Lavender & Bluebells Throwdown

 

This week at the Color Throwdown Challenge, the colors are green, blue, lavender, and silver or gold! Perfect for a bouquet made with The Greetery’s new “BotaniCuts” dies…”Lavender” and “Bluebells!”



I used the new “Garden Gear: Glove” die and coordinating stencils, and a mini “Market Baskets” die cut from silver cardstock. I made a background with the “Square Dance” stencils, then stamped tiny hearts and a sentiment from Papertrey Ink’s “Love Lives Here” stamp set. 

Thank you for stopping by!

Blue Floral Birthday Throwdown

I LOVE the colors at the Color Throwdown Challenge this week! They are lime green, aqua, and navy!

I made a funky, preppy floral bouquet with stamps, dies, and stencils from The Greetery!

I used the big, bold blooms from “Lovely Blossoms,” small floral clusters from “Print Shop: Fresh Floral,” and the sentiment combo of “Sentiments Squared” and “Opposites Attract.” The background was made using the “Tartan Builder Diagonal” stencils (of course)! Most of my inks were Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks…particularly in Twisted Citron, Salvaged Patina, and Chipped Sapphire…with a few extra shades of ink thrown in!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Easter!

 This week at the Color Throwdown Challenge, the colors are perfectly pastel for an Easter card…pink, sage green, lavender, and blue.

I chose to make an Easter bouquet with lots of “BotaniCuts” flower dies from The Greetery!


I used “BotaniCuts” dies including “Lily,” “Tulips,” and “Wildflower Mix,” as well as a little frame from the “Nordic Slimline” die set, and a sentiment from “Blessed Blooms.”

Happy Easter! Thank you for hopping by! 🐰

Teacher Sketch

A card for this week’s challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!

I made a card for a favorite teacher…

Used Papertrey Ink’s “Treasured Teacher” and “Apple Prints” stamp sets along with the “Cover Plate: Apples” die. The fun patterned papers are from an oldie but goody set from Echo Park called “This & That.”

Thanks so much for stopping by! ❤️

Patterned Bunnies!

Playing along with the Fusion Card Challenge’s “Cloth Bunnies” this week!

I used my favorite bunnies of all time from The Greetery’s “Bunny Hop” stamp and stencil set!


I stamped some old gingham and ticking stripe background stamps, using the stencil as a mask, to decorate my bunnies. The base is stamped with Impression Obsession’s “Cover A Card: Screen.”


The sentiment is a combination of The Greetery’s “All Kinds of Happy” die and a banner sentiment from “Springtime.”

Thanks for hopping by! 💙🐰💙

Macrame & Bunnies Throwdown

 Playing along with a fun and unique set of Color Throwdown this week…tan, yellow, gray, and black!

I decided to add a lot of white in the background for an airy spring card!

I used The Greetery’s “Bunny Hop” stamps, stencils, and die set and a sentiment from “All Kinds of Happy” (stamp set, die, and shadow die, too).


The background was made with elements from The Greetery’s “Macrame” set of die products. So much fun to mix and match!

Thanks so much for hopping by! 🐰❤️
