BLOSSOM BITS ~ CONGRATULATIONS

Hi there!

This card is a real mixed bag-dry embossing, stenciling, die cutting, and stamping. The congratulations stamp is one of five in this set from Quietfire Design.

The nine squares were stenciled, then attached to the dry embossed panel with foam tape. The panel was adhered to the card base and the stamped piece was attached with foam tape.

After cutting out the flowers and foliage, it was cut into sections and glued over the squares.

I'm using this card for these challenges:

HONOUR CHRISTMAS

Hi Everyone!

I have a quick card to share today. Circles and strips, a little bling and a beautiful sentiment from Quietfire Design, complete this simple card.

The design was inspired by the challenge at CAS(E) this Sketch! and the circle/strip technique is from Technique Junkies.

CASE THIS SKETCH AND COLOUR Q CHALLENGE CARD

Hi! I took on two challenges today- I am getting so bold! 

This super simple card is basic stamping and matting onto the card base.

That's it.

Couldn't be easier.

The card uses a sentiment stamp from Quietfire Design and floral stamps from Stampin' Up!

 

I'm playing at Cas(e) This Sketch .....

 

...and Colour Q.

 

Hope you are enjoying this lovely extended summer we are having here in BC.

NEW STAMP SET AND CHALLENGE CTS #36

Look at how pretty this stamp set is! You can see the entire set HERE. 

I thought I would try heat embossing on grosgrain ribbon and I love how it worked out. The Queen's Gold embossing powder is so bright! Love it.

The thank you stamped oval works perfectly with the Spellbinders Oval die set. The pretty rose stamp was cut out after colouring. Fussy cutting isn't so bad if you're only cutting out one, and if you cut a little outside the line.

 

I think it works for the CTS #36 challenge. Want to play? Go HERE. 

Even if you don't play, you'll want to see all the inspiring entries there.

 

ONE MORE THING:

I have a post today at Quietfire Creations.

I hope you'll like it, so go check it out okay?

It's right HERE. 

 

 

I HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!

Thank so much for stopping by.

 

 

 

 

 

COLOUR Q & CTS CHALLENGE

Colour Q has chosen a pretty palette for us to use.

Case This Sketch brings us this cute arrangement.

 

Here's my take on the two together.

It's hard to see the three flat backed pearls on the small panel,

but they are there.  :)

 

Click the links, HERE and HERE to see loads of other entries for these challenges.

Give one or both a try and have fun!

 

Thanks for looking!

 

Q'S & C'S

Are you wondering what Q's & C's means?

Q is for Quietfire Design- sentiment stamp, and Colour Q- colour challenge.

C is for CAS(E) This Sketch and again for Colour Q, if you like.

FUN! Love, love, love clean and simple sketches.

Colour Q Is always fun and Quietfire Design always has a stamp that will work.

 

Thanks for looking!

 

Edited to add:

Imagine my embarrassment to find that the CAS(E) this Sketch I used here was LAST weeks challenge!  Now I'm just laughing at myself.  :)

I still like the card.
