I’m back again today for the same challenge as last post.  It’s this picture!  I just love it!

Here it is again. The February Inspiration challenge by Altenew

So today I have another card that is inspired by it. It’s more on the fancy side!

In my last post, I shared a picture of the place we stopped in Florida to snap some pics of the amazing flowers on this building.  Here is another picture

So you can see why I couldn’t get enough of this challenge and had to play with it twice!  With the extra bit of elaborate style, this card captures the feeling of this picture.

Again, I just love this Painted Flowers stamp set and dies by Altenew!  I also used this beautiful Prayers set by Hero Arts for the sentiment.

I clear embossed the die cut image on black paper and mounted it on black foam for a thick look.

Overall, I’m sure you can tell I just LOVED these flowers in Florida, LOVED how the Altenew challenge reminded me of them and LOVED playing with Painted Flowers to recreate the feeling of both.

Have a happy day!

I LOVED the picture that Altenew used for their Inspiration Challenge!

Not only because it’s beautiful as can be – but because it reminds me of a memory I have in my favorite place – Southwest Florida.  I had my husband stop in front of this building just so I could get out for a picture because the flowers were so gorgeous!!

So even though it’s been an incredibly busy month, I couldn’t let the month end without participating in this Inspiration Challenge with Altenew!

I’ve actually made two cards for this challenge because my inspiration was overflowing.  Today is card one and is on the simpler side of card design.

I used the beautiful Altenew stamp set and dies, Painted Flowers.  I stamped them on vellum and colored the back side with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.  After cutting them out and carefully adhering them, they added the delicate touch I wanted.

The cover-up die background is by My Favorite Things as is the sentiment.

My next card uses the same stamp set and color scheme but is has much more detail.  I can’t wait to share on Monday morning!

Stamping love!

A quick post to share this fun card that I made a bunch of

I grouped them together in sets of 5 with envelopes
​​

Then I tucked them in to a sheet protector and sealed all the sides up using the FuseTool

And the sets are complete. I used the Modern Blooms set by My Favorite Things and was able to make a bunch pretty darn quickly using the MISTI tool.
Such fun with stamping!

I always love a good clean and simple card. And the gals over at Case this Sketch always give fabulous inspiration to get started on one with their challenges. Today’s card was inspired by Sketch #204. ​

I couldn’t think of a color combo, so I also jumped in to another challenge by My Favorite Things. Their current color challenge is really pretty, so I used it to know what colors to grab for my card.

​

And here’s the card!
​​

I used Painted Flowers by Altenew and Simply Fab sayings by My Favorite Things (a stamp set I grab frequently!) I brushed a Spectrum Noir glitter pen over the flowers to finish it up.

And a Clean and simple card is finished -with a new favorite color combo added to my list.
Have a happy day

Playing with this Wednesday sketch today by My Favorite Things. 

​

​

I used the Beautiful Blooms stamp set and I couldn’t resist using some Spring colors! I’m sure it’s because of all the snow and gloomy skies where I live.

I love this stamp set and all the pieces that coordinate so well together. Not just pretty flowers, but long stems and foliage.

​
Another great thing about the set is how MFT has outlines around the flowers and their coordinating layers. Makes it easy to know what images go perfectly together!
​​

Blueprints die cuts are a staple in my collection and were a must in bringing this card together.

The collection I have from My Favorite Things, really is among my favorite things in my stamp stash!
Have a happy day ☺

I la la la la LOVE this Blooms n Buds set by Reverse Confetti! It was so much fun to play with while making this card. I can see myself using this one tons!

The flowers and their coordinating layers look so cute. And the matching dies just make it all the more awesome and easy to work with!
​​

Happy stamping

I love this set by Reverse Confetti! It’s so cute and I couldn’t wait to use it. So for my daughter’s birthday, I took the opportunity to make it into a birthday card

Using zig clean color markers and then adding glitter at the end were perfect for this little ocean scene.  I had so fun coloring all the different little ocean pieces.

My daughter loved it!
My Kids’ Creativity
That sweet birthday girl of mine, also sat down to create with me. And I loved what she came up with yet again!

On these cards, she doodled the little images herself. I’m always impressed with her doodling!

Always happy with the time spent stamping!

​It was a wonderful Christmas! I had so fun making these cards for parents. ​

The beautiful paper is from an old Stampin’ Up! stash. Pulling it out and using it, I easily remembered why I loved it so much back when I got it!

The alphabet dies are from My Favorite Things and were so fun to make in to a shaker feature!

​​

My kids creativity
One of my favorite gifts were these beautiful cards that my 15 year old daughter made for my husband and I. Her words we’re filled with gratitude on how special Christmas always is. And to see those words in cards that were so lovely- my heart was so touched.

​
It was truly a Merry Christmas! And I hope it was for all
☺Kellianne​

I needed two quick thank you cards. So I sat down to my stamp desk and with a few scraps leftover from other cards, I threw these together fast. I love this “fab sayings” stamp set by mft!

One of my favorite things about stamping time, is my kids sitting down with me to create too. Here is one that my 12 year old put together.

​
I was so impressed with the time she took on the details and did her own shading and everything!
Got the love of stamping in this house!
🙂 Kellianne​

When I saw this set in the Stampin’ Up! Mini, I loved it instantly!  It was super fun to play with and I love that it has coordinating dies.

Making my card a shaker added a fun element to this fun set!
