The Flower Challenge #77 Reminder: Use Your Latest Stamps or Dies

 

Hi there. I'm here with a card to remind you... the Flower Challenge asks us to use

our latest stamps or dies.

My latest from Altenew was the Craft-A-Flower Open Peony die set. 

Hope you're playing along. Who doesn't have a newer stamp or die, and 

needs an excuse to use it? Play along for another 2 weeks.

Enjoy your week!

The Card Concept: Vintage Style

The Card Concept has a new challenge starting today, Vintage Style. Check out the

inspiration photo:

What inspires you? Lots of ways to go with this one, style wise.

I zoned in on the colors, and the many vintage layers, to create a Clean and Layered card.

The pink blossom on the pillow was another piece of inspiration. My flower is from 

Altenew's Peony Dream Die 3D die, and the background is Stamped from Altenew's 

Wallpaper Art.

The beautiful Alleluia is from The Greetery's latest release.

I'm looking forward to seeing how you were inspired. Hope to see your lovely

creations in the Card Concept's lineup! 

The rest of the sentiment is stamped on the inside, from the Greetery's Amen & Alleluia.

The floral decoration is from Altenew's Wallpaper Art.

Our challenges run for 2 weeks, and we love seeing how you were inspired!

The Card Concept: Pink Party

Welcome back to the Card Concept Challenge!

Hope your holidays were full and jolly. If they were anything like mine,

they were busy. So glad to be back in the craft saddle, and happy to be

bringing you inspiration for 'Pink Party'.

Our photo this week could be inspiration for color, items on the table,

or the contrast of pinks and black and white.

What inspires you?

Here's what I came up with:

The pink peonies inspired my Clean and Elegant with a bit of layering card.

The Ton's Dearest Peony centrally stamped, and colored with copics, then cut 

with PTI's Pierced Frames: Oval, are the main elements to my card.

 Just a bit of gold Stickles and a few gold sequins complete. 

I really wanted to emphasize all that bright white in the photo.

All right, now it's your turn. Can't wait to see how you are inspired!

Don't forget to pick one of the styles, or come up with one of your own!

Happy Crafting!
