OSAT Blog Hop - Clean and Simple

Good morning...and happy Thursday!  I'm hopping this morning with the One Stamp at a Time Blog Hop...with a Clean and Simple theme!


So...I've had the idea for this card for awhile...and I knew as soon as I saw the new Birthday Friends stamp set that I wanted to use this darling little girl image.  Isn't she just as sweet as can be?   I also knew that I wanted her to be carrying this little floral bouquet behind her back...and at the last minute I stamped the image on Berry Burst Cardstock for the just pop of color that I was looking for.


And then...because she is carrying flowers...I thought this quick and easy floral wrap would be the perfect way to complete my project.  I simply cut a 9"x 9" square of Fresh Florals DSP (in Berry Burst) and shaped it into a fun cone...perfect for the fresh lilacs I cut from our bushes in the side yard. 


I cut a small tag in Basic Black, added a stamped and die cut bouquet to match the one carried by the little girl on the card and attached it to the floral wrap's Berry Burst woven ribbon.  Clean and simple...and lovely to boot! 


And now...click on over to see what my crafty friend Kelly has for you!  It's sure to be something wonderful!

#TGIF106 - Color Challenge

Good morning...and happy Friday!  I'm back...with something lovely for this week's TGIF Challenge!
http://tgifchallenges.blogspot.com/

It's #TGIF106...and it's a color challenge!

http://tgifchallenges.blogspot.com/2017/05/tgifc106-color-challenge-crushed-curry.html

Click the image above to go to the TGIF Challenges blog for all the details.  You'll be able to see what the TGIF designers have shared to inspire you...and you'll also be able to see what other challengers have created, too!  But first...here's my color challenge project!


So...I had a few things in mind when I set out to create this card.  Of course I wanted to use the  #TGIF106 color challenges...Crushed Curry, Flirty Flamingo and Emerald Envy.  Then...when I looked at my National Day Calendar (nationaldaycalendar.com) I noticed that in addition to May 4th being National Star Wars Day it is also Bird Day...hence my choice to use the Best Birds Stamp Set (and coordinating Birds and Blooms Thinlits Dies).  And finally...I wanted to use the GORGEOUS  Eastern Medallions Thinlits Dies in a very different way.  Seriously...I've seen so many AMAZING projects using these dies and their coordinating Eastern Beauty stamp set...and I've loved them.  But here...for my something different...I added a hint of color to a simple white die cut and paired it with the black and white bird and tiny colored flowers.  I kind of like it!

How will YOU be inspired by this week's color challenge?  You'll find the link to add your own project at the #TGIF106 Challenge page HERE.  I can't wait to see what you create! 

As always...
