Cheerful Thanks

Hi there,

It's always good to have a large amount of thank you cards on hand. Well, it's time for me to create some new ones because I've gone through my stash. For this card I went to Sketch Frenzy Friday SSF090712 for the layout of the card. I was also inspired by the Just Add Ink challenge #134 - Just Add . . . Polka Dots!




Here's my card:

The details are:

CS: Daffodil Delight, Lucky Limeade, Rich Razzleberry
DSP: Brights Patterns DSP (retired)
Stamp Set: Betsy's Blossoms, So Happy For You (Sale-A-Bration)
Ink: Rich Razzleberry
Tools: 1" Circle Punch
Embellishments: Lucky Limeade 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon, Brights Brads

Thanks for stopping by,

Cheerful Thanks

Happy Saturday!
Today started off cloudy and gray, but now the sun is out. Yeah! The sunnier weather inspired me to create a happy and cheerful card. This card is for a sweet former student who recently donated a game to my current class. I've been wanting to use the Hostess DSP Cheerful Treat and I thought this cheerful and colourful DSP would be perfect for her. I went to Clean and Simple Stamping for the sketch.

Here's the sketch:




















Here's what I came up with:



















The details for the card are:

CS: Melon Mambo (textured), Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Concord Crush, Lucky Limeade
DSP: Cheerful Treat (Hostess)
Stamp Set: So Happy For You (Sale-A-Bration)
Ink: Melon Mambo
Tools: Doily Triple Layer Punch, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch, Scallop Trim Border Punch

Have a great weekend,

Tropical Flower Birthday Wishes - Double Challenge Card

Hello again,

I love weekends. Mainly because I have a couple of days off from work, but also because I have more time to create cards. I have entered two challenges with this latest post. I went to Clean and Simple Stamping to get a starting point for my card. I then went to Colour Q to get the colour scheme I would be using. The beautiful weather we had yesterday inspired me to create a tropical flower card. I also was excited to use my Daffodil Pompom Trim. It adds so much fun to a card.

Here's the sketch and the colour combination: 



 

Here's my card:

And the details are:

CS: Very Vanilla, Tempting Turquoise, Tangerine Tango

Stamp Sets: Tropical Party, So Happy for You

Ink: Tempting Turquoise, Daffodil Delight, Tangerine Tango, Peach Parfait

Embellishments: Daffodil Delight Pompom Trim

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Floral Delight card

Hi there,

I've been itching to create another card using the guidelines of a card challenge. I guess I'm catching the card challenge bug. For this card I went to http://inkspirations-challenges.blogspot.com/ to participate in their latest sketch challenge. At first I had one DSP in mind, but it just didn't feel right. After a while, I got out my Greenhouse Gala DSP and it all came together. I also was happy to use my Build a Blossom stamp set with the coordinating Blossom Petals punch. I just love this set!

Here's the sketch:

And here's my creation:

Here are the details:

CS: Chocolate Chip, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White

DSP: Greenhouse Gala

Stamp set: Build a Blossom, So Happy for You (Sale-A-Bration)

Ink: Chocolate Chip, Crushed Curry

Embellishments: Antique Brad

Tools: Blossom Petals punch

Thanks for stopping by,
