Inky Paw's Challenge 170 - Color Challenge

 


Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

here is my take on the challenge

For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

Farming Fun Stamp Set

Time for Coffee Stamp Set

Argyle Stencil Set

Frames and Flags Die Set

So happy to be back with the Inky Paw’s Challenge after a

 VERY LONG drive from Texas to Oregon.

On this very long drive the only thing that kept my going was coffee.

A truckload of coffee would have been nice!

To create this card, I started with a base of blue cardstock.

Using the Argyle Stencil Set and Versamark ink I stamped on my pattern.

I used clear embossing powder to heat set my lines and get them to stand out.

Next, I die cut the argyle lines cardstock out using the scalloped edge die

 from the Frames and Flags Die Set to make my card front.



Because I was pressed for time, a simple strip of white card stock across

the front will be where I place my truck and sentiment.

I used the rest of the challenge colors on the truck and coffee cup.

I love the way the coffee cup from Time for Coffee fits in the bed of the truck.

Imagine this truck rolling down the street!

And that completes my take on this challenge

Now it is your turn!

Food and/or Drink - Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

 

 

THIS WEEK’S THEME AT THE

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

FOOD and/or DRINK

Featuring stamps and dies by

ART IMPRESSIONS

But… If you have some of their product in your stash

Here is my take on this challenge.



My Crafty Item of choice for this challenge is:

Sweet Truffles by Simon Says Stamp

So excited to share all the fun elements on this card with you.

For this challenge I do not have anything by Art Impressions.

I decided to use the Sweet Truffle Stamp Set by Simon Says Stamp

I created a standard size card base from Cotton Candy Card Stock

To add some texture, I stamped on the honeycomb stamp

from the Bee yourself stamp set using Kitsch Flamingo Distress ink.

Next, I stamped and colored my truffles.

I also stamped and colored my bees.

To assemble my card, I die cut out white card stock using Nested Dome Arches to create a card front.

I added my truffle first, popped up with foam tape.

Then stamped on my sentiments around the truffles.

Next came the bees, and a snippet from a sentiment strip.

For a final touch I added Glossy Accents to the wings of the bees and few matching sequins.

This completes my take on FOOD and/or DRINK

I almost forgot the good news!

Inky Paw's Challenge 169 - Think Spring!

 



Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

Check out this fun card!


For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

Floral Roundabout

Heartfelt Essentials

Circle Frames Die

A7 Frame and Banners Die (banner)

So excited to share this super quick shaped card with you.

I stared by stamping the flower image onto some white cardstock.

I chose bright bold colors for the spring flowers on this stamp.

Once everything was colored, I die cut out my circle using the circle frames die.

I also die cut out the scalloped circle from the same die set out of green

 card stock to create a peek of scalloped edge.



 I used a circle nesting die from my stash to create a card base and glued on all my layers.

To finish my card, I used a banner from the A7 Frame and Banners Die.

The sentiment come from the Heartfelt Essentials Stamp set.

This is added to the front of my shaped card with foam tape.

And that completes my take on this challenge.

Now it is your turn!

Use your Favorite Things - Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

 

THIS WEEK’S THEME AT THE

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

USE YOUR FAVORITE THING

Featuring stamps and dies by

MY FAVORITE THINGS

You do not have to use the featured company to join in.

But… If you have some of their product in your stash

We would LOVE to see them used.

Here is my take on this challenge.


My Crafty Item of choice for this challenge is:

Begging to See You Soon by My Favorite Things

So excited to share all the fun elements on this card with you.

I just love animal stamps!

       All the cute critters are a go-to for me.

I wanted this to be a clean and simple card.

To start this card, I started with a rectangle of white card stock.

I stamped on the sentiment slightly off set.


The idea is to balance out the sentiment with the heart and cats that also what to add.

I die cut a heart from the Woodgrain Whimsy Paper pad and added that to the front of the card.

Next, I stamped and colored my cats of choice from the stamp set.

After fussy cutting out the cats, I added those to the front of the card popped up with foam tape.

To finish out this card, I add some white sequins from Little Things by Lucy’s Cards.

I add this to a card base created

 using Smoke Card stock. 

This completes my take on USE YOUR FAVORITE THING
