Sunday Stamps! #185

Happy Sunday, crafty friends! Today starts a new challenge at Sunday Stamps!. This week we are working with a  color challenge and here's what I made using the Beautiful Promenade Bundle found on page 107 of the annual catalog.
I had planned to use the Accented Blooms stamp set but as I sat down to actually create this weeks challenge card, I saw the Beautiful Promenade stamp set and decided it was time to ink it up.  I honestly have tell you that what I love about challenges is that it forces you to "go outside the box" when you are working with a stamp set.  Having said that, I'm 100% sure I would not have put these colors together with this set - yet I think it worked pretty darn well. :D

The name of the stamp set says it all. Aren't those flowers gorgeous? There are many different possibilities for coloring and stamping the flowers. This is a Two Step stamp set, but you wouldn't have add the second layer to the flower to achieve a beautiful flower.  I did use my Stamparatus to create these flowers and have a quick video showing you what I did below.





Here's this weeks color challenge at Sunday Stamps!
To play along, create a project using a minimum of 3 colors from the sketch above and submit your creation to the challenge blog by Friday, August 24, 2018.

Quilt card

This is a quilt card I made back in January at my up line's (Chris Smith) home.  I added the embossed flower using  the Daydream Medallions stamp set along with the SAB stamp set Madison Avenue .  These two stamp sets work well together.  The flower petals were made with  the Floral Frames Framelits die.  I will probably store these two sets together. : )  Recipe: Daydream Medallions, Madison Avenue (SAB) and Vintage Verses (SAB) stamp sets; Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango card stock; Island Indigo, Versa Mark pad inks; White Emb. powder, Floral Frames Framelits, Postage Stamp punch, Square Lattice Emb. Folder, Pool Party SAB button and Whisper White Bakers Twine. Enjoy your day!  I have limited time to create my youngest child's birthday card...which is tomorrow!  Happy Stamping, and hope you get to stamp a latte!

Silly Old Bear Suite

 Happy Friday! Today, I have 2 very cute creations to share with you using the Silly Old Bear Suite . One Pooh Bear is a die cut right from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP , while the other Pooh Bear is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored with the new Golden Glow Stampin' Blends. Every image on 2 sheets of the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP can be die cut out using the Sweet Old Friends Dies !  How cool is that?! The first card I made (on the right side) uses the new In Color Crisp Cantaloupe.  I stamped the frame from the Sweet Old Words   Stamp Set using Crisp Cantaloupe and die cut it out using the coordinating Sweet Old Words Dies followed by another Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock layer.   I also die cut 2 honey pot images from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP and a tree stump from the Sweet Old Friends Dies.    I created a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" money holder card using a 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock scored ...
