Hi!
For me one of the biggest 'perks' of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is the wonderful people you meet - both customers and fellow demonstrators. When you join you instantly become a part of a bigger group that inspires and supports you. One of those ways is by hosting creative challenges, and today's card was made for an Art With Heart creative challenge. Claire Daly designed a gorgeous sketch to inspire us to create. Here's my card.
Most of the layers on the card are made from the new Painted Blooms DSP. I deliberately cut the main Soft Sky layer to include a subtle swirl in the top left corner. I knew that part wouldn't be covered by other layers and it adds a little something to the 'white space'.
The sentiment was made from two different stamps in the Crazy About You stamp set. I purchased the photopolymer version as it allows for precise stamping. I also purchased the coordinating Hello You Thinlits, but the 'you' diecut would have overwhelmed this card, so I used the 'you' stamp instead.
I love this sentiment - it's great for a Thinking Of You card to be sent to a special friend.
Bye for now,
Tina

Irresistibly Painted Petals
Hi!
Happy Australia Day!
Today I have a card for you that I made as a sample for one of my January classes. I made it to show off the new Irresistibly Yours DSP that is one of the freebies you can choose during Sale-A-Bration.
We used a piece of the floral Irresistibly Yours DSP and sponged it with Soft Sky ink. The DSP has the patterns pre-embossed, so all you need to do is add some colour for spectacular results.
The flowers from Painted Petals were stamped in Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi (stamped off once first). Some of my ladies found it a little tricky to line up the flowers with the stems. I think it just takes a little practice.
The flowers look fabulous again on the inside.
Well, it's back to school again tomorrow! Hopefully I can keep up the blogging while we get back into the school routine, but if I drop off for a while you know why!
Bye for now,
Tina
