January Inspiration Challenge

Hi everyone!


Today I created a card for the Altenew Inspiration Challenge. I love the colors Agnieszka has chosen.

Here is the link for the blog post with more information:

Altenew Inspiration Challenge








I started by cutting stripes with a matching color and glued them to a black background. I wanted to created that same Maritime feel. At the bottom I let a black space so there is a little bit more interest.

Then I die cut the flowers from the Cape Marguerite Die Set in blue and added shadings with inks and pencils.


For the leaves I didn’t have a matching cardstock, so I colored them with Alcohol markers. I love to use all these different mediums. This brings me so much joy.





Finally, I added the sentiment from the Streamlined Stamp and Die set. The upper part is stamped und the word lovely I die cut. How cool is that to add this dimension?!


Thanks for stopping by.

  Hi there!   Thanks for stopping by. You must be here from   Caly Person . Otherwise you can go back to the Altenew Blog  or grab another coffee and just have fun hopping around.😉 Today I’m going to show you some cards I created with all the great products which came out with the  Marvelous Monthly July Series . I love all of them.   My first card I created using the Build-A- Garden Tulips and Friends Stamp & Stencil Set. This is actually one of my favorites because I love to color flowers with stencils. This is so easy and you just receive amazing results. And I don’t know about you, but I have a lot of different inks and so I can use them all. Anyway, here is my card. I stamp the image with black ink and embossed it clear. Then I colored the tulips by using the stencil, the stamp and finally I added also I little bit of watercolor.  I created a background with watercolor too. Then finally I added some splatter and a sentiment from the same stamp set.

Hello everyone!   Thank you so much for visiting my blog. You must be here from  LauraJane s  Blog. U nbelievable how creative she always is!   I created some cards I would like to share with you.   My first card I made with the new Daisies stencil that coordinates with embossing folder. I first colored the embossing folder with a brayer and run it through my die cut machine. Then colored the flowers with the stencils in blue and purple. I love this color combination. And with the stencil it is so easy to get great results.  After coloring I put the paper back in the embossing folder and run it through again, so I got back some of the dimension I may have lost with the coloring. I decided to take a small sentiment from the Floral Halo Stamp Set and fussy cut it out. I didn’t want to distract from this beautiful image. I find the daisies literally smile at you, so you certainly feel loved. My next card I created with the Blooming Flower Bed Stencil. With this you can create your own pat

Hi there!   Thanks for stopping by! You must be here from  Tenia Nelson . Today I’m going to share some cards featuring the new embossing folder from the Sommer Love Collection.   My first card I created with the Geo Triangles Embossing Folder. And the best thing about this embossing folder is, that there are also coloring stencils available. I started to emboss some white cardstock and then colored it with the stencil with different shades of green. I added a geometric piece who matches the pattern from the embossing folder and stamped my sentiment there. Then I used some flowers from the Wonderland Stamp set I had actually left over from another project. I thought these flowers fit perfect, because they’re tall and it doesn’t distract too much from the background.                                                            ---------- The next card I made with the Tiled Chevron Embossing folder. I love embossing folders with geometric forms. You can create so much texture, add some fl
