I've got 2 cards to share with you today and both took some inspiration from Joyce's first card in this post. This card is for the current Colour Throwdown challenge. I used an NBUS Winnie & Walter flower die with some old My Mind's Eye papers. Joyce's card reminded me of these Papertrey Ink panel dies so I dug them out and dusted them off. Thanks, Joyce!
Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (Textured White) Bazzill, (More Mustard, Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Patterned Paper: (Yellow polka dots from Moments 6x6, Blue, grey stripes from Lost & Found 3) My Mind's Eye
Stamps: (Sentiment from Birthday Greetings) Altenew
Inks: (VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko
Dies: (Flower & leaves from In Bloom: Maggie's Roses) Winnie & Walter, (Panels) Papertrey Ink
Glitter: (Clear Wink of Stella) Zig
Gems: Recollections
Next is a card for Freshly Made Sketches. Just like Joyce I used Copics to create an ombre panel for my design. I love the look and it matches the cake perfectly. The cake and sentiment are from Concord & 9th and I went a bit crazy with the pink gems.
Thanks for being my muse this weekend, Joyce! :)

Pretty cards! I love the different shades of pink on the cake. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week!
Swooning over those fab angles and gorgeous flower right now!
Love the panels on the first card allowing the yellow rose to really pop. And I also love the pink and greys of the second!
Beautiful use of colors!
Terrific cards Jen, love the polka dot rose!
These are fabulous! That ombre cake and panel are simply marvelous. So glad to see you this week at FMS!
Jen, these are so much fun! I LOVE the polka dot rose set against those tilted panels, and your tiered ombre cake card screams fun!! This is one occasion where I would strongly advocate going crazy with the gems! Totally love them!! 😉
I love my "tipped tops" dies and the way you've layered them is wonderful, Jen. I'm always playing with my practice pieces to find a better way to layer them. The flower is gorgeous on the black and white. I love the colors on your cake card.
Love your birthday cake with the ombre. Such a pretty and cool look!
Such a lovely polka dot bloom against those tilted panels, Jen ... and a completely scrumptious cake ... love that ombre strip along the edge! Hugs, Anita :)
So very honored, Jen. Thanks so much for letting me know that I inspired you. These cards are both so wonderful, and it touches my heart to think that I insired you. I'm glad you sent me a note about it, because I am so far behind on my visits, it might have been a very long time before I found this post on my own. You really made my day when I saw your message. Stay crafty, my friend.
