It's Just Us Girls Photo Inspiration Week

Our Hostess for this weeks Photo Inspiration Challenge is
Cheryl
and she has chosen a Beauti!
 
 
 
I just loved the colour of those chairs so decided
to ink up a new stamp and create a summery scene.
I used a white ripple card stock as my base
and then framed my scene with colours from the photo.
I used the following items on my card -
White card stock
Orange/Aqua paper
For the scene I used Repeat Impressions Stamps
3415Chair/3412Birds
Cut out a second one and inked with Memento Potter's Clay
Also used Memento Summer Sky and Pistacchio
Tim Holtz Dried Marigold
Sentiment and Reeds from Gina K Designs
Pearls to the corners.
 
As this is the last challenge for the month I would like to
Thank our Guest Linda for her lovely creations she shared with us.

Hope to see yours soon.

Colour Throwdown #352

 
Here I am again with a card I made for the
new challenge at Colour Throwdown and I am
loving the colours and the little bucket for inspiration.
 
I am really disappointed with how my card
didn't photograph well at all. I tried all sorts of
things but nothing came close to just how nice
the colour combination matched.
I have used white card stock and found this
gorgeous iridescent green card stock for my
backing that just matches the green perfectly.
I got out my Stampin' Up Four Feathers
die/stamp and inked on white & grey paper
with Memento London Fog. The bigger feather is
inked with Tim Holtz Peacock Feathers and I
also inked one in Vellum
The background was made by inking an acrylic block
with Peacock Feathers & Memento New Sprout
and stamped onto my card stock.
I backed that by popping it to a scored border.
Added a button and some variegated cotton
Again I was disappointed how my sentiment
isn't as clear as it should be. I used
Spellbinders Sentiments 6.
 
 
 
Thanks for dropping in and hope you will
come back soon.

Challenge #228 at Try Stampin' On Tuesday

The new sketch over at Try Stampin' on Tuesday
is a real easy one Thanks to Sarah.
As you can see below I made mine ever so easily.
 

Here is Sarah's Sketch
 


Not too much explaining about this card. I have made several
using this Marianne die - LR0139
and similar to this sketch
so it was pretty easy for me to do again.
I have used a pearl patterned paper as my base
gold as a backing
also a shimmery pink which I cut out from
Spellbinders - Opulant Ovals
Used own ribbons and a few pearls.
I just love this Lady as she is so elegant.

So there you have it.
Hope you will pop over to our blog
and see what the other Designers created.

Till next time
