Avery Elle June Challenge #2

I just wanted to share another card that I made from the above sketch from Avery Elle. As I said in my last post, I love to get color combos from home decor and little girl dresses. I saw this color combo on a sundress the other day. So bright and cheery!!


The peach sentiment label in the center is embossed in white and the border is clear embossed and popped up with dimensionals - Frames Fonts. I really love this flower stamp sets from Avery Elle - Petals & Stems. Oh, and I just bought the matching dies. YIPPEE!! I love to have matching dies for my stamps. Finally, the red edge running down the left is also embossed with clear embossing powder. Hope you like it! Have a great day!

Avery Elle June Challenge

This is the layout challenge from Avery Elle for June. I have fallen in love with their style of stamps, check them out here.
I used a color scheme inspired by a PILLOW I saw at Target. I love to walk though the bedding isle just to check out the color schemes (ask my kiddos). Oh, and little girl dresses, they also have great colors! Thanks for checking out my card, hope you like it!

Supplies: All Squared Up from Avery Elle, Inks from Stampin Up- Island Indigo, Pear Pizzazz, Pure Poppy, Peach Parfait. The band down the left side is Basic Gray CS & Ink also SU.

Make It Monday #119: Flagged Borders

I am playing along with this Make it Monday so late on Sunday, silly girl I am. I watched Dawn's video  and fell in love with how cute those banners are. I totally copied Dawn's card but it is sooooo cute, I just couldn't help myself. Check it all out here: http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2013/06/make-it-monday-119.html

Lil' Inker Challenge Hop #2

 Here is my second card for the Lil' Inker Challenge from the inspiration photo above. Again, I was inspired my the colors- Orange, Aqua, & Yellow, but this time I was also inspired by the 3 panels across the bottom of the photo. 
I used the scallop border from the Mom & Dad Sentiments set and curved it on my acrylic block to make banners. And the scallop is so easy to line up to make it longer. I hope you like it !

Lil' Inker Designs Challenge Hop


I just discovered Lil' Inker Designs and I LOVE IT! http://shoplilinker.blogspot.com
 I just love the style of the stamps, the matching dies, and that a lot of their dies have these adorable dash lines around the edges. I love it! So, I saw this little Challenge Hop, and we all know how much I love a challenge. I was inspired by the colors in the photo- Orange, Aqua, & Yellow. (ADORABLE!)


I took my score pal and scored the background in 3/4 inch diagonal lines to create the embossed pattern. I found that the lines made it so much easier to space my little diamonds. I embossed the Hello, added black rhinestones, and add foam pop up dots. I hope you like it! Thanks for the challenge. 

Supplies: All stamps from Lil' Inker, PP from SU-Brights DSP, Score Pal, A muse rhinestones, SU white embossing powder, Versa Mark Ink pad.
