Color Challenge Card – Finding inspiration

Nothing like a good color challenge to get you back into the craftroom. Since COVID19 hit, I have been balancing working from home, raising two beautiful spunky boys while growing their sister (for arrival end of July!), and continuing to try to find creativity. Let me tell you, its been hard since my home office is also in my craftroom. While before this pandemic, I would have given anything to spend all day in my craft room, I am finding it hard to want to visit after work hours.

When my creativity is in a rut I try to find inspiration in other ways. Luckily, my friend and Stampin Up! demonstrator posted a group challenge using colors that spoke to me, which turned into this beautiful card!

I used Stampin Up!s tranquil tulip set and my Simon Says Stamp ink in colors closest to Stampin Ups. Doll Pink, Green Apple, and Melon were the inks of choice!

I did multi generational stamping to get the two toned look of the flowers (stamping off for the lighter version).

I used a sentiment from the SSS Beautiful Butterflies set and added some yellow jewels for extra bling.

Where do you find inspiration when you need a pick me up?

The paper from the January #sssck is so awesome! P The paper from the January #sssck is so awesome! Packed full of these lovely shades of bokeh! I loved this grey and yellow variation. I again used the included die cut to cut snow flakes out of vellum this time, making them a little more subtle. I added snowflake sequins from #stampinup for a blizzard feel and unicorn confetti glitter to the bigger vellum flakes. Then finished it with the “Missing you snow much” sentiment. @simonsaysstamp has made sure my 2021 crafting was off to a beautiful and easy start with this kit!

This January #sssck was so simple but sooooo stunn This January #sssck was so simple but sooooo stunning! I used the metallic paper included in the kit and embossed with the included embossing folder. Then I used some alcohol inks on top. Cut the included snowflake out of some of that gorgeous bokeh paper and layered them with a white snowflake. Added some unicorn confetti glitter and oh man I’m in love. @simonsaysstamp does it again!

Playing with lighting and what better card to than Playing with lighting and what better card to than this vibrant thinking of you I made for a special request! I think that’s one of the best things about card making. Helping individuals with those unique requests that big box stores don’t always meet. Love this @pinkfreshstudio floral and sentiment and my FAVORITE cardstock color ever is @ginakdesigns powder blue. It’s so perfect with pink ink 😍

Did I mention I loved the heart garden stamp set f Did I mention I loved the heart garden stamp set from @simonsaysstamp  new release #sssloveyoutoo ? Because I do! Card number three I attempted a relaxed watercolor look. What do you think? And that reverse sentiment is amazing! We are planning a trip with friends to a cabin in hocking hills at the end of February and cannot wait! #quarentinevacation

Card number two with this awesome heart garden set Card number two with this awesome heart garden set from @simonsaysstamp! For this card I got out my #copic markers (the few I have!) and used a dot technique to shade the hearts and leaves in. I then cut the stamp into bundles to create a more dense garden! Added a #mom die and a reverse sentiment from sss and some background dots to finish it off!
