Magical Monday Vibes

Happy Magical Monday! Today’s card design was inspired by playing along with a few challenges.

Colour palette was inspired by the Global Design Project #GDP525 - a gorgeous colour combo! 

I Chose to pull out the retired Kindest Gnomes stamps & dies in my stash thanks to the Inspired By challenge #IB365 

Try a Sketch on Tuesday had a fun layout to play with #TSOT684. Their sister site has a Double Trouble challenge of 3 colours and I am using Highland Heather, Cloud Cover and Lost Lagoon, 2 layers and 1 image which is my Gnomes. Twisted Sister challenge of adding in some silver twine. 

Getting inky with the retired Kindest Gnomes, Encircled In Nature dies, Evergreen Embossing folder, Greetings for All ephemera sentiments, Wink of Stella, Silver twine and Rhinestones.

Came together as a cute little “Best Wishes” card for a special someone’s birthday or other celebration.

Happy Stampin’

Wednesday WOW

Welcome to another Wednesday WOW card edition!

Playing along with Try A Sketch on Tuesday sketch challenge #TSOT680 and it’s sister challenge Double Trouble Thing 2 use 3-2-1 from stash so I have 3 colours of paper, 2 dies and 1 silver bakers twine ribbon! 

I’m playing with the Delicate Pines stamp set and retired Peaceful Boughs dies, Elegant Pine snowflake DSP and some rhinestone and silver bakers twine! 

Just love how it came together - so pretty I didn’t even remember it needed a sentiment on the front. Although I think that maybe the Pine Snowflake just says it all ❄️ 

Edited to add I was nominated for Top 3 for this entry 💕💕💕

Throwback Thursday Summer By the Sea

Welcome to another edition of Throwback Thursday - a chance for me to pull out some old favourites from my stash.

I’m playing along with Try a Sketch on a Tuesday #TSOT679 to use Oodles of Doodles use doodles anywhere on your stamp set which helped me choose to pull out my By the Seaside stamp set. 

Also playing along with their sister challenge Double Trouble to use not only the s doodles but to add layers and a sentiment.

Over at TGIF challenges I was inspired by the clouds in #tgif543 mood board. Well whom kidding also inspired me to crave a donut but I don’t have a donut stamp set 🤣

The As You See It colour and mood board challenge #AYSI357 inspired me to incorporate a sunset using the colours in the prompt.

I love playing with old and new so incorporated my Prairie Grass stamp set into the design.

Love the here for you through any storm vibes of the imagery and cloudy day by the sea vibes in this design so I chose the ‘my shoulder is yours’ sentiment. Think this would also be a great anniversary card too with less of the cloudy storm brewing. 

Happy Stampin’
