Monday vibes

Welcome back. I was away dealing with some frozen shoulder symptoms that prevented range of motion required in the craftroom but back now slow and steady  - today’s minimalist simple vibe card is inspired by playing along to a couple challenges.

Just Add Ink choose two - twine and holographic rhinestone gems. #JAI782

The Paper Players Tic Tac Toe #PP779 for a full card. 

I’m getting inky with the Fragrant Layers bundle, Natures WalK DSP, Triple Banner and Circle punch, gold metallic ink and embossing powder, twine and some holographic gems and some shiny sparkle in the flowers with Wink of Stella . 

I love this die set - makes such a quick and easy Hello card - the paper with the pop of gold makes it look so elegant.

Whimsical Wings & Things

Welcome to another edition of Whimsical Wings & Things Wednesday because the world needs more whimsy! 

Today’s card design is inspired by playing along with a couple challenges. The Color Dare palette is perfect for the Days Like These Memories & More colours. The Just Add Ink challenge of Wings is perfect as well. My design layout inspired by a Stampin’ Pretty sketch. 

I am getting inky with the Days Like These Memories and More card pack, Fabulous Sayings and Beautiful Butterflies stamp sets, Everyday Arches dies, Rhinestones coloured with Pool Party Blends.

Such a quick and easy design but so pretty. The paper in this card pack is just little works of art and does the heavy lifting for the design.  I used the masking tape trick to mask off the sentiment from Fabulous Sayings when inking so I could stack the Happy Birthday sentiment to fit in the arches.
