New Challenge at Inspiration Station for 21 June 21

Hello and Happy Monday Friends!  It's the 3rd Monday of the Month and that equals a new challenge has started at The Inspiration Station.  Not to mention the date is 21 June 21 and the start of Summer Solstice!  The inspiration picture this month is:

This inspiration picture can be intrepreted in so many different ways and I found this challenge interesting.  I immediately knew what I was going to create for my design team project when I saw the picture.

I went with a Monochrome theme using images from the Altenew Trendy Circles Stamp Set and a sentiment from a Kelly Creates Stamp and Lettering Set.  A sweet and simple design that would be great for a masculine card and definitely worth repeating with color.

Please join us for the bi-weekly challenge at The Inspiration Station.  The Prize this round is a sweet Unicorn Coffee mini stamp set from Brutus Monroe. The inspiration photo is for your intrepretation so have fun with it and play along!

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Monochrome Hello Friend

 Hello and Happy Wednesday and I hope you've had a lovely day.  It's early evening as I type this post and I'm sharing a Monochrome Friendship Card created with the Gina K. Designs Forever Flowers Stamp set which is part of the Forever Flowers Card Kit.

I love color but was inspired to create a Black and White card after watching a Gina K. You Tube Video.  Her card was stunning so I wanted to give it a go.  I stamped the images with Versafine ink, die cut with the matching dies; which are part of the kit, and arranged all on a die cut oval panel.  I die cut two card panels with Kat Scrappiness Stitched Rectangle Dies, embossed the white panel with a Brick embossing folder, added clear gems and a gingham ribbon.  That completed this Monochromatic card; I do like the final result.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Creatalicious Challenges - Anything Goes with Optional: Monochrome

Hello and Happy Leap Year Saturday!  Today begins a new challenge at Creatalicious Challenges.  The theme this round is Anything Goes with an Optional Twist of Monochrome and our sponsor is the generous Fabrika Fantasy.  For my design team project, I used Spring Chick to make an Easter Card.  I tried to go with the Optional Monochrome theme but not sure if I got it or not.

This card measures the standard A2 and includes different layers of designer papers. Washi Tape, Sequins and foam pads for dimension.  

We hope you'll join us at Creatalicious this round, we would love to have you. 

Until Next time, Happy Crafting!

Creatalicious Challenges - Anything Goes with Optional Monochrome

Hello and TGIF!  Today begins a new challenge at Creatalicious Challenges, the theme this challenge is Anything Goes with an optional Twist:  Monochrome.  We also have a great sponsor this round as well, Dr. Digi House of Stamps is our sponsor.

I had the wonderful opportunity to use one of the Cuddly Critters stamps from Dr. Digi, Rabbit for my design team project.  I created a standard A2 card using some digital papers I had in my stash and chose to use the Twist of Monochrome.

This bunny rabbit come in a pre-colored image which I used here, or a black & white line image for your coloring pleasure.  I used orange and kraft as my monochrome theme; I do hope I achieved it. 

Please join us at Creatalicious for the challenge, we would love to see your designs.  Also, please visit my new challenge blog The Paper Funday Challenges where the theme this month is Anything but a Card with a Twist:  Use the color Green.  I would love to see you there.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
