New Challenge at Inkspirational!



Hi friends!
We have a new challenge, a fun photo inspiration at Inkspirational

I was inspired by a lot in the photo: The clouds, the love word (I also tried to incorporate the patterned look of the letters in the photo) and also the overall color scheme comes from the inspiration. The Ellen Hutson flower image is colored with Copics and gel pens. The background is stenciled with white pigment ink. I did need to add quite many layers to get it to show! I think my white ink might be drying out...  The die cut letters and the stencil are both by Marianne design, the background stamp I used for the pattern in the letters is super old, maybe by Prima, can't be sure! The rectangle die is by STAMPlorations. Hope you like and I look forward seeing you play along!

Time Out Challenges Reminder!


HI friends!
I'm here to remind you of our current challenge at TIME OUT where we have a wonderful photo inspiration for you:


Click HERE for all the challenge details and more inspiration from our design team and our guest designer Greta. I've been familiar with her blog for years and admire her card making -do check her work out if you don't know her already!

For my card I colored the wonderful Mondo Sakura flower stamp by Ellen Hutson with Copics and gel pens. I was also inspired by the turqouise wall you see in the photo and used a Tim Holtz embossing folder I thought looked similar. I used some blue ink and sanding to make the embossing more distressed looking. I used a white heat embossed greeting on black for the sentiment and some clear sequins for embellishments. Hope you like and see you at Time Out!

Hi friends!
We have a new challenge for you at Inkspirational Challenges, a word prompt "Cloud"! 


I used background paper with cloud images to ground my Ellen Hutson flower, colored with waterolors. The sentiment is by Taylored Expressions. I finished the card with some sequins. This card couldn't be much simpler! :) 

Please head oon over to our challenge blog for more inspiration from the design team and for all the challenge details. Happy crafting, I hope to see you joining us!

Time Out Challenges Reminder!


Hi friends!
I'm here to remind you of our current challenge at TIME OUT where we are CASEing this fantastic card by Michele:


Michele is one of my favorite bloggers and also a regular player at TIME OUT. I really love her style! If you don't know her blog I card Everyone, you know what to do next! :) 

I CASEd pretty much all the elements in Michele's card... I only changed the colors and layout. My hidden sentiment is very hidden, oops... But I guess you can somehow read it! :) Should maybe have added black layers under the top one instead of white. Oh well! The sentiment die is by Ellen Hutson (thank you TO DT friend Jill for sending me this last year!) and the stamped sentiment is by Happy Little Stampers, our sponsor. The stencil I used comes from Simon Says Stamp.



All our challenge details and lots of DT inspiration can be found HERE. Our guest designer this time is Bobby -also a regular at TO and one of my favorite card makers in blog land! Just love Bobby's eye for detail! Play along and you could be chosen as guest designer as well... Happy crafting!
