Three Cards for Wednesday

 



Hello and happy Wednesday.  My first card today is a sweet little shaker card using some of the fun stamps and dies in the latest My Monthly Hero kit, and is inspired by several challenges: The sketch at CAS Colours & Sketches #428, Stay Craft with Hero #25: Interactive (shaker card), Just Us Girls #592: Recycle (my shaker is made with a piece of acetate from an old PTI stamp packaging), and Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies.











Next up is a card using the colors from this week's Color Throwdown #651, and is also inspired by the challenge at A Blog Named Hero to use repetition.  I pulled out this older Hero Arts birthday background stamp that repeats several birthday messages across the entire card front.  I used white heat embossing and then sponged and blended my colors.  I am entering this card at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Emboss It and Addicted to Stamps and More #409: Any Occasion.








Last up for today is a card inspired by the challenge at Poppystamps #82: Just Add Water.  I used water colors to loosely draw a little pond using Spring Rain reinker drops, a water brush, and then some WOS for shimmer.  I then added a big family of Whittle Ducks, swimming off to have an adventure.  I am also entering this card at  Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies.





Thanks for Visiting

  4. I've never thought to use that wonky window die on an angle, and I love how it looks! Thanks for that inspiration. Great ink-blending on the birthday card. I love your Whittle ducks!!! (My whittle collection will obviously need to grow bigger, lol.) Thanks for joining us at Addicted to Stamps and More!
