Stampin Up Artistically Inked Sympathy Cards

Hello and happy Monday. Today I'm sharing a couple cards made with new-to-me stamps. I'm trying to use things I have on hand - especially never-been-used items I purchased and haven't gotten around to use! Am I the only one?

This first card features Stampin' Up's Artistically Inked set for the flowers and Stampin' Up's Petite Pairs for the sentiment.

This coral creation also features the Artistically Inked set and the sentiment is from a past Paper Pumpkin.

I feel I'm particularly bad at creating sympathy cards, but I was on a mission and I think I did ok.

Thanks for taking a look and have a wonderful week!

Wild Animals Birthday Cards

Hello and happy fall!! I would have to say my favorite season is fall. There is just a feel to the air that draws me in. Anyway, today I'm sharing a set of cards:

All the cards feature Stampin' Up's Biggest Wish for the sentiments. I really like this set.

My critters are from a stamp set that came in the Creative Stamping Magazine Issue 78 from Paperwishes.

These were fun for me since I don't usually use these types of animals on cards. More realistic.

I don't remember where the papers are from, but I think they are sort of retro looking. Super simple layouts but I think they came out ok.

Thank you for taking a look and have a wonderful weekend!

My cards meet the following challenges: Addicted to Stamps: Birthday, Digi Choosday: Anything Goes, Passion for Markers: Use a Rubber or Clear Stamp (I used both), Through the Craft Room Door: Anything Goes, and Jan's Digi Stamps: Anything Goes.

Let's Celebrate You Horse Card

Hello and happy Monday!! Popping in to share a creation using a digi stamp I won a while back.

This card features Pony Flower by Hetty Clare. I love blue daisies! I created my plaid background using the Plaid Layering Stencil from Taylored Expressions, as well as the All About You sentiment and diecut from My Favorite Things.

That's it for today! Thanks for taking a look and have a wonderful week!

Wish Fish Ocean Handmade Card

Hello and wow it's already August! So much going on in life, but I'm trying to fit in a little coloring and card making whenever possible.

I made the following for the latest Corrosive Challenge: Anything Goes

The Emma the Mermaid and Friends digi set is full of underwater goodness and I completely fell for this fish image. The background is also part of the digi set, but I only colored the main image so it would pop.

There still a bit over a week to enter this month's anything goes challenge.

Thank you for stopping by!

This meets the following challenges: Digi Choosday: Anything Goes, Through the Craft Room Door: Anything Goes, AAA Birthday: Anything Birthday Goes, and The Paper Players: Keep it Simple Nautical.

Groovy Rory Retro Flower Child

Hello and welcome July!

Today I'm sharing a card I made for last month's Corrosive Challenge.

My image is Rory Love and Peace Hippie by Colour of Love. I thought she was just adorable. I created my background is Taylored Expressions Dahlia Stencil with Ranger Inks. The sentiment is diecut using Sizzix. I cut each letter 3 times to make them thick.

Thanks for taking a look at one of my latest creations.

My card meets the following challenges: A Gem of a Challenge: Anything Goes, Happy Little Stampers: Anything Goes with Dies, and Cut it Up: Summer Lovin' with Die cut.
