INKspired Colour Combo Challenge 128 -

Hello and welcome to our Sunday night blog hop.

You may have hopped across from  Julie Martin  

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

Now below are the colours that Teneale has given us to work with and I thought male cards

for this combo and keep it simple.


Now I started with the Game On stamp set - a great male set. 


I had two cards one Misty Moonlight & one Mossy Meadow as the base. I then embossed a piece of Sahara Sand with Bricks & Mortar 3D embossing folder and the other piece with Old World paper 3D embossing folder - love how they both came out and stamped the squares in Sahara Sand on them both. The card on the left I used all four colours and coloured the chess pieces in Rococo Rose. The one on the left I didn't use all four colours on. The layering squares go so well with this set and as you can see I switched the scalloped square to be opposite to the main card colour.



Used for the inside page  Very Vanilla cardstock and stamped the squares in Sahara Sand and the words in Memento - It's your day enjoy it!





Thank you for stopping by 

Now it is onto Katrina Healy 

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

Don't forget to pop around and see everyone's creations



Until next time
Happy stamping, stay safe and 
be kind to one another.

INKspired Colour Combo Blog hop 126 -

Hello and welcome everyone to another sunday night INKspired blog hop 

Now you may have hopped across from 

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


Now I started with a few different cards but the colours were not working for me at all. I finally decided on Basic Gray as my base card and the used the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder on Shaded Spruce cardstock on top.


Stamped the car from Geared Up Garage stampset in memento ink and coloured with Merry Merlot Stampin' Write marker - no Stampin' Blend in this colour.
Used Basic Gray ink on the Just Jade cardstock for the words - You're a Classic.
Popped up my car with dimensionals.
I stamped the words- All Geared Up to celebrate and a toolbox on the inside in Basic Gray but forgot to take a picture - will add it tommorrow.



Thank you for stopping by.

Now it is onto Barb Williams and her creation.




Until next time
Happy stamping, stay safe and

INKspired Scrap add Plaid 125 -


Well hello and welcome to another sunday night blog hop. You may have hopped across from Allison McLeod and I can't wait to see what she has made 

The inspiration for tonight from Teneale is to add Plaid to our creation. Well I am not a scrapper so I always make a card instead.



I started with the lovely Whisky Business stampset as my stamp of choice.
You always need male cards and this is a great set to use.


I started with Basic Black as my base and then added a piece of the Plaid Tidings DSP to the front of my card.


I then cut a Very Vanilla Label using the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. Stamped my whisky bottle & glass in Memento ink so that I could colour in using the Stampin' Blends. I added the words stamped in Cinnamon Cider to the front on a piece of Crushed Curry cardstock. Punched the end using the Banners Pick A Punch.


Now here is the inside of my card using Very Vanilla cardstock with a strip of the same dsp to finish it off. This is a card that you could easily make a few of once you have cut & stamped out. I usually colour whilst listening to the television or the radio at night.

Thank you for stopping by

Now it is onto Teneale Williams to see her creation


Until next time
Happy stamping, stay safe and 
be kind to one another.

Kylie's International Blog Highlights October 2020 - Butterfly Beauty Thank You

 


Hello and welcome to Kylie Bertucci's October International Blog Highlights. I decided to join in again as it is a long weekend here in Australia and I had some spare time for creating. The top 10 winners will get to be part of an International blog hop so I would really appreciate you clicking on the voting button below and voting for me. You can vote for 5 cards so I would love mine to be one of them.

The theme is - Thank You

I love Butterflies and now that spring is upon us we start to see them fluttering around. I decided to use the Butterfly Beauty  Dies and cut one in Melon Mambo and the top one in Basic Black.


I started with a base of Melon Mambo and attached a piece of Soft Suede that had been embossed with the 3D Pinewood Planks. Reminds of the fence that the butterflies hover on at home. The words from Sending Sunshine were ideal for the front of my card inked in Memento on the Melon Mambo cardstock.


Now on the inside I attached a butterfly that I had cut off and stamped the words from the So Sentimental stampset that I love - "I can't Thank You enough".

Now below is the button to click on which will take you to see all the amazing cards everyone has made. Please take the time to pop in and check them out.








Until next time
Happy stamping, stay safe and 
be kind to one another.
