Bike & Bird


I had some unexpected crafty time today so I have a couple more cards to share.  First is for the photo inspiration challenge at Just Add Ink.  I pulled out another old Market Street Stamps set which had the perfect bicycle image for the challenge.  I used some MFT patterned paper and an MFT stitched arch die to frame it and popped that up on foam tape.


Supplies Used:
Cardstock:  (White) Papertrey Ink, (Smokey Slate, Basic Grey) Stampin' Up
Patterned Paper:  (Thick & Thin 6x6) My Favourite Things
Stamps:  (Bike & sentiment from Riding By) Market Street Stamps
Ink:  (VersaFine Onyx Black Tsukineko
Dies:  (Stitched arch) My Favourite Things
Markers:  (Pink Pirouette, Pretty in Pink) Stampin' Up
Other:  (Nuvo Liquid Mercury Crystal Drops) Tonic
Gems:  Recollections



Next is for the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge where Anything Goes.  They're showcasing WPlus9 products this week and I think this is one of the first sets I bought from them way back when.  It's a lovely set and has some more masculine images (which is good since just about every sympathy card I make has flowers).  I stamped the reeds and sentiment on this pretty piece of ombre paper and popped up the bird on foam tape.

Supplies Used:
Cardstock:  (Smokey Slate) Stampin' Up
Patterned Paper: 
Stamps:  (All from Guiding Light) WPlus9
Ink:  (Greys) Altenew
Other:  (Nuvo Oyster Grey Crystal Drops) Tonic

That arch die looks great behind the darling bicycle, Jen. I've seen that a lot lately so maybe it needs to come to my house. The calmness of the water scene is perfect for a sympathy card.
