Sue B Mother's Day/Spring Flowers Challenge Inspiration

Happy Day All:

Sue B here with a little inspiration for the current Mother's Day/Spring Flower Challenge over at the BMCCS Get Inky! Stamps Challenge Blog. I got to break out a retired Close to My Heart B&T Duos Collection called Dotty For You. I also decided to use the current Get Inky! Moonbeams Club Sketch. I love this club as I get digi stamps to work with and a sketch to inspire me. Here is the end result:

The stamp set I used is Blue Moon Creation Crafting Station's Hoppy Spring 2014. I hope that you will come one over and enter the current Mother's Day/Spring Flower Challenge. Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to seeing your cards as well. Until next time...

Watcha Workin on Wedensday!

Hmmmm..... What am I working on???   Come check out the new challenge on May 13th to find out.

Hi, it's time for a new feature today I am (Ann) showing you how to make a simple Gatefold card that can have stunning results all depending on how you go about decorating  it.  Have fun.

Gatefold card

                                                                                               

From a piece of 6” x 12” card stock  measure in 3 inches from the left and 3 inches from the right and make a vertical score mark.  Fold each side in.

I hope that you find this fold simple to do and that it gives you some inspiration to make some fancy folds of your own.  For more fun ideas please stop by my blog: Annmakes.

Challenge Inspiration

Hello - Susan R here!

Just bringing you my inspiration for the new Get Inky! Challenge -

Stamping with Flowers...I am sure you will want to join in with this one!!

I actually have three ideas here - and, as usual for me, they are pretty 'CAS'

 - for more details please take a look at my blog

But basically I took the jar stamp from Get Inky! and stamped it
 over some paper 'stems', glued to a cream card base.

I masked the 'stems' with little pieces of paper so that the flowers looked

 as though they were in the jar.

I then added a little blue water colour to the jar for 'water'.

I then added flowers:

• My first idea was just to use some flower embellishments from my stash.
• My second idea was to make 'tulips' using a heart punch.
• My third idea - another Get Inky! Stamp stamped 5 times, with Hero Arts 'soft canteloupe' Shadow ink on a yellow-orange cardstock and then fussy cut.

The third is probably my favourite:

To finish I added buttons and a bow...

Hope you like it and will join the Challenge!

Copic Tip

Happy Thursday crafty pals! Thia here with your Thursdays Tricky Tip. I love my Copic Markers, very much. Here's a great idea for those times when you are looking for paper, dew drops, and ribbon colors that match...color them with your Copics! Yup, that's right! I'm sure you have white cardstock, right? Light colored ribbon? Clear dew drops? Color away! Grab a ziplock bag and put in the ribbon and dew drops add a few drops of ink and zip up. Then move the ink over the items, remove from bag, and allow to dry. Or, color the ribbon by hand. For the matching paper, you can color the entire thing or just edge it with the marker for a neat effect. How fun, your done! And you should have matching pieces for your project now too!
