A Glowing, Watercolored Partial Die Cut

Hey all!  I wanted to create a fun card with a few challenges.  I started with a piece of water color paper and using Stampin Up watercolor crayons I created a circle with various shades of yellow and orange.  I then used a Spellbinders circle die and did a partial die cut over the watercoloring.  Using the Tim Holtz stapler to hold the cut portion back. Stamped the greeting from Papertrey Ink in Palette Noir ink. Then I made a card base with Summer Sunrise card stock from PTI and used Glossy Effects the hold my glitter in the center of the sun. This will be entered in the challenges below.  Thanks for stopping by,

PTI June Blog Hop #2

Hey all, This is the second card I created for the June blog hop over at Papertrey Ink.  I started with Beautiful Blooms II dies and cut out cardstock flowers using the color card I have shown below.  I then pieced the fowers together to create the pie cart shown on the sketch card.  Our challenge was to use the color and sketch cards they supplied to create our project.

I stamped the Turning a New Leaf set in Limeade Ice ink on a white PTI card, added the pie chart flower and accented it with a Summer Sunrise button.  I then die cut a "Hello" from white cardstock and stamped it with Aqua Mist ink with the Wonderful Words/Hello set. Finally I added the hello in Orange Zest ink from that same set.  Thanks for dropping by to check it out,

PTI June Blog Hop

Hello!  Papertrey Ink's June Blog Hop is on us so I decided to get a little inky tonight!  They shared sketch and color cards with us and asked us to create projects using them as our inspiration.  My first card uses the colors listed on the color card and the stamp sets Sketched Shapes and Simple Sentiments.  I used a little black bakers twine for a accent.  The cards that I used are shown below my project.  Thanks for stopping by, Sentimentally Sue!

Shadow Stamped Butterflies & Winged Things

Hello!  So for today's card I thought I would try a couple challenges out there.  Simon Says Stamp Monday Blog Chalenge was to stamp winged things and the challenge over at Less is More was a single layer shadow stamped card.  I started with PTI white cardstock and a set called Beautiful Butterflies.  Stamped the greeting in Palette Noir ink.  Then used mint, sky and amethyst inks all from Stampin Up to stamp the butterflies each 3 times without reinking. I then added a few silver Colorbox ink butterflies. I spritzed on a little mint and amethyst ink and then added a few silver sequins. We have a bunch of weddings this summer so I thought I better get some cards made up.  Thanks for stopping by, Sentimentally Sue.

Woodgrain Floral

Hello, Just wanted to add one more idea to the Make-It-Monday layering dye and pigment ink.  I started with white cardstock, Woodgrain stamp and white pigment ink.  I let it dry and then stamped the flowers with dye ink.  I used the Happiness in Bloom set from Papertrey Ink. I will also enter this in The Card Concept "Clean & Graphic" floral challenge. Thanks for stopping by,

Masculine Shadow Stripe

Hello and Happy Friday to you!  Well we made it through ANOTHER blizzard last night.  I think we might make it to spring but I wish it would hurry up this cold and snow is getting to me.  I was thinking how mush I love my hubby this AM and thought it would be nice just to seek a card in his sock drawer to remind him.

This card uses the World's Greatest set from PTI, Cardstock from PTI and Stampin Up and ink from Stampin Up.  The technique is to stamp white pigment ink on white cardstock then stamp dye based ink over the top to create a shadow effect. I stamped the stripes from the Super Stripes set (PTI).  I wanted to enter this in the PTI Make-It-Monday challenge and the "Less is More" Masculine challenge. 

Thanks for stopping by!!
