Thanks and Thinking of You

Posted by on June 20, 2011 in Challenges, Distress inks, Stamping, Thank you | 6 comments

Hi everyone,

I had a really crafty weekend and made a whole heaps of cards…what a great way to spend a weekend I say!!

This first card is one I created for the Play Date Cafe challenge #86 where the colour challenge was pink, sky blue and orange. Such fun summery colours…check out the inspiration photo.

So I got out my WaltzingMouse “Teeny Trees” stamp set and had some fun playing and this is what I came up with! This is my first play along with PDCC.

The sentiment is a rub-on and I stamped the circles with Distress inks (loving these inks at the moment!)

The second card I want to share with you is one that is very similar to this card I made a couple of weeks ago…this time I tried blue distress inks with a different sentiment. I really love this one. The white in the middle of the flowers is white enamel accents from Ranger. (And if you are reading this Katrina – this is one of the ones that is coming your way very soon in your little bundle of cards!)
