Hello

Hi Crafty Friends!

As you can see, I'm on a roll today with another card made for playing along in a challenge. This time it's for AAA Cards who are having a sketch challenge. Here is what I made ...


I combined stamps from 2 different sets for my corner stamping. The white die-cut sentiment enhances the CAS look.

Live in the Sunshine

Hi Crafty Friends!

Sharing a little card today I made for fun and to play along at a couple of challenges, namely Time Out and Just Us Girls.

Both of their challenge themes provided the inspiration for my card ...


I used 3 stencils (stencil week) to create my seascape scene (photo inspiration: water, clouds, pink).

For a seamless look, the sentiment was stamped across the layers on each layer in turn as I was adding them using my MISTI.


I am entering my card at:

Time Out Challenge #316 - photo inspiration


Just Us Girls #829 - stencil week


That's it from me for now. Wishing you a lovely day!

hugs
Monika 💕

Bright Birthday Wishes

Hi Crafty Friends!

As you're probably aware, STAMPlorations are celebrating their 13th birthday this week. To help them celebrate I shall be posting extra inspiration each day. That's apart from the ones I made as part of their design team.

Today's bonus project uses one of the Big Birthday Cakes - Colorables by STAMPlorations. It is rather bright card... sunglasses at the ready....

Sometimes I just love the funkiness of 'clashing' colours. The cerise from the large birthday cake contrasts very well with the cire of the smaller outline stamped cake and the menthe of the stamped 'happy'.

Glitter and sequins finished the card off.

It's over to you now, head to the STAMPlorations Blog for birthday give-aways and perks and to comment and help them celebrate.

Back with more inspiration tomorrow.

Hugs
Monika 💕
