Color Me Sweet Card

Hey everyone I am back on the sweet stamp shop blog with a fun and new color challenge. I will be bringing a new color challenge to the table about every two weeks ish :) all you have to do is have fun making projects using the color challenge and then post to Sweet Stamp Shop's flickr! You can find all the details HERE.

This weeks color challenge Coral, Dark Blue, and Gold:

 

First I stamped and embossed with princess gold embossing powder "Be Bold Be Brave" using the Monogram Alpha. For the flower I used the flower from Elegant Flowers and stamped and embossed it and then used my color shines to watercolor it. I added some seam binding and rafia behind it and finished off with some enamel dots. When I took pictures of the card it felt unfinished still so I used my versamark pen to add the gold embossed border around it. Viola.

You can find both of these sets in the shop. 

Elegant Flowers

Monogram Alpha

All You Need Is Love

Hello Everyone! Hope Everyone's morning has been wonderful!

I had some extra time this weekend and decided to play along with a couple challenges. I wanted to go a little out of my comfort zone so I played along with Dynamic Duos. The colors this week are pool party and Pink Pirouette...or more simply put...Pink and Mint. I am not typically a pink girl at all. I hardly ever craft with it, but I was loving the inspiration that the girls had put up. So, I gave it a go. I am also pairing it with Curtain Calls "Love Letter".

Go HERE to play along too

Go HERE to play along too.

So there it is folks. I LOVED how this card turned out. I used some of my stash that hadn't been touched for awhile including some old October Afternoon rub ons and some of my Favorites. :) I used Sweet Stamp Shops Chalkboard Sign, some Twine from the Twinery, Heidi Swapp Color Shine, and for the Sentiment I used SRM's Love Sticker Sentiment.

Thanks for stopping in. :) Have you played along with any challenges this week? I would love to see what you have been working on. Just leave me a link in your comment for me to check it out :)

Happy Crafting

Challenge Time

My friend Nicole and I got to together the other morning to do another fun card challenge...And once again still LOVIN it! And this one, I am pretty excited about, not only did I love what I made but the sponsor for this challenge is SRM and who ever wins gets a prize package from SRM!!!!! EEKK pressure is on, plus, I could always use some SRM  :)

So let's get to the card...

This is what we drew our inspiration from: The Play Date Cafe:

I was instantly in love with the color scheme. The bold tangerine with the apricot and mint, so clean and crisp with the vintage appeal. TOTALLY up my alley.

The first card I was trying to make was pretty much a fail, but, once I re-schemed, it instantly came together.

Here is what I came up with:

 I used the Heidi Swapp color shine in Apricot for the background on the white. SUCH a perfect pop.

Now a bit closer to see the fun details :)

 I embossed a SWEET stamp for the sentiment

Then added layers of ribbons, buttons and flowers! TA-DAA a beautiful masterpiece was created (at least in my opinion lol)

Hope you enjoyed the latest challenge.

XOXO
