Stampin' Up! Oh So Succulent Mother's Day Card

Isn't this card absolutely gorgeous! It's total eye candy, I love it! I was inspired to create this card because I really wanted to use the Oh So Succulent stamp set. It's on the Retiring List and I hadn't yet had the chance to create with it. 

This week my teams color challenge was an interesting one...Perfect Plum, Pool Party, and Crushed Curry. I wasn't feeling inspired by the colors but this stamp set helped me create a beautiful card using this interesting color selection and I actually like these colors together now! What do you think??

Stampin' Up! Cheers Everyday Tags Wedding Card

Today's project is a lovely non-traditional wedding card. I randomly selected the colors for this card...I wasn't sure about them, but the more I have stared (yes, stared) at this card the more I love it! This week I challenged my team of Quitabug Stampers to make a wedding/anniversary themed card. This is my contribution to this week's theme challenge. What do you think?

Project Measurements Delightful Dijon card base 5.5" x 8.5" scored at 4.25" Delightful Dijon layer 4" x 5.25"

The Delightful Dijon layer was inked with Delightful Dijon using one of our Stamping Sponges. 

Strips of ribbon and a torn piece of Pop of Pink Washi is layered behind the heart. The heart has been stamped with Watermelon Wonder Ink using an image from the Work of Art stamp set. The sentiment comes from the Everyday Tags stamp set. Gold Metallic Thread is looped behind the heart. A tiny gold enamel heart was added to the bottom right of the card. 

Both the heart and Delighful Dijon layers are attached using dimensionals. And of course my envelope has been stamped for that extra sweet touch!

Stampin' Up! Sponging Technique- You Light Up My Life

Happy Monday!
I am super excited about today's card! I played around with sponging and I'm pretty impressed with how this card turned out! I used 3 shades of ink to create the background and I think it makes this card really pop!
