ColourQ Challenge #39

I'm still here!!  Getting into the swing of our summer schedule always takes a little time!

Speaking of summer - how about this great July 4th inspiration for this weeks challenge:

How could I not ink up my Star Prints set for this card (I took inspiration from the fabric and stamped over colored cardstock for a tone on tone effect):

Supplies

Stamps:  PTI (Star Prints, Polka Dot Basics, Background Basics: Text Style. Signature Greetings)

Punch:  Fiskars

ColourQ Challenge #28

So many directions this color combination could go:

I decided to make myself use the Good Neighbors set that has sat unused (at least the houses) since I received it:

This is one of those cards that has no plan at all and turns into something I really love.  I especially like the "home" part (Studio Calico alphabet stamps with a line hand drawn with the matching Stampin' Up marker) - I'm going to try that again for sure.

I don't usually provide details of stamp set names in my supply lists (because I'm too lazy to keep track).  But if anyone ever has a specific question on which stamps came from where just leave a comment and I'll be happy to answer.

Supplies
Stamps:  Stampin' Up, Studio Calico, Technique Tuesday, Papertrey Ink
Markers:  Stampin' Up

Curtain Call Color Challenge: Act 24

I feel like it's been too long since I've made a card with a kraft base - that's just not right!

So this weeks Curtain Call Color Challenge was the perfect chance to break out the kraft cardstock:

Here's my take:

I don't know if it's the coordinating dies or what - but that Papertrey set hasn't left my desk in weeks!

Supplies
Stamps:  Papertrey Ink
Dies:  Papertrey Ink
