Hello and happy TGIF!

Couldn't resist playing this weeks Color Throwdown #627 .....

Here is this weeks color combo - Pale Pink, Blue and Gray....

These colors were definitely talking to me...I chose PTI - Pale Peony & Weathervane, plus the SU - Midnight Muse. 

The Stamp Sets for the florals are PTI - Floral Sketches and Simon Says - Even More Spring Flowers. The big "Thank You" is from The Stamp Market - Thank you Layering Die and it was layered with the PTI - Weathervane CS. The smaller sentiment below is from the PTI - Sentiment Staples: Thank You Mini Set that was also inked in SU - Midnight Muse.  At last I added the Clear Sequins.

Thank you for stopping by :) !!! Wishing you a fabulous weekend! ~SL~

 Hello and happy Thursday!

We have another beautiful Inspired By Challenge for you to play along ....

My inspiration came from the bird, the blossoms, the colors and the background. 

As soon as I saw this image I knew I wanted to use the PTI - Spring Woods Set along with the matching dies. Instead of using ink I used my SU Markers to achieve a more water colored look on the bird and blossom image. The sentiment is from the same set. The background splash is from the retired SU - Gorgeous Grunge Set. I inked in SU Crumb Cake and at last I added the small Silver Pearls.

Hope you'll have a chance to play along with us? 

Thank you so much for stopping by....wishing you a wonderful day! ~SL~

Happy Monday!

Stopping by with a new card for this weeks Inspired by Challenge #IB158 ....

I love the sketch that is part of this weeks challenge....

My inspiration came from the hearts, the CAS design and the bold sentiment. 

I couldn't help myself inking up a retired SU Set called I (Heart) Hearts. I have this set for years and barely used it..so I was totally happy to show it off today :) !!! My colors are from PTI - Hibiscus Burst, Pure Poppy and Classic Kraft. The sentiment is from the PTI - Penned Elegance. At last I added some Silver Pearls.

Swing by the Inspired By Challenge Blog to see how people are inspired by this weeks fun challenge! Looking forward to seeing your ideas! 

Wishing you a fabulous week and I'll see you on Thursday for a new challenge :) !!! ~SL~

Hello and happy Thursday!

It's time for a new Inspired By Challenge....

My card was inspired by the hearts, the background, the sentiment and the colors.

The center images were created with the SU - Heart Dies. I added the PTI - Notched Hearts Banner Die in the background along with a Doily. The White CS was emboss with the Cuttlebug Hearts Embossing Folder. At last I added the sentiment and the small Silver Pearls.

Thank you for stopping by today! Wishing you a fabulous day and I'm looking forward to seeing your creations! ~SL~

Happy 2021!!!

What a crazy year it has already been...between a leak from the upstairs bathroom into our laundry room downstairs, a few birthdays, a wedding, a snow storm ⛄❆ in ETX, plus our favorite College Football Team the Crimson Tide won their Championship Game 🏈.... it's been an emotional roller coaster ride for sure...and we are only 2 weeks into this year!!!

The next excitement I'm able to share with you is, that I was asked to be part of the INSPIRED BY Challenge Team :) !!! I'm beyond thrilled to be joining this super talented team!!! 

My inspiration came from the colors of this inspiration photo...for this card I used the beautiful Berry Branch Stencil from The Greetery. The sentiment is from the Opposites Attract Set along with the matching die...also from The Greetery.

Hope you'll have a chance to play along!?! Looking forward to seeing your ideas! 

Wishing you a wonderful day! ~SL~
