Color Inspiration – Thank you cards

I am back on the blog today with two cards that were inspired by an image I saw in a catalog with three similar colors. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use my Simon Says Stamp (SSS) ink colors to try and pull it off!

I pulled out the reverse polka dot background stamp from SSS. I used the following SSS ink colors: Lavender, Blue Jay and Lake shores. I started by placing the stamp in my Misti and grabbing a micro cloth to remove some of the ink to get a blended look. I stamped with Lake shores first, being sure to dab away the ink along the edge where the other colors were going to lay next to each other. I continued with the Lavendar next, and finishing with the Blue Jay.

The sentiment for this card is a die set called Tall Type Face from Concord and 9th. I love the whimsy of these letters! I made sure to cut them out of Neenah Solar White Classic crest 80lb 3 times and glued them together. I added some silver thread from my stash and punched out a white glittered heart to finish it off.

Card numero 2… Thank You.

I followed the same process when inking the background as I did with the first card. I used the Spellbinders Feb Small die of the month called Art Studio Botanicals and cut one layer out of white, and the other out of white glitter card stock. I wanted it to pop, so I carefully and painstaking cut foam squares down to conceal behind the die to give it that extra umph! Used a thank you sentiment from SSS Mom’s Meadow and finished the card off with some older white iridescent jewels from my stash.

So fun to just sit down and enjoy the creative process with these cards. Which one if your favorite? Let me know!

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!

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!
