#tgifc309 Designer Take Over Challenge - Stampin' Up! Tasteful Touches

 Hello and Happy Friday!

   Ok, so I don't know about you, but this month flew by for me! It's definitely been a busy one. I love that I have been able to share so many fun projects with you this month too! Have you enjoyed all of the ombre' projects? It was a blast creating them all. This MIGHT be my last ombre' card for awhile...maybe...lol

 When I saw Tanya's challenge, I thought it would be fun to go ahead and try to do another ombre' card, but this time I wanted it to have a little more masculine feel than the other ones that I've shared. Tasteful Touches is perfect for that!

 I LOVE all the layering and the rich color combo on this card. It wasn't a very difficult either. I stamped the images by hand (no Stamparatus) so that I could get an organic feel, and imperfect placement. A lot of the impact is the die-cut layers and the simple layout.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I also want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me. When you place your order this month, please use hostess code FQ9G4D7B. Remember also, that I will send you a free tutorial bundle when your order reaches $50 or more!

#tgifc308 Inspiration Challenge - Stampin' Up! Fancy Phrases

 Hello and Happy Friday!!! I am so excited to be sharing this week's TGIF Challenge with you. This week we are featuring a beautiful inspiration challenge, and I LOVED bringing this challenge to life.

 I was instantly drawn to the watercolor background and softness in the florals, and knew that this would be another fantastic card to feature another ombre look! LOL.... I know, I might be  bit hooked.

 There was something that I loved about the Fancy Phrases stamp set the moment that I saw it. I had a few floral stamp sets to choose from for this card, but I am THRILLED that I trusted my heart and went this this one.

 There is a lot of texture, interest, and ombre in this card. On top of the Gorgeous Grape card base, I layered a piece of Highland Heather that I had embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder, then a piece of Purple Posy Designer Series Paper, and finally, the Watercolor Paper layer that I had created the ombre watercolor wash with Gorgeous Grape ink and the large Aqua Brush. To add the soft color around the roses, I used a Blender Pen with the Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz and Balmy Blue inks.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I also want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me. When you place your order this month, please use hostess code FQ9G4D7B. Remember also, that I will send you a free tutorial bundle when your order reaches $50 or more!

Fancy Friday Ombre' Challenge - I took it over the TOP! Stampin' Up! Daisy Lane

 Hello! I sure hope that you are having a great day! It's a beautiful 70 degree day in Las Vegas, even though we've had wind, rain, and even snow over the last few days! I'm glad it's sunny today though, it makes this a perfect day to post this card!

 So when we were challenged with this Anything Ombre' Challenge, I jumped WAY IN! Remember how I have been mentioning this over the last few weeks, about going a little crazy with ombre'? I've shared quite a few cards this month with ways to ombre' AND I have even more coming!!! LOL

 Here are a few of those:

 WE CREATE BLOG HOP - SNAILED IT

 #TGIF306 DAISY MASH UP

 CREATION STATION - OUTBACK, OUTWEST

 #TGIFC307 CUTE FRUIT 

 This card though has SO MANY different ways to ombre! Take a look...

 Ok, so did you find all the ombre'?

 1. The background. To create the background I sponged four different shades of green on to the Buffalo Check Background Stamp before stamping it on Basic White.

 2. The sentiment. To create the sentiment, I inked the stamp with my Stampin' Write Markers in Pool Party, Coastal Cabana, and Bermuda Bay. You can also achieve this look with Sponge Daubers, sponging the color on the stamp.

 3. The leaf die-cuts. Grab a pile of cardstock in the same color, from light to dark and layer away!

 4. The flowers. The flowers kind of double ombre' - they span across the card in an ombre' color scheme, but they also ombre from the center of the flower out. To create this look, I sponged the color on the flowers after embossing with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.

 5. The Rhinestone Embellishments. You can color your Rhinestones (and other embellishments) with Stampin' Blends to create different looks, including ombre' 

 Soooo..... do you have a favorite way to ombre'? Is there one of these techniques that you think you might want to try?

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I also want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me. When you place your order this month, please use hostess code FQ9G4D7B. Remember also, that I will send you a free tutorial bundle when your order reaches $50 or more!

#tgifc307 Sketch Challenge - Stampin' Up! Cute Fruit

 Hello and HAPPY FRIDAY! I sure do hope that you are having a GREAT DAY! I am so happy to be creating along with the fabulous TGIF Team today, bringing you some fun ideas with a great sketch challenge!

 I decided to grab one of my favorite sets featured in the Beginning Stamping Brochure - Cute Fruit. If you've been visiting my blog much this month, you might have noticed that I've really been on an ombre kick, and finding different ways to feature it. Same with this card - more ombre!

 The most prominent ombre is in the background I created by stamping the circle image in Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green. I also added a slightly different ombre look on the fruit with an easy sponging technique.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I also want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me. When you place your order this month, please use hostess code FQ9G4D7B. Remember also, that I will send you a free tutorial bundle when your order reaches $50 or more!

OSAT Blog Hop - Three Cheers for BIRTHDAYS!!! Stampin' Up! Ice Cream Corner

 Hello! So glad to have you joining me and the rest of the One Stamp At A Time Design Team for this week's Blog Hop all about Birthdays!!!! I always love when we get this theme because I ALWAYS need birthday cards and goodies! In fact, my sweet niece has a birthday coming up in just a few days, so these projects are all about her!

  I am honestly THRILLED with how these projects turned out, and can hardly wait to give them to her. She is absolutely the SWEETEST little girl, and has had kind of a rough year with covid and friends moving away. I know she gets a bit lonely, so I try to make sure I get to spend a little extra time with her.

 Seriously!?!?!? See why I don't want to wait? I LOVE them and want to see her big, adorable smile NOW!

 The first thing that I made for her is this oversized button to proudly proclaim she's starting her last year of single digits! I started with a rosette made from the yummy Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper, then had a blast adding fun little details like Pretty Petal Pink Ribbons, textured ice cream scoops and those sweet little Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles. I hope she loves it.

 Then I had to make her a coordinating card, right?

 The patterns in this great set of Designer Series Papers are so much fun! There are SO many colors to choose from when adding coordinating pieces, it's kind of hard to go wrong. Just pick from the list of colors on the back of the package and start layering and stamping! Everything seems to come out so cheerful!

 I am loving creating with these products, and know you will too. I will link all of my supplies below for you to make your shopping easy! 

 Please enjoy the rest of the hop today. I know there are some FABULOUS projects for you!

 

I want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me. When you place your order this month, please use hostess code FQ9G4D7B. Remember also, that I will send you a free tutorial bundle when your order reaches $50 or more!

Creation Station Blog Hop "Outback Out West" Stampin' Up! Flowering Cactus Medley

 Hey, hey, hey! Happy Sunday, and welcome to this month's Creation Station Blog Hop. We have such a fun theme for you this month! I think it's going to be full of inspiration, as well out our cactus, succulents, western, and other outdoorsy elements for our projects this month.

 I knew I wanted to play with the adorable Cactus Medley for this one. I have seen a few great silhouette look cards using it, and thought I would try my hand at one.

 Once again, I had a blast playing with some fun, ombre looks. I blended darker inks on the Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron, and Purple Posy Cardstocks in the "photos" as well as on the Designer Series Paper that is included in the Flowering Cactus Product Medley.

There is a LOT of texture on this card - 

• One of the dies in the Medley, creates the tall cactus on the left. It also creates the texture in it as it cuts the outline.
• After cutting the second cactus die, I ran it back through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine with the Little Details Embossing Folder.
• For just a little extra texture, I tore the Basic Black Cardstock for the ground piece instead of cutting it.
• In addition to using a few Artistry Blooms Sequins, I added some of the great Felt Flowers from the Medley.

I've been having a blast playing with this great Product Medley, and I definitely think that it is one that has a lot of versatility.

I want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me. When you place your order this month, please use hostess code FQ9G4D7B. Remember also, that I will send you a free tutorial bundle when your order reaches $50 or more!

#tgifc306 Color Challenge - Stampin' Up! Pretty Perennials and Daisy Mash Up

 Hi there! Happy Friday!!! I can hardly believe it's March - already? again? finally? It seems like all of those are appropriate! Any way that you look at it, we are here, and at TGIF Challenges, a new month means a new color challenge!

 While these colors screamed Mardi Gras to me, when I sat down the other day, I could not figure out a way to make that work for me! Maybe I can try again later this month. I still wanted to make a pretty, Spring feeling card, so out come some of my faves....

 The Buffalo Check, and Daisies are definitely go-tos for me, and now I have a new one - Pretty Perennials. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it, and think that it's one of the best floral sets we've had in awhile! 

 Remember the other day when I mentioned I've been on a HUGE ombre kick? Well, this card is another one that showcases some ombre looks.

• I used a Sponge Dauber to add the Just Jade ink to the Buffalo stamp, as well as the Gorgeous Grape ink to the punched out daisies.
• The Square Vellum Doilies add a soft little detail, even if just peeking out from the bottom of a layer. Don't forget to trim off the rest to use on another project.
• I love using the Clear Faceted Gems on floral cards, they remind me of little dew-drops!

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I also want to take a moment to thank you all for all of the support that you show my business. It means the world to me.

We Create Blog Hop - Cut It Out - Stampin' Up! Snailed It!

 Hi!!! Welcome back everyone, Happy March to you. Sure hope you are having a wonderful day. Thank you for stopping by. I am happy to be hopping with my friends at the We Create Blog Hop. This month's theme is "Cut It Out" - Use your Paper Snips, your paper punches or your die cut machine - just get to cuttin' ! 

 I really didn't use a lot of dies, but I did use one of my favorite sets! I LOVE the Playful Alphabet Dies, they are so useful! I did do a bit of a fun technique with them though...

 I recently gave a virtual presentation on some different ways to get an Ombre look in your paper crafting projects, and this was one of my samples! (By the way, be prepared to see quite a bit of Ombre this month! LOL)

 This card has three different ombre looks. The first was created in the background, using different ink pads, one was created for the "SMILE" letters, and one on the Rhinestones.

•  To create the background. Choose three shades of the same color. For this one, I chose Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and Bumblebee. Stamp your image in the lightest color towards the top, the next darker color towards the center of the project, and finally the darkest color towards the bottom. Bonus by doing it this way - if you are careful, you don't even have to completely clean your stamp in between colors!
•  To create these ombre rhinestones, I started with the Holiday Rhinestone pack, and used my Blends to add darker color to two of them!
•  For the letters in SMILE - I used the Modern Label punch and punched two each of So Saffron, Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie and then used my Blends markers once again to create darker shades of each color. I then glued these down to a scrap of Basic White cardstock before cutting them with the Playful Alphabet Dies.

 I love the happiness that this monochromatic, ombre card conveys. I truly it hope it makes the person I send it to smile!

 Enjoy the rest of the hop today, I am so excited about all of the projects the team has created. Next up is Cheryl Curtis
