Happy Tuesday!

I wanted to continue on the birthday theme we started with our current Birthday Bash Hop (go check it out if you haven’t already!) and see what I could do with the fun birthday washi tape I used on my hop card!  I wasn’t sure what I was going to do, until I saw my friend Nancy had joined a new sketch challenge design team.  She shared her first card on Monday and I used the inspiration from that sketch for the one you see today!

I definitely made some modifications, but I think it has similar vibes… I selected colors based on the washi tape, which has two shades of pink, orange & green.  I got a package from Scrap ‘N Stamp this week that had some Jewelz in it called “Key West” that feature similar colors so I decided to scatter them all over the card (I just skipped the blue ones)!  Let me tell ya, you never know how many gems come in a package until it breaks in transit and they are loose in the box.  haha!

Other elements on this card:

It’s a fun & simple, bling covered card that was fun to make with a variety of pieces I had on my work space 🙂 Hope it makes you smile!

Inky hugs,

Tara

Happy Tuesday!

Today’s card features the same Altenew stencil as I used on my card from last week, paired with stamped images by Altenew on this tag I made a while ago.  I had just been waiting for the right card background for it.

The stamped image & sentiment are from Altenew’s Bloom with Grace stamp set (plus I used the coordinating die for the image).  I had the tag background pre-inked & cut and added some details to it with a stencil and some strips of patterned paper to match my image (which I colored with Distress Watercolor Pencils).  Both the tag & pierced detail dies are by Paper Rose (though neither is in stock right now).  They have some really lovely designs for reasonable prices!

The Kraft card background features the same Altenew stencil I used on my card last week.  I love how the leaves have an abstract look on this card.

I added crinkle ribbon and a few sequins as the finishing touches!

Make a note on your calendar to join us back here on Friday (and all weekend long) for our March Inspiration Hop!  Can’t wait to see you there!

Inky hugs,

Tara

Tuesday with Tara {take 432} Wildflowers

You belong among the wildflowers.

Happy Tuesday!  Last week I got inky on my Crafty Live with the new Scorched Timber Distress, and I was determined to make something with one of my backgrounds for this week!   I kept things pretty simple and die cut one of the backgrounds (I believe this one features the two sprays together- Distress Spray Stain and Distress Oxide Spray) with my new Stitched Oblong STAX dies by MFT.  I love how the mix of the two sprays gives almost a dirty chalkboard effect.

I embossed a wildflowers sentiment (this is from an older Gina K set that it still in stock!) in white, then scattered a few mini brushstrokes flowers along one edge.  I’d pre-cut a variety of flowers in yellows & blue from some backgrounds so these were ready to go!

I added some subtle detail to the background with an Altenew stencil called “Leaf Bed” and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink, then decided to add it to a coordinating envelope as well!  I added a few sequins as a finishing touch…

I hope this brings a bit of sunshine to your day, especially if you’re experiencing the endless days of winter wherever you are…

Inky hugs,

Tara
