Stamp Something Photo Inspiration!


Hello! Thanks for visiting today!  I am sharing this card I made for our Photo Inspiration Challenge at Stamp Something this week!  I took the "make a wish" aspect of the photo.  I took the lavender and magenta colors from the photo as well. Our sponsor this week is Paper Jewels. I colored this beautiful Sweet Pea image (one of my newest obsessions!) with Copics and some glitter paint.  The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps Ticket Sentiments set.  The flowers are Primas.  Thanks for checking it out and please visit the rest of the DT for more inspiration!

A Wedding Wish

Hello...back again to share a card I made for my friend, Diana's wedding!  She got married last month and she's coming home for a celebration party this week...so I get to give her the card this weekend!  I used the digi "Wedding Cake and Kisses," from Whimsy Stamps.  I colored them with Copics and Stickles.  The cardstock is embossed with CB D'vine Swirls.  I used the fuschia and orange ribbons (that I used on her place cards!) to match the flower. The sentiment is from a Stampin' Up set.  So...I should share the place cards too!

The picture on the left is the happy couple's place cards.  The picture on the right is the full box of 134 little chairs!  The ribbons signified meal choices and coordinated with the flowers at the wedding.  I can't wait to see all of the pictures!

So thanks for visiting again!  Please come back again!  I've been busy creating lots!  Have a great night!

Time for a sketch at CCC!

It's challenge time at CCC and we have a sketch for you this week! Our sponsor is Crafty Addicts and they are offering 3 pearl pens as a prize to the lucky winner!

I used a pixie image a friend stamped for me.  I colored her with Copics and 3D glitter.  The flowers are Prima and my stash.  I used a jumbo paper clip and a mini shaped clip to embellish. I finished the card with silver Stickles and a rhinestone flower topped with a green pearl brad. The sentiment is Whimsy Stamps.  Thanks for stopping by today!
