things stamped in the denim ink. Embellishments are Fresh Sprout from Trinity Stamps.

Sending Hugs

 

This week's sketch challenge at Atlantic Hearts

My card used so many different things from my stash - Gina K Designs houses from the Winter Wonderland set, Best Friend background stamp from My Favorite Things, sentiment from Avery Elle Hugs set, arrows and hearts from a tiny Simon Says Stamp set, plaid paper from Authentique that I got in 2019!  I made the tiny envelopes.

I really had fun making this. Hope you will play along, too, and share your card at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

Joyful Christmas in July

 Joyful today for summer days...but crafting for another season. It's always fun to go through the Christmas stash in July and make some cards.  It's the second most used kind of card after birthdays, so very helpful to get a head start! 

Try A Sketch On Tuesday has two sketches and a month-long challenge for Christmas in July.

My card uses a Spellbinder's embossing folder (Hexi Snowflake, July24), Gina K Designs Ornamental Trees die, some green gold card, and a sentiment die from Savvy that's been in my stash for many years.

Sweet Summer Wishes

 

Wonderful new sketch at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge!!

My card used a reverse frame technique from Natasha Foote with Altenew's Nesting Arches.  The berry clusters are from Gina K Designs newest kit - Strawberry Harvest embossing folder, dies, and stencil; sentiment from Sunny Days and Breezy Nights. The inks I used were inspired by Meghann Andrews: Medium and Dark Cranberry, Grass Green, Medium Spruce, and Sweet Corn.

Hope you will play along!  The challenge runs through Sunday, July 5th.
