Sunday Stamps! #315

Hello crafty friends! It's Sunday and that means that we have a new challenge at Sunday Stamps! for you to play along with.  This weeks new challenge is perfect for creating those last minute summer birthday, thinking of you or thank you cards as we face the dog days of summer. :) 

Here's what I made using several different stamp sets and dies.

I love the Oceanfront stamp set and haven't used it yet this summer (:0) in any of my summer creations, so that is where I started.  Knowing the colors in the challenge, I stamped the sky using Lemon Lolly ink, the water using Tahitian Tide and stamped the ground using Crumb Cake ink as my neutral color.

Next, I die cut several greenery pieces from the Textured Floral Dies using Lost Lagoon and Shaded Spruce cardstock. I then added Crumb Cake stamped rocks and a Calypso Coral stamped star from the Sea Turtle stamp set. 
My sentiment is from the Circle Sayings stamp set and I added a few birds from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set.

Next, I die cut some clouds from the Waves Dies, and assembled my card front using  Dimensionals for the rock, star and clouds.
Lastly, I added some Lemon Lolly Adhesive Back  Solid Gems to finish it off.

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...

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...
