New Challenge at Time Out!



Hello friends!
I'm here with my DT card for the new challenge at Time Out where we want you to be inspired by the quote above! You could be inspired by the whole sentiment or just choose one word/some words. 

I chose just coffee as my starting point and used a NBUS Three Room Studio stamp for creating a winter-themed card to send to a friend. The "wallpaper" is made with a Memory Box stencil and I used a woodgrain stamp for the floor after first masking the floor area and sponging it with lighter brown ink. The wallpaper background was supposed to be a lot more muted and soft but in my first version (that I ended up tossing) when using my brush for applying the ink I noticed the brush was dirty and my blue ink gave me an icky vomit green color... Not exactly what I was going for. Since I only have one brush I then had to use a blending tool, hence the strong color! The coloring of the main image is created with Copics.

New Challenge at Inkspirational!


Hi friends!
Very sorry to be one day late with my DT card for the new "Day" challenge at Inkspirational but better late than never I guess! I've used a Waffleflower image that has many things related to a fall day in it... But I've turned my card into a Christmas card by adding a Christmas sentiment! You tell me if it was a crazy idea or not! I just had this Christmas sentiment that I knew would be the perfect size and then I just tried to add a lot of red + some snow in the form of paint splatters. :)

Card for Challenges!

 HI friends!

I'm here with a quick post with a floral card for some challenges! I had my 40th birthday some weeks ago and I received this beautiful Altenew stamp from my crafty friend Milla and it's definitely a new favorite! I loved coloring this image with a combo of Copic and Altenew markers (sets D and E)! Thank you so much Milla! xxx

New Challenge at Time Out!


Hi friends!
I'm here with my DT card for the new challenge at Time Out where we want you to be Adventurous! 


I think anyone eating these colorful mushrooms is going to experience an adventure lol.... But  jokes aside, I was not actually thinking about misusing poisonous mushrooms when making this -I love going to the woods and pick mushrooms, it's one of my favorite things to do in the fall, and those trips and the joy of finding your favorite mushrooms often feel like a little adventure!

The stamps I used come from our generous sponsor Funky Fossil Designs. All the challenge details and prize info in our blog! Also don't miss the fabulous work by our guest designer Conil and play along for a chance to be called in to guest design as well! Happy crafting!

New Challenge at Inkspirational!

 


Hi friends!

I'm here with my DT card for the new challenge at Inkspirational where we are inspired by this fun photo:


I chose the black and white floor, also the squares on it... And then "white" flowers with touches of color from the balloons. The background card I used is a recycled menu from a wedding I attended some years back -it had this fun stripy backside and I couldn't help myself, I had to take it with me from the wedding! I think I stole my date's menu too. :) I knew there would come a time I could use it in my card making and here we are with the slimline cards being trendy and this was the perfect size! :) 

The flower is by Concord and 9th and I've water colored it. The sentiment, simply stamped, is by Colorado Craft Company. It's really jumbo sized -perfect for the slightly wider size of the slimline if you ask me! Also I find some of my jumbo sized sequins work for slimlines but not so well for regular a2 card bases -happy to get some use out of them as well. :)
