The Pinterest Inspired Challenge is new in town and judging from the number of gorgeous entries it's going to be a popular one. I love the colours and the fun flowers in this inspiration picture and it immediately made me think of the flowers and leaves from a My Cute Stamps set. I stamped them in black and then I took shapes from Simon Says Stamps' Scribble Flowers to "colour in" the images. The layout is based on the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches but I flipped it upside down.
Cardstock: (White) Papertrey Ink, (Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Flowers & leaves from Celebrate Today) My Cute Stamps, (Circles from Scribble Flowers) Simon Says Stamp, (Sentiment from Oh Happy Day) Avery Elle

Next up is an entry for Curtain Call. I was inspired by the colours, the flowers and the stripes in the background. I paired some of my favourite Paper Smooches dies with some striped paper from Lawn Fawn and an Altenew sentiment. Unfortunately this is one of those cards that I love in real life but I feel like the picture is lacking. I always have a hard time photographing black cardstock so maybe that's it. It just doesn't seem to have translated well.Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Papertrey Ink, (Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Basic Black) Stampin' Up, (Gold)
Patterned Paper: (Let's Polka 6x6) Lawn Fawn
Stamp: (Sentiment from Many Thanks) Altenew
Inks: (VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko
Dies: (Crystal Clear 3, Flowers) Paper Smooches, (Stitched rectangle) Mama Elephant

My final card uses this week's palette from ColourQ. I love this colour combination - so bright and cheerful and perfect for some happy birthday balloons although apparently I've been using a lot of balloons lately because Luis' reaction to the card was, "Really? Balloons again?" Hmmm… is that a challenge? Clearly it's time I get more creative with my birthday cards! Time to dust off some NBUS and get to work! That's it for me today. Hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll see you back here tomorrow with CASology!Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Papertrey Ink, (Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, Basic Grey) Stampin' Up
Stamp: (Sentiment from Cake & Candles) Avery Elle
Inks: (VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko
Dies: (Balloons) Simon Says Stamp, (Bows) Avery Elle
