Inspired by...Berries and A New Card Sketch

 Hello everyone.  I'm so excited for this weeks challenge at Inspired by...Berries #IB374.  Also a New fun card sketch.  

Let's Get Started:



How are you inspired?






I was inspired by the berries, the background, the bowl, and the sketch. I tried to make my berries look like raspberries. I used products from Jaded Blossom and Lawn Fawn.
 I will have more details over on the Inspired by...Blog on Tuesday as that is my day over on the Blog.  

Don't forget to tag inspired_by_challenge on the socials. #inspiredbychallenges  #inspired_by_challenge

The Greeting Farm February 2025 Challenge

 Hello everyone.  I'm back to share a Valentine card I made.  I thought I would participate in The Greeting Farm February 2025 Challenge.  This challenge takes place in The Greeting Farm Fan Group on FB.

The Greeting Farm Rules:







I used a retired stamp called Love Couple from The Greeting Farm.  You may be able to ask for it at their next Farmers Market. I love this Anya and Ian.  So cute.  I stamped and heat embossed booth Anya, Ian, and the trio of hearts with Versafine black onyx ink and clear embossing powder.  I then colored them in with a mix of Copic Markers and OLO Markers.  I fussy cut my images leaving a white border.  Later, I embossed a sentiment from the same stamp set on red paper 65 pounds, I stamped and heat embossed with white ink and white embossing powder.  I also fussy cut out the sentiment.



On cream paper 110 pounds I ink blended the Scribbled Heart Stencil from Catherine Pooler using Poppy ink cube from Concord & 9th. I had to move my stencil over to ink more of the stencil for my slimline panel to have enough background for my card.  I used a Slimline die from My Creative Time to cut out my scribbled hearts background. I cut out a coordinating card base and glued everything to it.  I dip pop up my sentiment with foam tape and added some white gel pen accents. I did add some pink chalk to Anya and Ian's cheeks but it's very light. This card measures 7 3/8 x 3 1/2.  I had so much fun making this card.


Copic Markers Used:

Anya's Hair C6, C5, C4, C1, BV000
Anya's Dress OLO Marker R 0.5
Anya's Boots C4, C5
