The House That Stamps Built: Inspiration Photo

Wendy has a lovely inspiration photo this week at

The House That Stamps Built.

 

 

I went with softer colors and the circle design using a new die cut

my hubby gave me for Christmas, Spellbinders Wreath.  I colored a

piece of cardstock with Brusho's and then die cut it.  I added Repeat

Impressions:1144-D, Anniversary in the center and added ribbon

 and some embellishments.

 

Inside the card Repeat Impressions 419-J, Another year . . .

Twofer

Had some free time so I was motivated by Darnell's Twofer Heart challenge,

I started with a new set from Stampin Up  Heartfelt and used the

lacey heart.  The first card is CAS, bear and sentiment from Lawn Fawn.

 The second card was the fun messy one, I embossed the

hearts randomly in clear, embossed one in silver.  Then used Distress

Oxides and smoosed until I liked my background.  Happy

Anniversary is from Repeat Impressions, and heart die is

Momenta.

It is going to be a rainy  weekend and possibly some snow tomorrow so I am

 planning a fun card making weekend. Out to lunch and shopping today with

hubby so got a card in this morning for Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge.

 

I used Distress Inks Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberry, and Cracked

Pistachio.   The colors are deeper than they look in the picture. Stamp set

is Sunny Side of Life by Amuse.

The House That Stamps Built: Designer Choice Challenge

Welcome to the first challenge of the year for The House That Stamps

Built!  It is a DCC-Designer Choice Challenge hosted by Shirley-

something that reminds you of your childhood.

 

I had quite a collection of stuffed animals and that Wendy's darling

teddy bears were my first thought.  Although I used pink and

added a bow I was not a frilly little girl. I liked playing

dolls with the girls but I also played with the boys

 since my brother is just a year older than me.

 

Wishing you much joy in 2020!
