Two Tone Flora Sympathy ~ HSS434, TGIFIC464


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #434.  This is such an interesting sketch and it took me some pondering before I came up with what I wanted to do.  
I finally settled on the idea that the images from the new stamp set Notes Of Nature would work nicely for the background shapes on the sketch.  I added some flowers in from Two Tone Flora in Bubble Bath and Soft Seafoam leaves to coordinate with the challenge from TGIF Inspiration Challenge #464.
I'm trying to build up my sympathy card stash, so I chose this sympathy sentiment from Inspired Thoughts.





Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Pastel Notes of Nature ~ HSS433, TTTC242, CTC459


Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge for March.  We are using Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, and Flirty Flamingo.
I was itching to play with my new set, Notes of Nature.  All the samples I've seen use greens and neutrals, but I think this turned out nice with pastel colors! 
I also used the inspiration from Tic Tac Toe Challenge with CAS/Thinking of You/Floral.
I'm also playing along with CASEing the Catty Sunday Challenge.  I cased the layout of the card on page 30 of the spring catalog.




Here's a list of my supplies.....
Stamps: Notes of Nature, Very Best Occasions
Paper: White
Ink: Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, Flirty Flamingo, and Memento Black

Happy Healing Fluffy Friend ~ HSS431


Hello Stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge #431.
I had a friend request a cute get well card for a family member, so this is what I whipped up using the fun Fluffiest Friends set.  I think this nice little kitty presenting a flower pot is cheerful and great for a happy healing card.
I added the fluffy little bird to the inside of the card.

Sparkle Parts and Pieces Christmas ~ HSS428


Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge for November.  
Do days ever sneak up on you?  Well, that was me today.  I quickly realized that it was time to get my card made for this challenge, only I had most of my stamping stuff packed up for a card class.  I scrambled together some of this and some of that...mainly things that were left over or cast offs from other projects.  This was not only a sketch challenge, but also a limited supplies challenge for me!  I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out, anyway.  I actually like it better in real life then in the photograph.  The colors didn't photograph very well.  It's got a ton of sparkle with the glittery paper and gold foil, plus the embossing and adhesive backed sequins.  This is a real more is more card, but that's what I tend to be drawn too.  
I hope you enjoyed today's card with too many throwback items to mention!
