Thursday ....

Somewhere I remember seeing a card very similar to this. I liked that the focal point was offset and going off the page. I did mine a bit differently, but the inspiration card is out there.

I inked up the main image (background for "thank you") using Island Indigo on the outside portion, and Pool Party in the center. I then spritzed it with a fine mist of water to make the two colors mix at the meet point. I love the effect!

I wanted to put a party hat on Mr. Bird but ran out of room.

I can see using this combination for tons of cards.

Supplies:

• Island Indigo CS, Primrose Petals CS, Whisper White CS
• Everything Eleanor Stamp Set, Papaya Collage Stamp Set, Perfectly Penned Stamp Set
• Island Indigo and Pool Party Markers, Wild Wasabi Ink Pad, Primrose Petals Ink Pad, Pumpkin Pie Ink Pad, StazOn Black Ink Pad
• Paper Snips, Spritzer, Ruffled Ribbon in Island Indigo, Dimensionals 

Friday...

I made two simple cards for today. I haven't used this DSP much. I am surprised because when I first saw it, I thought I would use it all the time. I think I might have an aversion to pink. Not really, but I can't figure out why I don't reach for this paper more. I made my self do two versions of this simple and versatile card. 

You may see more like it in the coming weeks.

I do like to have these cards on hand.

I used:

Paper: Very Vanilla CS, Soft Suede CS, Blushing Bride CS, Beau Chateau DSP

Stamps: Perfectly Penned

Ink: Soft Suede

Other: Square Lattice Embossing Folder, Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon, Big Shot, Glue Dots

Happy Friday Everyone!
