Hi there! Another weekend has come and gone so quickly. After spending most of the last five days fighting off a migraine I finally got back into the Craft Cave today and I've got 3 cards to share.
First up is for the CAS Colours & Sketches challenge. The splatter pattern on the sketch made me think of dangling vines so I pulled out these Doodle Bloom leaves from Altenew and coloured them with Copic greens. The flower is from an oldie but goodie Lawn Fawn set of large sentiments.
Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Papertrey Ink, (Rose Red, Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Leaves & flowers from Doodle Blooms) Altenew, (Sentiment from Grand Greetings) Lawn Fawn
Inks: (VersaMark, VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko
Embossing Powder: (Opaque Bright White Super Fine) Wow
Markers: (YG06, G07, G14) Copic
Other: (Ebony Black Nuvo Crystal Drops) Tonic
Gems: Recollections
This next card was inspired by the photo at The Card Concept. I focused on the coffee cup and the pinks from the roses. I used Lil' Inker Designs' coffee cup, patterned paper and sentiment with a Taylored Expression heart die. I'd say this card fits into the Clean and Simple category.
Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (Textured White) Bazzill, (White) Papertrey Ink, (Crumb Cake, Basic Black) Stampin' Up
Patterned Paper: (Love You 6x6) Lil' Inker Designs
Stamps: (Sentiment from Coffee Cozy Stamps) Lil' Inker Designs
Inks: (VersaMark) Tsukineko
Embossing Powder: (Opaque Bright White Super Fine) Wow
Dies: (Coffee cup) Lil' Inker Designs, (Large & small heart) Taylored Expressions
Gems: Recollections
Finally is my take on Anita's gorgeous card over at the Muse challenge. I took inspiration from her blended colours over an embossed background (although I used watercolors instead of Distress Inks) and the white on black sentiment.
Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (Watercolor) Ranger, (Black) Papertrey Ink, (Brushed Silver) Stampin' Up
Stamps: (Brilliant from Wait for It, Hope your birthday is... from Rad) CAS-ual Fridays, (Transparent Triangles Background) My Favourite Things
Inks: (VersaMark, VersaFine Onyx Black) Tsukineko
Embossing Powder: (Clear) Hero Arts
Die: (Scalloped rectangle) WPlus9
Paints: (Gansai Tombe) Kuretake
Gems: Recollections
