Dies

Tuesday with Tara {take 435} Sunshine & Rainbows

Happy Tuesday,

I’ve been wanting to try my hand at making a rainbow since I got my hands on the MFT Oblong STAX dies and St. Patrick’s Day seems like a perfect time to make a rainbow card… even if my ‘pot of gold’ happens to be some yellow flowers & a bunch of bling!

I arranged dies (skipping a size between each) on a Magnetic Sizzix Platform, and cut layers in three colors which I had inked up with Distress Ink blends.  I paired it with a sentiment by Crafter’s Companion– it’s the sunshine die paired with a variety of sentiments to mix & match with it.  (It may not be available anymore, but it was part of their Sunflower collection if you find it in stock somewhere!).  I had some yellow flowers sitting on my desk, so they seemed like a really fun fit, together with a bunch of bling!

I added some heart shaped “clouds” to the other edge of the rainbow for a soft finish… and mounted everything on a stitched rectangle layer for a white on white card base!

I hope it makes you smile!

Inky hugs,

Tara

Tuesday with Tara {take 434} Celebrate You!

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

Tuesday with Tara {take 433} Each Day’s Gifts

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
