Dreamer

I just got a small haul in from Butterfly Reflections Ink and I had to use the new Pink Paislee Hello Sunshine stamp/die set.  It's awesome the die is included with the stamp set and I love how there is a space built right in on the front.  :)


For my card, I followed the sketch for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.  It's fairly simple and allows you to display beautiful pattern paper.

I am using paper from the Pink Paislee Hello Sunshine 6x6 Paper Pad.  I diecut two full umbrellas and two umbrella tops from different papers.  Then I trimmed the pole parts and adhered them to the bases.  I only used one on my card, so I put the extra one in the back on my stamp package for  future use.  I rounded the corners using my WRMK Corner Chomper and stamped my sentiment using VersaFine Crimson Red.  Love this card!  Thanks for the challenge!

Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #4

 Yay, it's that time again for the Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge!!  Challenge #4 is themed ''April Showers Brings May Flowers''.  Please interpret that how you like.  You can check out some inspiration and the guidelines on the challenge post here.

Guess what??  Our challenge is sponsored this time around!!  And by none other than Butterfly Reflections Ink!


Vanessa has offered to send something that will totally go with this theme and something I want myself.  It's the new Hello Spring by Pink Paislee.  The winner of this challenge will receive a 6x6 paper pad, stamp set, and puffy stickers from the collection.  I hope this in motivation to get creative!



Here is my card for the challenge.  I am in love with it.  The papers come from Glitz Hello Friend and MME Honey Cake 6x6 paper pads.  Aren't the clouds in the background cool?  I used my MFT ALM The Rainbow Will Come Stamp along with Lawn Fawn Say Cheese for a great combination.  The sentiment comes from MFT The Great Outdoors, which has a lot of sentiments for rain, clouds, rainbows, and sunshine.  I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink for all my stamping, except the polaroid which is stamped in Memento Summer Sky.  


I used my MFT Mini Monarch Border Die-namics and layered four die cuts to get this gorgeous texture here.  My banner comes from MFT First Place Ribbon Die-namics.  I added a pink button and twine from Queen & Co. 


I stamped my image on Neenah Solar White cardstock and coloured her face, hair, hands, pants, and umbrella pole using my copic markers.  I stamped the jacket and umbrella on paper from the Honey Cake pad.  I used my colics to shade.  Lastly I added some tiny pearls to her jacket buttons.
