With Love (Guest Designer)

Hi Everyone!
Today I am a guest designer for Die Cuttin Divas. 

Thank you so much to their team 

for allowing me to be a guest.

This challenge is a card sketch.

Here is my take on the sketch:

For my card, I used the Peonies stamp set by Avery Elle. I heat embossed and fussy cut the flowers, leaves and vase from the set. The vase I heat embossed with glitter embossing powder then added some Crystal Clear glitter pen 

(Spectrum Noir) for some fun sparkle.

I added the flowers and vase to a die cut circle then layered that onto two die cut Stitched Rounded Rectangles (Pink and Main stamps). Then I die cut the sentiment "With Love" and added it to the card, finally I finished it with two coordinating buttons tied with some Natural Twine. I hope you are inspired by my card and I can't wait to see 

what you create for the Challenge! 

Check out the challenge {here}.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Hi everyone!

Today starts a new challenge 

for Pink & Main stamps.

This month its a color theme.

Here is the card I created inspired by these colors.

 I stamped and colored flowers from two new sets- Hummingbirds and Doodled Flowers.

I used copic markers and some white gel pen accents, I added some glitter, stickles glitter and liquid pearls to a few of the flowers. The sentiment is from the new planner set, Banner Alpha. There are just so many possibilities with that set, even if you aren't into planner stamping. 

I hope you join this month's fun new challenge!

Have a wonderful day!

Hi! Okay this is my last card for today!!
I love the look of the outline floral stamps but I don't purchase a lot because I never know what to do with them. So when I saw this technique Donna Mikasa shared on this day I knew I had to try it out.
I love the way it turned out!

The sentiment reads: Our prayers are with you.
