Happy Friday! Today I have a Happy Hibiscus card, made with a plaid background, to share with you. This card was made for our December Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge, where the theme was plaid. Since Christmas is now over, which I hope you had a very Merry one, it’s time to look forward to some warmer weather. And to me, nothing says that it’s warming up, like flowers. These bright hibiscus flowers are really easy …
Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Winter Wonderland. We hope to inspire you with our creations today! The lineup is at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal. A winter wonderland can mean so many things, and for me, I think of the days when I lived in Ohio. I grew up there, and there was plenty of winter, sometimes a wonderland and …
It’s been a while since I have shared some alternatives, but here are the October 2024 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives that I came up with. I really like the Nests of Winter suite in the catalog, so I was excited to see a coordinating Paper Pumpkin kit. Maybe it’s the birds? My grandmother always had birds, so I’m sure that’s why I am particularly fond of them. Here is the suite that coordinates, as well as …
Today, I have a Thoughtful Wishes Sympathy Card made with the color Wild Wheat. This sympathy card was made for our monthly Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge. Our theme this time was a sketch challenge, and here is what it looked like. The inspiration for the color palette came from the coordinating DSP, called Thoughtful Journey. To make the card I have a YouTube video below, walking you through the steps on how I made this …
Happy Friday!! Today for #TGIFC500, I am tearing it up with the Iconic Imagery stamp bundle. The #TGIFC challenge this week is a torn paper technique, and it’s oh so fun! It’s a fantastic way to show layers and incorporate coordinating colors on your project. For this card, I was able to show different layers of blue and tie in the gold, all by tearing the paper. Oh, and to balance out the torn look, …
Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, the theme is Random Acts of Kindness. We hope to inspire you with our creations today! You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal. Nothing says random acts of kindness to me, than sending a card to someone without a special occasion. You get to surprise someone and remind them how special they are …
Today I have a Happy Birthday card for you made with the new Happy Hibiscus stamp bundle. This pretty birthday card is for #TGIFC498, and our theme this week is a sketch challenge. This kind of challenge is actually my favorite! I just love having half of the card already made for me. The design is already there, so all I have to do is customize it to make it my own. To do that, …
Happy Friday! Today is another TGIF Inspiration Challenge, and I am using the Sophisticated Sled bundle. This week’s inspiration challenge has so many options in it to use. The black portion actually looks like fur up close, there’s gold elements, and lots of layers. It’s such a great photo, because it is bound to be interpreted differently from so many people. I chose to pick the main colors out of it. I have combined Basic …
