Ink . Stamp . Share Monthly Blog Hop Sketch Challenge

Welcome! Didn't you love Donna's project? There is so much talent on this blog hop, make sure to hop all the way around. This month's blog hop was a sketch challenge.

For this challenge I used our Boho Indigo Medley to create my card. I layered up the designer series paper from the kit and added it to a Misty Moonlight card base. 

For the gems, I used the flowers that come in the medley but I coloured them with my Misty Moonlight Blends pen. I love this medley so much, it's so versatile even if you just have the refill kit. The medley is reduced from £65 to £39 so be sure to order yours so you don't miss out!

I hope you like it. Why don't you give it a go and share your makes with me?!

Next up on the hop is Susan, I know that you will love her project.  Click on the next button below or any of the links under the roll call.

Quick cards to use DSP

Hi and welcome back to my blog. 

I hope you all had a nice Easter break, however you spent it.

This week's Ink.Stamp.Share Blog Hop's theme is to share projects that we've been working on recently. 

I have been making the most of my retired DSP from this year's Sale-A-Bration. So, I decided to make some mini slimline cards. They measure 6 1/4" x 3 1/4". 

I kept the cards simple and used the sentiments from Pretty Perennials and Peaceful Moments. Then I added little embellishments using the small bloom punch and used my blends to colour some pearl basic jewels. And of course, I had to add some wink of stella to the flowers!

Thank you for reading my blog. Follow the next link below to see inspiration from Donna Coffman.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone! And what a beautiful day it is before the rain and snow arrives tomorrow.

As it's Easter, I just had to share these cards with you, using the Springtime Joy stamp set. 

I stamped the images from the Springtime Joy set in memento black on a die cut layer from the hippo & friends dies, and coloured them in using my Stampin' Up! Blends pens in highland heather and balmy blue for the flowers. I added just a hint of gray granite  on the bunny and lamb. I used pear pizzazz with the largest water stamp from the Waterfront stamp set to act as grass underneath.

I stepped up both cards by adding an embossed layer underneath my die cut layers to add a little bit of texture. I then finished both cards off with some pastel pearls.

I hope you like them.
