Just Us Girls #829 - Stencil Week

It's Stencil Week at Just Us Girls with our host Lisa.

This seems to be a popular challenge with stencils all the rage now.  I hope you'll take the time to make a card for us.  For inspiration, you can always count on the Design Team and our guest this month, Kellianne.

I pulled out PTI's Wild Blooms and colored them with Altenew inks.  After trimming the panel and running it through the Time Worn folder from SU!, I added it to a card base of PTI's Melon Berry.  The sentiment is from Honey Bee's My Favorite Flower.  

See  you in the gallery!

Time Out #316 - Photo Inspiration

 A photo submitted by team member Carol is our inspiration at Time Out.

I zoomed in on the windows and came up with this card.

The window die is from Memory Box cut in black. The view is a panel with a Rabbit Hole stencil in Salty Ocean for the sky and whatever green was left on my brush for the bushes.  To bring in more color, I used C9's Woven Stripes background stamp in CP It's a Girl ink as my wallpaper but the weave makes it look like the towel in the photo.  Or so I told myself.  lol  

We hope you'll join us for this challenge sponsored by Lawn Fawn.  The Design Team has cards to inspire you and the winner will receive a $25 store credit and an invitation to guest design.

Krafty Chicks #825

I'm trying to get some Christmas cards done while the weather says stay in and craft.  Last week I made one for Krafty Chicks and thought I would make another one this week for their CAS challenge.

I love these darling Snowdrops from PTI and while they present them as a Christmas image they could be used for other occasions.  As you know I don't have any Christmas sentiments with me so that will come later.  I will also be making a few more that are not so CAS. 

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

Color Hues #315

Any color pops with black and the challenge at Color Hues is yellow with black.  I took advantage of Frantic Stamper's closing sale to get a few things including this Altenew Poppy.

It's stamped in Altenew Citrus Burst and Fresh Lemon.  There is no stamp to color the leaves and I like it that way on this card.  The plaid background is from an Altenew paper pack and the sentiment is from The Ton.

Freshly Made Sketches #741

Not having a lot of supplies is really stretching my creativity and such was the case for Narelle's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.  I must have gone through my stash three times trying out things and finally settled on this.

The flowers are from Penny Black's Love Blooms, stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Distress Inks in Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed and Rustic Wilderness.  The frames are from their Frame It, watercolored with Scorched Timber.   The background is SU Timeworn Type and the sentiment is a BetterPress.
