Color Throwdown Challenge-Guest For October.

 Hello everyone.  Happy October Yay!  I'm so excited to be a Guest Featured Stamper for the Color Throwdown Challenge.  The colors are Green, Red, and Orange.  so much fun.  I have to say colors are so much fun to work with.

Without further ado here is my card for the Challenge...

I chose to use one of my Simon Says Stamp Monthly Kits.  This one is called Butterfly Blossoms.  I stamped the flowers and butterflies on off white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo ink.  I used the coordinating stencils to ink blend using the Colors from the Color Throwdown Challenge. 

 I ink blended with Simon Says Stamp Lucky ink, Catherine Pooler Apricot ink, and Gina K Designs Red Velvet ink.  I then fussy cut everything out leaving a border using my scissors.  

Next, I tore some cardstock green and vellum.  I cut out a red A2 heavy weight card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.  I then cut some pattern paper from the kit using Paper Rose Studio in Best Butterflies.  The paper was cut to 4 x 5 1/4.  I also cut out a sentiment from the pattern paper and glued it to some red cardstock.  I glued everything to my red card base and I popped up my flowers and butterflies with foam tape.  Lastly, I added some enamel dots from the Altenew Warm and Cozy set.

Well that finishes my card, I had so much fun making this card.  This was truly an Honor and exciting moment to be a Featured Guest Stamper for the Color Throwdown Challenge.  Thank you so much to the team and especially Susie. 

 I hope you join the challenge! Hugs💗

Have a Tweet-rrific Birthday

 Hello I am back with a Spring card.  I love hearing the birds at my house in the yard it's so nice. I see bunnies and squirrels everyday too.  I thought I would use some birds on my card today for a Birthday Card.

On my card today, I used the Simon Says Stamp Tweet Friend Stamp set that came in the March 2025 card kit.  I love this kit and this is the 2nd card Ive made with it.  I first stamped the birdbath and branches on a Neenah 110 pound panel using my misti stamping platform and memento tuxedo ink.  Later I stamped the birds also on Neenah with memento ink.  Everything was colored using my alcohol markers copic and 1 Ohuhu marker.

I fussy cut my birds and I stamped a sentiment with Versafine Black Onyx ink that I fussy cut too.  My sentiment strip I cut out with my paper trimmer. I ink blended my background with some Mustard Seed Distress Oxide ink and colored in some grass for my background.  I popped up 2 birds and my sentiments.  Everything else was glued with liquid glue and to a Neenah 110 pound A2 card base.  

I had so much fun with this card as it's not my usual colors that I normally use. I will be linking it up to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Happy Birthday Using Simon Says Stamp

Chunky Thankful Greetings Card

 Hello everyone.  I was super excited to play with my Simon Says Stamp Chunky Thankful Greetings Monthly kit that is from September 2024.

I first grabbed some Prima Full Bloom pattern paper 6x6.  I cut it to be A2 size 4 1/4x 5 1/2.  I then placed my paper into my stamping platform and stamped the Chunky Thankful sentiment in Versafine Onyx ink from the 6x8 Chunky Thankful greetings Stamp set.

Next, I stamped the greenery images with Hero Arts Hero Hues Moss ink.  I stamped the floral images in Hero Art Hero Hues Azalea ink.  The center images for the florals were stamped in Hero arts unicorn ink.

I then stamped and heat embossed my secondary sentiment on black cardstock with unicorn ink and white embossing powder.  I cut my sentiment and added it to my panel with a foam strip.  I glued my panel to a pink A2 card base.  Lastly, I added some sequins from the kit called Norther Lights.  I had so much fun making this card with beautiful pattern paper.  I can't wait to use this kit some more.
