Perseverance

Good Morning,

I love today’s project! It turned out just as I had hoped. I had seen a short video clip of swimming koi and noticed many of them had large areas of white on them.

I thought about how I could achieve this.

As with my previous card using the smaller fishes; I used the Stamparatus to build the layers.

Using sponge daubers to apply the ink; I started with a little bit of Gray Granite. Added Poppy Parade around the head and tip of the tail, then added some Pumpkin Pie.

I was careful not to add ink to the middle of the body. The final step was inking the whole thing with versamark. This was stamped twice to ensure good coverage and then heat embossed with clear powder.

Pool Party and Soft Sea Foam ink was added around the fish to bring out the “white” parts and the illusion of water. A light spritz with water added to the effect.

The final piece was mounted on to Gray Granite card stock and then a Soft Sea Foam card base.

Ihope you like this as much as I did.

The supplies used are listed below and linked to my 24/7 online store.

Inspire.Create #018

Hi there Everyone,

Today I am sharing my entry for the Inspire.Create.Challenge.

You can see what the design team have created here!

I decided to use one of the retiring stamp sets, Cool Treats and coordinating dies and mixed them with a retiring colour palette.

I started by constructing the cad base, first of all with Tempting Turquoise and adding Peekaboo Peach and Wild Wasabi. Finally, a white layer was stamped with the sprinkles image with Tempting Turquoise ink.

The central topper was made by adding a 3 inch square of Whisper White to Wild Wasabi and Peekaboo Peach layers.

The ice cream cones were cut from Crumb Cake card stock. First and second generation Sweet Sugarplum ink was used to stamp the ice cream.

These were adhered to the topper with dimensionals.

Finally, the word “sunshine” was die cut from Tempting Turquoise card stock.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.

Lovely Happy Birthday

Good Morning!

I’ve made another large card for today’s project. This one features the Whole Lot of Lovely designer series paper.

The base was made from Tangerine Tango card stock which was cut lengthways at 5-7/8 inches and then folded in half. Keep the leftover strip for later.

A 5-3/4 inch square of patterned paper was added to the front.

Two 3-3/4 inch squares of Tangerine Tango were cut to make the topper. One was covered with patterned paper.

The plain square was adhered flat to the card base with Snail adhesive. The patterned piece was added at an angle with dimensionals.

Using the strip of leftover card stock, punch out six flowers with the Pansy punch. Also cut three sets of leaves from Old Olive card stock with the Leaf Punch.

Each of the flowers were lightly spritzed with water and scrunched. Once dry, two flowers were layered together with glue dots.

The flowers and leaves were arranged in the corner. Black rhinestones were added to the centres.

I used my stamparatus to make sure the sentiment was stamped well. Using the tool allowed me to stamp twice in the same place to give a very crisp image. I cut some banner ends and adhered with Snail adhesive.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

Hi there everyone,

As it is Friday, today’s project is my entry for the Freshly Made Sketch challenge.

This week’s challenge has been set by Linda. You can see what the design team have created here!

This is the card I have designed.

I have used Peekaboo Peach to make the card base.

Some Tutti-Frutti designer series paper was cut to 5 by 3-1/4 inches and adhered along the right hand side of the card.

The topper was made using a 3-1/2 inch square of Whisper White card stock which was adhered to some Lemon Lime Twist card stock.

The first part of the sentiment was stamped with Flirty Flamingo ink. This was then added to the card with dimensionals.

To decorate, the fruit from the Lemon Zest stamp set were stamped with Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist and Pumpkin Pie. The images were punched out.

Black ink was used to add the second portion of the sentiment on to the lemon. The fruit were then added to the card using snail and dimensionals.

A few glitter enamel dots finished the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project. The supplies used are listed below.
