This card is a pretty close CASE of this card. It features the Stampin' Up Petite Petals stamp set and matching punch. The embossing was done with a Sizzix folder and a Cuttlebug. I used some SU, Distress Ink and ColorBox inks. The sentiment is from Hero Arets and the bling is Triveni.
Does this look like a watermelon? Because it's supposed to! Watermelon always makes me think of summer and my new SU Work of Art set was perfect to make a slice. How convenient for me lol. I used Distress Inks Spun Sugar and Peeled Paint. For the seeds, I used my handy dandy hole punch and some black scrap paper. The fabulous sentiment is part of the same set. The inked edges are done in Peeled Paint. This is actually a get well card for a friend's mom so I used one of my rarely used get well stamps on the inside.
Today I have Clean & Simple sketch 256 for you. I started with a small Fiskars hexagon punch to make my mask. Using Distress Ink Spun Sugar and Tea Dye with a dauber, I filled in the three rows. I wanted a bit more flare and found my Fiskars Dot flourishes. The ink is Brilliance Galaxy Gold and takes quite awhile to dry. My Inkadinkado Thank You Words set fit my idea perfectly. I places the sentiments on the card where I wanted them and then places the block over the top to mount them. They're stamped in Fresh Ink Chocolate. Since I'm used to layers on my cards, I still needed a bit more texture and added some Recollections Pearls. The ribbon on top is from my stash.
Enjoy your day!
This is my take on the August ODBD challenge. This month the challenge is to use brown, green and pink. I used Fresh Ink Chocolate, Memento Cottage Ivy and Distress Ink Spun Sugar inks. The brown and pink card stock is from my stash. The white is more of an ivory and is Darice pearl white. The Recollections bling is brown but picks up the colors of the card when you movie it. For the circles, I used SU Circle Circus and the sentiment is DeNami. I really like these colors together.
Enjoy your weekend!
