Hello there. I'm here to post a couple of cards I've made recently.
First up is a little floral number inspired by both this card by Kay Miller during the recent PTI release as well as the photo from Fusion's 2nd Anniversary Challenge.

| Kay's Card |

| My Card |
From Fusion, I was inspired by the flowers, the colors and the yellow chevrons. From Kay's card, I was inspired by her overall card design as well as the little copic dots she used on her card. My dots were not as subtle as Kay's but I do think I shared her fear as I also added my dots after the card was otherwise complete.
I am also entering this card at PTI Create Along with Us, Curtain Call, where the challenge is 'Girly' and Just Add Ink #294: Add Something New (One Big Happy stamps and dies are new on this card).
My dear friend Jeanne sent me a very fun die for Christmas, and I have used it here on this card that I plan to enter at The Male Room #26: Anything Goes and Seize the Birthday where the topping is Clean and Simple.
Inkspirational is celebrating their 100th challenge with a Colour Blast from the past. I used color scheme #87--Anything Goes with Kraft.
My last card uses 2 new dies--a tag die from Reverse Confetti and the Boxed Up Thanks from Lil Inker. I used a piece of ombre paper from a big pad I bought at Michaels for the tag as well as the background.
I just realized that there is no stamping on this card. I need to remember this if I ever see a 'no stamping' challenge.
I am entering this card at Simon Says Wednesday Ombre challenge and Addicted to Stamps and More #176 Anything Goes.
Thanks for Visiting
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteSuper trio of cards. Loving the simplicity of the bold striking star card, wonderful! Thanks for sharing at The Male Room.
ReplyDeleteGreat array of cards! Love your colorscheme for the flowers better (not to bright but lovely sunny!). The stars make a perfect CAS-card (less on it would be too little) and the die is a fun one! Hope you have a fun and colourfull week!
ReplyDeleteFabulous selection of cards. I love the colourful stars and the clean, simple layout - a great guy card. Thanks so much for playing along with our Anything Goes challenge at The Male Room! Deborah, DT.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful array of cards here, Joyce! Love your interpretation of Kay's card. The colors of sunshine!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had some fun crafty time. I adore your Fusion card, love how you have subtly built up the flowers and the comic dots look great. Really like that star die and love the moment you have created here. You have rocked this tag die. I try to add tags to cards but with no real luck! Thanks for joining Fusion and Ink. Hope you have a fun week x

ReplyDeleteLovely card. Your cased card is stunning.
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce! You know I'm a flowery girl so I'm all over the first card. I love the yellow and pink together and all the little extras you added like the dots and sequins. Total eye candy that makes my heart happy. I am also so happy you are playing with your stars.. I knew they were you when I saw them!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards! Such fabulous designs!! So pretty!!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for joining us this week at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!

Love those "happy" flowers. I haven't inked up that set yet. The stars are so much fun with their outline stitching and I don't know how you got the die and tag the exact same size. Great look.
ReplyDeleteGreat projects! Love the pretty flowers. Thanks for playing along with us at the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge.
ReplyDeleteI love the bold colours of those stars - what a great design! Thank you for joining us at Inkspirational Challenges. Come back next time! Marina
ReplyDeleteCool ombré with the bold die cut, Joyce ... such fun and celebratory stars ... and oh my goodness, that floral delight ... it's stunning! Gorgeous vibrant colours in such a beautiful bouquet ... love the addition of the little dots ... would have been holding my breath all the way through doing that!! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful cards! I love the recreation of the first. The color scheme on the stars card is wonderful! Love the clean design and the faux stitched stars. Thanks for sharing with us at Inkspirational!
