A Sympathy card for Sunday Stamps! #133

Hello, crafty friends.  I have a sympathy card to share with you today using the beautiful Limited Time stamp set called Thoughtful Branches for the new color challenge at Sunday Stamps!

I took the challenge literally, in that, I used the stamp and framelit that can be used either for leaves on a tree or as the petals in a flower and made a multi colored hydrangea flower.

I sponged Dapper Denim, Marina Mist, Soft Sky and Smoky Slate onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock and then stamped the leaf image over this using Dapper Denim.  I then die cut it out.  The leaves were stamped using Mint Marcaron.


Here's the exclusive, limited-time stamp set. Available until August 31, 2016, or while supplies last.

    I am starting to see this stamp set popping up on Pinterest and I have to say that your card has to be my favourite so far! How brilliant to use the tree leaves image as a Hydrangea-like flower, and in such gorgeous colours!

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. The 3rd flower was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink. I first stamped off onto scratch paper and then used full strength for the detailed/outline stamp. Next, I d...

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...
