It's Pumpkin Spice Season!

 Hello there!  I have a card to share that I created for the Color Hues Challenge Orange and Green.  I love these colors, another amazing combo.  I first thought of oranges. 


Without further ado, here is my card...



I have been loving the Pumpkin Spice Coffees lately Hot or Cold I love both.  So when I seen the colors for this challenge I decided to make a Pumpkin Spice Coffee fall card.  I started out with Trinity Stamps Boo Brew Die Set.  I cut out the larger cup die with orange cardstock 65 pounds.  I cut out the stitched dies for the cup with white cardstock 110 pounds.  I ink blended those with Stampin Up Pumpkin Pie ink.  I cut out the whip with white cardtock and used W2 Copic Marker for some interest.  The leaf and squiggly stem is cut out with white cardstock 110 pounds and ink blended with Hero Arts Hero Hues Moss ink cube.  I glued my Pumpkin spice coffee together with liquid glue and added foam tape to the back.


I cut out a white cardstock panel 110 pounds 4 x 5 1/4.  I used A Colorful Life Designs Leaf Frame 6x6 Stencil (use VonFan10 to save)with the same Moss ink cube.  I love how it came out.  I cut out a pre printed sentiment that Unity Stamp Co. had sent me free with a purchase. I popped this sentiment up with foam tape after cutting it down with my paper trimmer.



I adhered everything to a A2 card base and that finishes this card.  I had so much fun creating for this challenge.  I will be back soon with another Blog Post.

The Color Hues Challenge #114

 Hello everyone.  I'm so honored to be Guest Designing for The Color Hues Challenge #114 Yellow and Green.  I love these colors and I honestly had a hard time with what to choose which is a great problem to have.  Color challenges are so much fun. Without further ado here is my card.






So It was actually a fun and tough decision on what to use as yellow and green can be used for a lot. I did decide on this fun New to me embossing folder and cutting die set from Simon Says Stamp called Alstroemeria Bunch.  I ran the embossing folder with Cilantro cardstock 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 from Lawn Fawn through my Spellbinders diecutting machine using the appropriate plates.  I then did the same with white cardstock.  I ink blended the green embossed panel with some Mowed lawn Distress Oxide ink.  I used the die and cut out the flower from the white embossed panel.  Luckily it was okay doing it that way because usually I cut first and than emboss. Anywho.



I then put my flower back into place on the white panel and ink blended it with Mowed Lawn and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide inks.  I cut my green embossed panel down and I found some We R Memory keepers pattern paper in my stash that was yellow and green..Yess.  I cut that paper to be 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  




Next, I glued my pattern paper to a A2 Neenah cardstock Solar White 110 pounds and popped up my green embossed panel with foam that has no adhesive and I just apply liquid glue to.  I then cut down my flower cutting the stem and popped it up onto my panel with foam tape.  I did use Copic markers for some interest on my flower and embossed background with G14 and Y15.  My gold foiled sentiment strip comes from a retired Essentials By Ellen foiled plate and coordinating die set.  I was happy to have this strip in my stash. I applied it with a foam strip and embellished with some yellow sequins. That finishes this card.  I hope you'll join us for this fun challenge.  

I had so much FUN creating this card and being a Guest Designer for the Color Hues Challenge.  Thank you to Nancy, Steph, and Team.  Hugs.

A Summery Card

 Hello everyone.  I have a Summer card today for 2 challenges that I just could not pass up. Without further ado here is my card.



I had in my mind to use this Papertrey Ink Beach Bag Stencil for the Inspired By Summer Challenge and I knew for The Color Hues Challenge I had to use Red and White.  So, I chose Neenah Desert Storm paper 80 pounds and ink blended the first stencil which are the bags with Gina K Designs Faded Brick Dye ink cube.  On the second stencil which is for the straps and designs on beach bags I used Gina K Designs White Pigment Dye ink. 


Next, I cut my background to look like the Inspired By Sketch.  I also cut a white cardstock panel to be 4 x 5 1/4.  I stamped a sentiment on a strip like the sketch with the same Faded Brick ink using MFT Stamps PI Sunny Days Ahead stamp set.  Finally, I glued everything to a A2 red card base.   I hope I inspired you to grab what you have and create.  I will be linking my cards to the following Challenges.  I had so much fun making this card and being motivated by these challenges.

I will be back soon with another Blog Post. Hugs. ☺
