Perfectly Pears for Sunday Stamps!

 It's Sunday and today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! Yahoo!  I love card challenges because it makes you think outside the box and at the same time gives you something to create with whether it be a color challenge or a sketch challenge.  

For this weeks creation, I focused on the new Online Exclusive Bundle called Perfectly Pears.  This bundle is part of a suite and the products in the suite are gorgeous. 

For this particular creation, I focused on the adorable set of pears and a few of the coordinating dies.

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 using one of the patterns of Painterly Pairs 12" x 12" DSP as my color guide.  I followed the same colors and coloring for the large die cut branch which was originally just a Basic White piece.

Below is this weeks new sketch challenge created by Heidi.

 My stamped and colored pears were adhered to a Basic White layer that was embossed with the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder (retired). 

Lastly, I added some Timid Tiger cardstock die cut flowers and a few Pressed Flower Motifs (love these) to pull everything together.

Pretty Florals for Sunday Stamps!

Happy Independence Day weekend!  Today, starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! and this week we are working with a sketch by Lisa.  To me this sketch is perfect to showcase flowers.  I chose to highlight the Florals in Bloom 12" x 12" DSP and added a few other fun products to complete my design.

I hand cut out three flowers from the beautiful DSP and then added some die cut Granny Apple Green leaves and Garden Green sprigs to create a floral scene.

Next, I embossed a Basic White cardstock piece with the Damask Designs Embossing Folder and then added two thin strips of DSP highlighting the color Secret Sea.  This was then added to a piece of Moody Mauve cardstock and finally to a Basic White card base.
For fun, I added a few Moody Mauve and Secret Sea die cut flowers from the Impressions Abloom Bundle and placed them around my floral scene.

Finally, I added my sentiment (stamped in Secret Sea) and a Strawberry Slush Bakers Twine bow.  Here's this weeks new sketch challenge.

Scenic Adventure for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday! Can I just say how fast time flies in the summer? :0 

I have been running in all directions and haven't had much time to visit my beloved craft room as I normally would. That being said, I did find time to create with the new Scenic Adventure Bundle for our new color challenge at Sunday Stamps! and it does not disappoint.

I love the outdoors and the Scenic Adventure is absolutely gorgeous!  This card reminds me of the trip my daughter and I took in Washington hiking Rainier Mountain.  It was breath taking and this card exemplifies that experience.

To create my card, I started by blending Pumpkin Pie ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. Next, I die cut the mountain range using Secret Sea cardstock and sponged in a little White craft ink for my snow.  I then added snow caps using Basic White cardstock.
Next, I die cut 2 tree lines using Mossy Meadow and Garden Green cardstock that I sponged with ink.  Next was the water. I stamped the water image using Balmy Blue ink onto Balmy Blue cardstock and wall-a! A beautiful scene was created.

My card follows this weeks new color challenge at Sunday Stamps! below.
