Inspire Create Challenge #223 – Use Your Scraps!

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is my design team make for the latest Inspire Create Challenge!

For Challenge #223 we are all creating projects using scraps!

You can see the other design team projects and take part in the challenge by clicking below!

I pulled out my box of Subtles cardstock scraps and die cut 2 squares using Stylish Shapes – these could be cut with a trimmer too.

The pieces were glued together for a patchwork look. To add a fabric texture I used the new Softly Woven embossing folder coming very soon!

The stitched edges were enhanced with a black pen and a simple sentiment banner was added over the top.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Inspire Create Challenge #222 – Hidden Message!

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is my design team make for the latest Inspire Create Challenge!

For Challenge #222 we are all creating projects using the theme, Hidden Message!

You can see the other design team projects and take part in the challenge by clicking below!

This isn’t my usual card style so I searched for something easy to create. I found a design by Simply Simple Stampin’ Connie Stewart.

The pocket element is made with designer series paper.

A 4×10 inch piece was scored at 5¾, rotated and scored again at 2 inches.

The paper was folded back, applying adhesive along the sides only, leaving the top “open”.

Baker’s Twine was added to the small section before folding back and stuck down. A “faux tag” was added and secured with a mini dimensional.

The tag element (3×5 inches) was made with White Willow and Basic Black Two Tone Cardstock. Scraps of DSP were added to the bottom and added the Happy Birthday sentiment from Cutest Crew.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

Inspire Create Challenge #220 – Single Layer Card!

Hello Everyone,

Today’s card is my design team make for the latest Inspire Create Challenge!

For Challenge #220 we are all making single layer projects!

No dimensionals today! 🤣

You can see the other design team projects and take part in the challenge by clicking below!

I have used the Nature’s Frame stamp set.

A 3-colour rainbow ink blend was created with Calypso Coral, Lemon Lolly and Balmy Blue – all from the Subtlest.

For a blend like this, I start with the yellow across the centre, as this will also create the orange and green bands where the colours overlap.

Some water droplets were added to lift the ink for a bleached look.

Once it was completely dry, the background was stamped in versamark ink and heat embossed with white powder.

A black sentiment from Scalloped Blooms was added and embellished with rhinestones.

Finally, some dots were added with a white gel pen!

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!
