Blue Beauty with Indescribable Gift

I had a chance to go away last weekend and make cards to my heart's content. :)  I decided to work on a few challenges while I was there and came up with this card for the Paper Craft Crew challenge #141.  I love doing triple time stamping whenever I see sketches like this so I had to give it a try again.  Of course this isn't really triple time stamping, but it sounds better than double time stamping so I went with it! lol


I stamped the flowers on watercolor paper using black StazOn ink and colored it in with an aqua painter using Stampin' Up! ink pads or reinkers when I wanted colors a little darker.  



Just a couple more pics to look at. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Apple Blossom Birthday

Today's card was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #179.  It's a clean and simple sketch and I love that about it.  I was in the mood to do a little water coloring...if that's what you call it when using an aqua painter. lol  Either way I enjoyed it even though it's a little time consuming.  


I used Melon Mambo, So Saffron, Wild Wasabi and Sahara Sand ink pads to color in my flowers.  I stamped a little on the inside and you can see it peeking out of the top left corner in the first picture I took of my card.


Here is the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches that I told you I liked so much.  Make sure you check out the great cards by the design team if you haven't had a chance yet.  It's always fun to see how one sketch inspires so many different creations.

Indescribable Gift

I finally got some new sets from the Occasions Catalog that is coming out on January 6 for Stampin' up and wanted to use all my stamps as soon as I could!  I had a few ideas going through my head, but I've only been able to make this one card so far.  Since my niece's birthday is so close to Christmas I've heard it through the grapevine that she would like cards that are NOT winter themed.  No problem this time around.  I chose to use the new set Indescribable Gift.  It reminds me of an apple tree in my back yard.  Every year I go out and take pics of the thousands of beautiful flowers that bloom on it.  Sometimes I stand under it and take a pic up into the sky.  The blue is just beautiful behind all the lovely flowers.  That's where the inspiration came for this card.  I figured why not add the sun in the background.  I know...it's not yellow, but on bright days like that when the sky is blue it tends to be pretty white. :)


I added this pic so you could see how the flowers shine.  That's from using a VersaMarker and embossing over all the flowers, leaves and branches so I could brayer the sky in the background.


Thanks for looking and have a great day!
