Inspirational CASE

 

It’s Wednesday so time for a new challenge at Inkspirational and this week we have a CASE challenge for you.

 

I have used the Blooming with Kindness stamp set to create my card and I have gone very pink.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Blooming with Kindness

Card: Pretty in Pink, Rich Razzleberry, Very Vanilla 
Ink: Rick Razzleberry, Pretty in Pretty, Regal Rose

Accessories:  Pretty in Pink Ribbon (retired), Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

 

I have used Rich Razzleberry and Pretty in Pink card stock with some Retired Pretty in Pink Ribbon.  Love this ribbon and I am getting low but I love the bow so I have used my stash.

 

I have also included a copy of the Inkspirational CASE to show you.

 

 

 

The stamp was inked in Regal Rose ink and then I used the Rich Razzleberry marker to ink up parts of the flower.

I think this will make a lovely birthday card.

 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

CCC - Something Old & Something New

Hi everyone,

 

We have a great new challenge over at Crafty Creations this week, we want you to raid your stash and show us:

 

Something Old & Something New

 

Well I have done just that and here are the items I have used:

 

New: In-Colour Brads and stamp from the “Blessed Mother” stamp set
Old: Beautiful Butterflies Die & Eyelet Border Punch

 

The layout for my card is inspired by the Clean and Simple Sketch and I have used the sentiment from the Blessed Mother stamp set because I think it is perfect for a Mother’s Day card.

 

The sentiment reads: “You mean so much to me”

 

I purchased both the brads and the stamp set a while ago and they have not been used until now.

 

But my old favourites have been used a lot!

 

I have used some of the Tea for Two DSP and colours I have used are from the DSP.

 

Here is my card:

 

 

 

Supplies:
Stamp set: Blessed Mother
Card: Lucky Limeade, calypso Coral, So Saffron, Very Vanilla
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Beautiful Wings Embosslits, 2-3/8” (6cm) Scallop Circle Punch, 1-2/4” (4.4 cm) Circle Punch, Tea for Two DSP, In-Colour Brads, Eyelet Border Punch (retired), Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive
