Lovely Lipstick Envelope Box...

What is your favorite stamp set?!  One of my very favorite stamp sets may be surprising.  It is the "Wood Words" stamp set.  It has a little of everything...fun greetings, images that can be used for any occasion, background, focal point stamps, etc.  So I seem to grab for this stamp set a lot and just LOVE it!  The project I'm sharing today--I used the stamps for a quick, fun & simple box...

Colors: Lovely Lipstick, Granny Apple Green, Pool Party

Cardstock/Papers:  Granny Apple Green, Whisper White, Pool Party, Broadway Bound Specialty Designer Series Paper

Stamps: Wood Words

Tools: Big Shot, Stitched Shapes Framelits, Envelope Punch Board

This box was actually made with the Envelope Punch Board.  It is a simple box to make...just a few additional score lines from making an envelope and you have this box!

So fun, huh?!  The belly band just slides off so the recipient can open it up easily!

I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this floral image!  I have used it as a background a lot, but here it became the focal point!

So what do you think?!  What stamp set do you love that may be surprising to others?!  Oh!  And here is a pic of all the images in this stamp set, in case you aren't familiar with it.

TGIF Challenge 167: All About Color!!!

I have to admit, I LOVE a good Color Challenge.  I am all about color, so it's fun to try new combos that you maybe wouldn't normally put together.  This weeks' TGIF Challenge is a fun and summery color combo that I know you will love!!!  First, here is the card I made for the challenge:

 

Colors: Whisper White, Lemon Lime Twist, Pineapple Punch, Grapefruit Grove

Cardstock/Papers:  Lemon Lime Twist, Shimmery White, Vellum Cardstock, Watercolor Paper, Nature's Poem Designer Series Paper

Stamps: Follow Your Dreams

Tools: Big Shot, Chase Your Dreams Framelits, Starburst Punch, Aqua Painter

Accessories: Iridescent Sequin Assortment

And here is the official color challenge graphic:

HOW MUCH FUN ARE THESE COLORS??!?!?!?!?   (I did add the Night of Navy spritz splatter, FYI.)

You can't fully see in the photo, but the "dream" is cut from Shimmery White cardstock.  So it shimmers in real life!  😍

What do you think about the watercoloring?  To get this colorful wash, I spritzed the Watercolor Paper with water first then just dropped a drop of Pineapple Punch ink from the reinker bottle right onto the paper.  Smear that around with an Aqua Painter, then repeat with the Grapefruit Grove color.  So much fun and gets you a pretty vibrant color...

All in all, I kinda want to make this card with lots of different stamp sets and die-cuts.  What do you think?!  I hope you enjoy!  Now it's your turn!  Head on over to the TGIF Challenge Blog to play along!  I can't wait to see what you make!!!

Isn't it so much fun!  And I just tied it onto a 6x8 cello bag.  Makes a perfectly cute and fun treat holder!!  And can we also talk about how FABULOUS the new Gray Granite color is...oh man!!! Major swooning!!!  😍😍😍

I also love the little paper ribbon behind the greeting.  I just snipped both ends of a strip of Designer Paper into banner ends.  Then folded it into ribbon shape.  So fun! 

The new Detailed Trio Punch is so fun also!  I used all three punches for this one tag...it rounds corners, punches that fun detailed image on the side, and then also punched the middle piece for ribbon.  💓

I hope you enjoy this fun project!  Let me know if you have any questions!

Call Me Clover Meets Tropical Chic...

Have another fun In Color project for you! This time, I wanted to share a card I made with the fun Call Me Clover!!  What do you think about this green?!  Personally...I pretty much love it! 😀 I also am using my FAVORITE stamp set: "Tropical Chic".  What do you think about these two together?!

Colors: Whisper White, Call Me Clover, Soft Sea Foam, Calypso Coral

Cardstock/Papers:  Call Me Clover (card base), Whisper White, In Color 2018-2020 6"x6" Designer Series Paper

Stamps: Tropical Chic

Accessories: Whisper White Embossing Powder, Whisper White Baker's Twine, Iridescent Sequin Assortment, 2018-2020 In Color Mini Binder Clips

I love the simplicity of this layout.  I will use this one a lot.  I actually got the idea for the layout from a card that a Stampin' Up! concept artist made.  It is on the Stampin' Up! Pinterest Color board.  You can check out that card HERE.  So fun! And what I always tell people...you don't have to "start from scratch" with your projects.  There is SOOOOO much inspiration out there--use it!  😁

Here are a few more photos of this card...

 

 

What do you think?!  That splash of sequins on there is one of my fave elements.  Kinda obsessed with splatters of sequins.  Haha. Do you use them?!  

And here is just one more shot of this fun card...

You could really use this card for any occasion...that greeting could be swapped out for anything!  So use this as your inspiration today--if you need some--and go create!  💓  It does a soul some good.

Thanks for visiting!  Please let me know if you have any questions or need help with anything!  Hope you enjoy this card!

I will share more of the notebook but let me make sure to show you the challenge's inspirational photo first...

Clover Sea of Textures Gable Box...

Allow me to introduce you (or help you get better acquainted) to another NEW In Color!  This one is called "Call Me Clover." It's a super fun & bright green...but this project I actually toned it down a little...

Colors: Whisper White, Call Me Clover, Flirty Flamingo, Soft Sea Foam, Crumb Cake

Cardstock/Papers:  Whisper White, Call Me Clover, Crumb Cake, Flirty Flamingo

Stamps: Sea of Textures

Tools: Big Shot, Under the Sea Framelits

Accessories: Linen Thread, Basic Adhesive-Backed Sequins, Lustrous White Mini Gable Boxes

What do you think about this bundle?!  Have you used it yet?!  In case you were wondering my opinion...it's FANTASTIC!  It is the "Sea of Textures" stamp set & the "Under the Sea" framelits.  😍😍😍  Now I love the ocean and all things involved with that--so it's kinda obvious that I would like it.  HOWEVER...in real life...I would hate to see an octopus.  I think those sucker arms are completely disgusting.  But on this box...I'm in love.  Hee.  But look how cute he is...

If you are wonder how I colored him...I just inked him in Soft Sea Foam first.  Then took a little sponge dauber, dipped it into the Call Me Clover ink pad, an pounced lightly on parts of the octopus.  I love how he turned out! 

Also...have you noticed that the NEW Stampin' Up! catalog not only has the Silver Mini Gable Boxes, but there is also a new WHITE one!  And it's a SHIMMERY white!  It's gorgeous.  Hard to photograph but truly stunning in real life. 

I just love all the layers of texture.  Makes my heart happy. 

Hope you enjoy this project!  Please let me know if you have any questions!
