New November Color!

Hello Everybody!

November 1st means it's time for a new challenge at the Rainbow Card Challenge. This month we are all about the color Sage.  

This was a hard color for me. I think it is beautiful but not a color I use a lot. I was lucky that I had some paper in sage.  So here's my card:

I used clear embossing powder and a handwritten stamp from Stampin Up for the back panel. For the middle panel I used clear embossing paste with an older Tim Holtz stencil. The dragonfly is a Tim Holtz/Sizzix die. I just love this dragonfly! And the sentiment is a Queen and Company die cut. 

Be sure to check out the cards made by the team. They did a beautiful job using the color Sage.

Until next time my friends! :)

 

Happy Birthday Elena!

Hello Everybody!

It is a special day today! Our friend Elena from the Rainbow Card Challenge is having a birthday! Happy Birthday sweet lady! :)

Elena --->Stop by and wish Elena a Happy Birthday! :)

Here is the card I made for Elena.  I embossed a navy blue Stampin Up cardstock and then lightly brushed gold brilliance ink tsukineko on the raised edges.  The red center is Tim Holtz alcohol inks.  The butterfly is gold glitter paper and a Tim Holtz butterfly die cut.  And the sentiment is from Taylored Expressions-the stamps and die cut.  I also used a gold Prismacolor Marker to outline the panels.

I am submitting this card to the Seize the Birthday Challenge #199 Toppings die cuts and stamped images.

Thank you for stopping by! Until next time my friends! :)

Angel Birthday Card

Hello Everybody!

One of my favorite stamp sets is an angel set from Jane's Doodles.  They are clean and simple and bring joy.  Here is a birthday card I made for a friend of mine who loves angels.

The background is a stencil from Simon Says Stamp and I used Art Anthology Splashed Sorbet which is a glittery clear dimensional paint.  And along with the Jane's Doodles angel I used Taylored Expressions stamp and die cut (sentiment strips).  I got the stamp and die cut for Christmas and I love them!  I colored this little angel with Prismacolor markers (also a Christmas present so I am feeling very loved and creative right now!).

There are so many great challenges going on right now and I would like to submit this angel card to the following:

Rainbow Challenge: #13 Wonderfully White--Use white (monochromatic) on a card.  Also, a DT call so go check it out!

Watercooler Wednesday- Anything goes with a twist: Feminine 

Use Your Stuff: Anything Goes (I have had the stencil for at least 6 months and the art anthology paint for going on 2 years)

Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time my friends!
