NAC #4

This is my entry into the color challenge over at Nacho Average Challenge blog; the colors are Pink Pirouette, So Saffron and Certainly Celery. When I went to gather my papers I didn't have but a few scraps of Pink Pirouette so that made it a little more challenging for me but I'm happy with the outcome.
This photo makes the colors much brighter than they are, the card actually looks much softer in person.
I just got this stamp set yesterday and was eager to use it; its Stippled Blooms and I think I'll be using it often. I also used the Apothecary Framelits and paper piercing mat, the Fashionable Hearts Embosslits and the Postage Punch. Thanks for looking.

Wish You Were Here #126

In cruising the internet I found a challenge at Totally Papercrafts and am entering this card. I was looking for some inspiration the other day and came across this stamp set I bought sometime ago but haven't done anything with until now, its a Hero Arts set appropriately called "Wish You Were Here". The person I wish was here is my daughter, its been since mid December that's she's been here and I miss her. The chair is colored with Copic makers (still in the learning stages but getting better as I go), you can't tell but I popped the table lamp and the mirror is made using the smallest Spellbinders Fleur di Lis Rectangle die with a small silver piece in the middle along with some bling in each corner. Thanks for looking.

NAC #3

It's the third challenge over at Nacho Average Challenge blog; I'm enjoying playing along in the challenges and look forward to them each week. For my card base and ribbon I used Pool Part (one of my favorite colors) and the other papers are Domestic Goddess DSP. I cut squares of the DSP, glued them on a piece of Very Vanilla, used the Top Note die to cut it and then used the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder. I've done this "patchwork" type technique before and I really like the way it turns out. Thanks for looking.

You're Sweet

I'm entering this card in the color challenge over at Our Creative Corner. I've used Midnight Muse, Pretty in Pink and Marina Mist for my colors. Again I used the Papaya Collage stamp set and I also used You're Sweet stamp. The fancy frame is Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Rectangles. The flowers are made out of Pretty in Pink Subtles DSP and a scallop circle punch; cutting and rolling to form the flower. A piece of Night of Navy ribbon and some bling. Thanks for looking.

NAC 2

Nacho Average Challenge has a color challenge this week; More Mustard, Riding Hood Red and Lucky Limeade and this is what I came up with. I used the Papaya Collage stamp set on this one along with Finial Press (retired) embossing folder.  The color challenge wasn't as hard as I had expected and I really enjoyed making this card. Thanks for looking.

Thanks for looking.
