INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 51 -



Hello and welcome to my blog.You may have arrived from the delightful Allison 
and I can't wait to see what she has made...
Every fortnight Teneale Williams gives us a sketch that
we use and here is the one we are using
tonight
For my card tonight I started with Crumbcake as the base and used a strip of Dapper Denim that I embossed using the Petal Burst textured Impressions embossing folder
I wanted to use all the 2016-18 In Colors but the Emerald Envy seemed a bit over powering for the flowers.
So I settled on using the softer Pear Pizzazz for the leaves.
I forgot to go back and look at the sketch until
I had finished my card and then I realised
I had forgotten to add a sentiment.....No room now for a
sentiment. Oh well next time I will check the sketch..again  
 I used the versamark and stamped the little bunch of flowers from the stampset onto the
crumbcake so it didn't look so empty!
Added the Pearls and I was finished.

Thank you for stopping by
Now it is onto the amazing Barbara

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 50 - WOW!



Well hello and welcome to our INKspired blog hop and it is number 50! You may have popped across from the delightful Allison
and I can't wait to see what she has made..
Teneale Williams gives us a sketch that we use each fortnight and below is the one we are working with tonight.
I had a few card ideas going through my head .....
I have a friend's birthday coming up this week so 
decided a birthday card was in order.
I chose the lovely Flirty Flamingo for the base card and sponged Versamark around the edge. I then used a piece of Flirty Flamingo from the 2016-2018 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack.
I cut a piece of Whisper White smaller than the DSP
and used the large flower from the Stylish Stems Framelits Dies

The words were from the Dragonfly Dreams stampset
I then did some gentle sponging over the whisper white using Flirty Flamingo ink.


Love the beautiful DSP coming up from under the flower.

Thank you for stopping by 
tonight and
now it is onto the gorgeous Barbara
and I always love what she makes 



Bye for now.
