The Card Concept Challenge - Spring Garden

Hello and welcome to another challenge with The Card Concept. Here's our inspiration pic to get your creative juices flowing:


My card has a vintage vibe with lots of layers and was inspired by the overall garden theme. I really wanted to create a soft, almost ethereal ambience, so have featured rose gold embossing with pastel tones of pink, green and linen.




Materials used:
  • stamps - Floral Outlines, Field Notes, Label Frames (all Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous), Butterfly Brilliance (SU)
  • card - watercolour, very vanilla
  • distress inks - tattered rose, antique linen, shabby shutters, brushed corduroy
  • other - Dimensionals, MISTI, aquapainter, heat tool, rose gold embossing powder, embossing buddy, stitched rectangle die, Big Shot, craft foam

Be sure to check out the gorgeous cards my fellow DT members have made to inspire you over on The Card Concept blog. As always, we'd love you to join us by taking part in the challenge.

Thanks for dropping by.

Cheers
Kerry

JAI#588 - Colour Challenge

Hi everyone, it's time for a colour challenge with Just Add Ink and this time we're using some of SU's 2020-2022 in-colours. 

I went for a vintage look and cracked open two Tim Holtz stamp sets I've had for some time but in all the busyness of packing and moving, hadn't gotten around to using. The colours lend themselves so well to a floral theme and I love the pop of colour the magenta madness provides! Bright pinks aren't usually my thing, lol, but here it's just perfect.


Materials used:
  • stamps - Floral Outlines, Observations, Entomology, Field Notes (all Tim Holtz) 
  • card - watercolour, brushed gold, early espresso
  • distress oxide inks - antique linen, vintage photo, frayed burlap
  • other - MISTI, gold embossing powder, embossing buddy, aqua painter, stitched rectangle die, Big Shot Switch, craft foam, sponge dauber, vintage photo archival ink, heat tool 
  • inspired by an Emma Williams creation

More samples await you on the Just Add Ink blog and hopefully you'll see something to inspire you to sit and create - and, of course, if you do we'd love to see it in our gallery.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
Kerry
