Saying Goodbye to Wisteria Wonder

Hi!

Wisteria Wonder is one of the colours that has been cut from the range of Stampin' Up! colours starting next month. It's been a purple I've liked using, as it's a lovely, soft colour. Having said this, I'm pretty excited about the new purples, as are the purple lovers that have been begging for a 'true' purple for many years!

The first card today is a CASE of a tag in the soon to be finished Annual Catalogue. You can see it on page 76, smack bang in the centre of the page. It's the tag on the Foil frenzy gift box.

I kept the tag essentially the same. I had to use an oval as the base as I didn't own the Lots Of Labels Framelits set at the time that I made this card.  I also used the flowers and leaves from Happy Birthday Gorgeous. They frame the Happy Birthday diecut so well!

Hmm, thinking back, I don't use the flowers in this set anywhere as much as I should!

My second card pairs Wisteria Wonder with the Delightful Daisy DSP and the Cat punch. I haven't used the punch much, but it has carried over to the new Annual Catalogue, so I've got another yer at least to remedy that!

Teeny Tiny Sentiments is another retiring set that I didn't use much, but it was very handy to have on hand. It contains a HUGE range of sentiments that cover nearly every occasion you could think of, and because they are so small you can fit them anywhere on a card.

I gave this card to my Mother-In-Law for Mother's Day. She loves cats, so it was very fitting for her.

Bye for now,

JAI #401: Just Add A Sketch

Hi!


Welcome to another week of Just Add Ink challenges. This week it's a sketch challenge, designed by little old me! I'm usually a 'nope, no way' person when it comes to tilted panels, so I designed this sketch to push myself out of my comfort zone a little.


How's that for tricky - not one, but TWO tilted panels. Oh dear!

LOL, it's not really tricky at all!

My Petal Garden DSP stack has been looking a bit neglected, so I decided to get it out to have a bit of a play with this card. I love soft flowers juxtaposed against the lines of dots in the paper.

The Everyday Label punch, which I used to crop my sentiment, carried over from the previous Holiday Catalogue. I hope it carries over to the upcoming Annual Catalogue, as I haven't used it nearly enough yet.

I love using little strips of left over DSP on the inside of my cards. There always seems to be little strips left over, and it's a great way to use them up.

You can see what the rest of the team have created over at the Just Add Ink blog, where you can also link up your card fr the challenge. I can't wait to see what you can do with my sketch.

Bye for now,

Tina
