I am so excited to be participating the very first Cloud9 blog hop. I don't have too many WPlus9 sets to choose from yet, but that is why it is called a challenge, right?
Here is the inspiration photo this month:
I used the colors as my primary inspiration, and stamped a couple of images from Magical Moments in Pure Poppy, Orange, Zest, Harvest Gold, and Ocean Tides. My sentiment and card base are kraft, a nod to the raffia on the table skirt. I impressed the card front with the Canvas impression plate, to give the card a bit of texture. I also used a technique I learned in a recent PTI Make it Monday video about masking the sentiment.
I'm off to check out the rest of the participants. Happy hopping.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: WPlus9 Magical Moments, PTI Think Big
Paper: White, Kraft
Ink: Kraft, Pure Poppy, Orange Zest, Harvest Gold, Ocean Tides
Other: Canvas/Linen Impression Plate
Thanks for Visiting

I really like your great stamping on this one Joyce...love the way you masked out the sentiment. I must have missed that MIM, but it looks fabulous on this card. You nailed the colors and the overall feel of the inspiration photo.
ReplyDeleteFabulous card, Joyce! Love the colors and the images you chose remind me of the swirly paisley pattern! I haven't done a MIM for ages but I really liked the effect of a masked sentiment. It looks great on your card too!
ReplyDeleteOooh Joyce! I LOVE the stamping with the IP! This is gorgeous. I have never tried this and would be scared it would hurt the inking somehow. You did this perfectly. Love that sentiment stamp too. Thanks so very much for joining us! :)

ReplyDeleteHi Joyce! I am so far behind in blog visiting, but I just took a leisurely stroll through your blog from the last time I visited. What a plethora of fabulous creations! I especially love this gorgeous take on the Cloud9 inspiration photo. Fabulous design and use of color. Love the masking of the sentiment. Excellently executed!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome use of the colors from the photo, Joyce! I love the look of the single layer with the masked sentiment panel, and the impression plate adds just the right texture.
ReplyDeleteAmazing one layer card, Joyce! Beautiful colours and great masking technique. Great work. So glad you played with us @ Cloud9:)
ReplyDeleteJoyce, I love your interpretation of the inspiration photo. The rich colors you used really get a kick with the added touch of the canvas texture. The masked sentiment panel is fantastic, too! Thanks for joining us for the Cloud9 Blog Hop!
