Color Throwdown #463 using SSS Fractile Leaves.

Happy Saturday!

I didn't think I would be getting to a post for the Color Throwdown Challenge #463 this week but thanks to Hurricane Nate....I had some time after prepping the house. 

The colors this week are Orange, White and Kraft.

I used the same SSS Fractile Leaves stamp set  in last weeks throw down but i just couldn't help using it again this week. 

 I used Ranger White Detail Embossing Powder to heat emboss the leaves and sentiment. The sentiment comes from the SSS Ornate Leaves stamp set. 

I used my Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor markers in orange tones for the leaves. I then embellished with some Nuvo Jewel Drops in Orange Marmalade.

Thanks for stopping by and be safe if in the path of Huricane Nate!

Neat and Tangled Topography Going Away Card

Welcome back!

Today I have a card using this awesome Neat and Tangled Topography Stamp set.
I just love that background set and adds so much interest and perfect for the going away card I made.

I first stamped the background in Versamark and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.
I then ink blended it with Distress Oxides in Worn Lipstick and sprinkled water.

I used my W Plus 9 stitched rectangle dies for the center part and stamped a sentiment from the stamp set in Versafine Ink. I accented with some Nuvo Jewel Drops.

A very simple card but really accenting that wonderful background stamp!

Thank you for visiting and have a awesome day!

Personalized Birthday Card using the Concord and 9th Perfectly Penned and Lawn Fawn Happy Happy Happy Stamp Sets

Happy Hump Day!

Easter is over and now back to other cards.
Today I have a Birthday Card I made for my co worker Jennifer.

I first did some ink smoothing with Distress Inks onto some watercolor paper
 for the background piece.

I then stamped the Lawn Fawn Happy Happy Happy Sentiment using Memento Dye Ink in similar colors. I wish a had a 'Dear" stamp to make it like the song but oh well.  I got inspiration from Jennifer McGuire's card that she used the same idea of the repeating sentiment.

I put both pieces on some black cardstock and then accented with these Nuvo Jewel Drops. 

I really loved how all the colors look on that black background. She had told me she loved bright colors and especially red and oranges and I was so happy when she opened it and really liked it!

Thank you so much for visiting!
