Whimsical Wings & Things Wednesday

Welcome to another edition of Whimsical Wings & Things Wednesday. 

I’m getting inky with the Gilded Gallery card kit, Gold embossing powder and metallic gems. 

Final design - tried a Fault line version with the printed front panel for this alternative. Gold embossed sentiment did not photograph well but it’s so pretty in real life.

Whimsical Wings & Things Wednesday

Welcome to another edition of Whimsical Wings & Things Wednesday.

My card design was inspired by playing along to the Stamp2Cr8 Community September Inky Fingers Challenge. At our monthly team meeting our team leader Stamp with Anne gives everyone an inky finger package with DSP, a die cut shape and embellishments to take home and choose a stamp set to getting inky with and than share our design with the group to see how everyone can start with same base products but all come up with vastly different creations. It’s a fun way to play and learn from each other. 

I’m getting inky with the Cutest Crew bundle, the Rustic Check and Seasonal Cheer embossing folder, Spotlight on Nature dies, the Painted Patch DSP, gems & Calypso Coral ribbon. 

Adorable final design for a Just a Little Hello card.

Welcome to another edition of Whimsical Wings & Things Wednesday - today’s offering is all about the Gilded Wings!

Today’s card design was inspired by playing along to a few fun challenges: 

Another round of AAA Coloirful colour themed challenges as I had left overs from yesterday’s technique session to use.

I coloured on the gilded wings with my blends to add some blue hues to the butterfly as well. The large hexagon sentiment from the Sincerely Noted Mix & Match ephemera pairs perfectly.
