Peachy birthday

Just a quick one from me today, another birthday card because .... I need them.  Using the peach suite this time.

The DSP makes it easy to have a great background and then some quick stamping and die cutting made this an easy one to pull together.  

I tried to double dye the ribbon this time too, I really loved the result.

I hope you find some time to be creative today also, happy stamping!

Inky Stampers Meeting

 

Another month, another Inky Stampers Virtual Meeting and this time around we had a great sketch to inspire us.  Of course, I was totally unprepared and the last to finish during our meeting.  I promise to do better with time management next time ladies.

I created using the Sweet as a Peach suite - its so easy to use.  Here is my version of the sketch.  

Our meetings are always fun, lots of laughs and its wonderful to see how different everyone creates using the same starting inspiration.  

Being a part of a team has been a great boost for me - I have people who 'get it'.  And encourage me no end.  I am thankful I have found such a wonderful group of ladies.  

Happy stamping,

A sweet mini gift box

 I've been playing with the Sweet Peach suite this week.  After making the donut box, I found myself turning to this easy construction once again and grabbing leftover DSP to decorate it.  In total, about 15 minutes from start to finish!  

The label was a quick stamped image and a sentiment cut to size to layer on top.  I love using the sponge daubers to add the touch of colour to the peaches and leaves.  

click on the above images for a larger version and see the details!

 YOU'RE A PEACH DSP is currently on Sale for 15% off ($17.00).  It's a beautifully versatile set of images and colours.  

If you are wanting your own set of Sweet as a Peach or simply like to collect Designer Series papers like a lot of us do, please contact me.  

Happy stamping,

Sunday FB Challenge - Tags!

This weeks challenge was tags, and I know most of the ladies so far have created just that - tags.  I tried to think out of the box a little and created a card featuring tags instead.  

I cut the tags and inked them after stamping the sentiments.  

This card turned out exactly as I imagined. 

 I've used the colour inspiration from the Sweet as a Peach collection but used the Artistically Inked dies for the background.  The sequins are also from the 'inked' suite and totally adorable!

Colour combo: Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral, Pear Pizzazz and Petal Pink.  

This card is off in the mail today with a gift.  I hope the recipient enjoys the colour scheme.  

Happy stamping,
