INKspired Colour Combo Challenge 113 -

Hello and welcome everyone to another INKspired blog hop - this is a colour combo and I find this hard to do - that is to limit to the colours below. Teneale has given us great colours to work with but it has taken me awhile to be happy with my card.

You may have started here or come straight across from the delightful 

Julie Martin and I love what she makes 

Started with a base card of Smoky Slate and then added the Petal Pink double layer that had been embossed with the Scripty 3D embossing folder. 

I started with the flowers from Beautiful Friendship stampset using the above colours on a piece of Whisper White cardstock and then I cut the shape out with one of the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. 

I used the Layered with Kindness stampset - see below as I love the words.
for my friend. I stamped twice in the Smoky Slate ink using my Stamparatus. Then used the Label Me Fancy Punch.


Lastly the inside of my card where I used the script from the Very Versailles stampset in Smoky Slate ink and stamped the flower from Beautiful Friendship over the top.

Thank you for stopping by - now it is onto Barb Williams 

and I can't wait to see what she has made.

Until next time

Happy stamping

INKspired Sketch Challenge 109 -

Welcome to our INKspired sketch blog hop this sunday night. I cannot believe it is November already but the weather we have been having is very wintery with snow and rain. My heart goes out to everyone that has been affected by the bushfires - stay safe! Now you may have hopped across from Julie Martin and I can't wait to see what she has made for the hop  tonight. Don't forget to pop around to everyone's blog and we would love it if you leave some kind words for us all.

Well I am loving the Christmastime is here suite that is available this month only or while stocks last- click here to see it. I had to use some of the gorgeous speciality DSP for my card that I cut with the Roses Dies - so quick and easy to make cards with. I haven't been making Christmas cards with the suite but instead birthday cards as roses are one of my favourite flowers.  

Started with Cherry Cobbler as my base card and then cut another piece that I embossed with the Scripty 3D embossing folder

Edged it with small pieces of another sheet of DSP that was scalloped using a die from
the Budding Blooms Dies

A piece of linen thread wrapped around twice and tied in a bow.

Thank you for stopping by -

 Now it is onto the lovely Kozue Smith and I always love what she makes for the hop.

Until next time

Happy stamping
