Sunday Stamps! #129: Hello Friend

Hello! Happy Father's Day to those special guys in your life.  I sent my dad the "Worlds Greatest Dad" card I made awhile back. I hope he enjoys it as much I did making it!  You can see it HERE .

Today's card was made for the new color challenge at Sunday Stamps!:

I love to water color and I love flowers, so this was a very fun card to make.  I tried to keep it bright with a lot of white space.  Colors I used are: Wisteria Wonder, Tip Top Taupe, Cucumber Crush and a very small amount of Pear Pizzazz.

    This is a beautiful card. Did you free hand lines in the two corners of the card? What did you use for the lines?

      Thank you for sweet comment Lora! The corner lines are from an image in the Helping me Grow stamp set. 😀

    The details on your card are fabulous! I love how you've framed the images on the edges with washi and fun little stamps. And the die cut sentiment is fabulous!

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday!  Right now I am knee deep in making decorations for my daughter's upcoming baby shower next weekend and the theme is Winnie the Pooh! lol :)  I am going to be a grandma for the first time and all I can say is that I am really is exciting! I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink.

I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
