Hello There - CTD618

Hi there! I’m hostess this week over the Color Throwdown Challenge and I’ve chosen the fall colors of green, brown, orange and red. I hope you’ll join in and play along.
For my card I used some new to me products by Ink to Paper/Papertrey Ink. I started out using the Feathered Friends Mini 1 stamp set and the coordinating  Feathered Friends Mini 1 die. I stamped the bird in pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler ink with chocolate chip for the eye and feet. Next I used the stamp set, Blossoming Branches with the Blossoming Branches dies and stamped the branches in chocolate chip, the leaves in new leaf and the blossoms in pumpkin pie with chocolate chip centers.
Once that was done, I used an Outside In Stitched Square die and die cut it from white card stock and then stamped my sentiment which was from the Feathered Friends Mini 1. I used the Outside In Stitched Rectangle die with some Papertrey Ink orange zest polka dot paper and a strip of cherry cobbler card stock along the bottom. I added my stitched square and bird with foam tape and glued on a few white frosted mini sequins.

Hello, Lovely - CTD617

Hello there! It’s time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge and we have some great new colors to create with.
For my card I used some products from The Greetery. I started out using the Budding Beauties stamp set and Budding Beauties dies and stamped them in real red ink and limeade ice and new leaf inks for the stems.

Next I used the Sprinkled With Kindness stamps and dies for my watering can and stamped it in pumice stone and hickory smoke distress inks and finally I used Robin & Wren stamp set and dies and stamped them in kraft, chocolate chip and pumpkin pie. I die cut a scalloped white square for the top portion on my card base and added a piece of kraft colored gingham paper along the bottom and then attached my images using foam tape.

Always - CTD616

Hello there! It’s time for this week’s Color Throwdown Challenge where we have some cozy colors to create with.
For my card I used the Waffle Flower stamp set Always along with the coordinating Always dies. I absolutely love these images designed by Flora Waycott, they are so fun to color and create with. I kept my card fairly clean and simple with the focus on the images. I stamped and die cut all of my images and then colored them using Copic markers. 
Next I used the Single Stitched Line Rectangle Frames dies and die cut a piece of white card stock. Once that was done I blended on some antique linen distress oxide ink and using my Misti tool stamped my sentiment. I adhered my blended rectangle piece to a white card base and added my images, popping up the girl with bird.
