Freshly Made Sketches #755

Donna's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches had me thinking and going through my stamps/dies until I landed on one I thought would work best.


It may be a little out of proportion and there is no sentiment but the rest is what the sketch calls for.  The background is embossed with Crackle Paint from SB on the top and Honey Bee's Rustic Brick Wall on the bottom which gave me a great place to hang my Altenew Houseplants. 

Thanks for dropping by and spending a bit of your day with me.

Freshly Made Sketchesd #748

Verena is hosting Freshly Made Sketches and her sketch made me think of my Houseplants die set from Altenew.


The polka dot paper scrap was the jumping off point and I made the pot in matching gray with pink flowers and added a pink strip accent.  The background is the Subtle folder from SU and the sentiment is from Altenew's One-Go Birthday.

Just Us Girls #819 - Mood Board Week

I'm the host for Mood Board Week at Just Us Girls and this is what I found to inspire you.


Here's a larger image so you can better see how many different things you have to choose from.


See that image in the middle?  That's the direction I took.


I used the same umbrella I used a few weeks ago from Honey Bee and filled it with the vines from Altenew's House Plants.  The branch is a die from MFT and the background is patterned paper from Altenew.  I left off a sentiment because I didn't know what to use or where to put it. 😁

I hope you'll join me and my team mates for this fun mood board challenge.

Just Us Girls Challenge #787 - Die Week

Elizabeth is our host for Die Week at Just Us Girls and she would like us to use floral dies.


That's an easy assignment for me since I have so many floral dies.  The difficult is in choosing one.


I decided to go with my new Altenew Houseplants.  The flowers are cut from W9 Cashmere and C9 Grapefruit, the leaves from a green in my stash with a bit of gray for the pot. Everything was shaded with Altenew inks and the basket hung in front of Altenew's Masonry Wall.  

The Design Team has plenty of lovely inspiration for you.  I hope you'll take a look and then make a card for the challenge.
