Tuesday with Tara {take 443} Every Little Thing

Sometimes we need a reminder that every little thing is going to be alright.  Today’s card is a spin off inspired by our current Inspiration Hop theme- Sunshine & Rainbows!  If you haven’t checked it out, it’s not too late to get your name in for a chance to win, and leave our creative team of ladies some love while you are at it!

I’ve used some of the extra cut out pieces from the larger rainbow on my other card to make a mini one here, pairing it with these fun cloud border dies (with stitched edges, like the oblong dies I used for my rainbow!) and letting this sweet Piglet stamp & sentiment by Impression Obsession steal the show!

I used some mini butterfly dies from my stash (these are by Memory Box) cut from scraps and mounted the card layers onto a sunny Marigold card base to keep things really bright!

Little details like using the body from a different piglet stamp to add stripes to some of the butterflies and cutting the middle layer of clouds from inky book print add some fun interest that keep this card from being totally crisp.  I love adding inky details to my cards!  Hope this one brings a smile to your day!

Inky hugs,

Tara

Happy Tuesday!

If you joined me live on Facebook last week (or caught the replay) you would have seen me color up this Funky bee near the end of our time together.  After all my watercolored bits were dry, I glued my layers together and added some Glossy Accents to his wings.  Since the watercolor paper I was working on was a lighter weight, it gives it a somewhat translucent effect.  It’s not what I intended… but it’s kinda perfect for wings!

I know it’s another grey card base, but I really thought the Silverleaf Willow by Prism Studio complemented the colors of my bee quite nicely.  I cut a wide border at the crease side of my card with one of the Puffy Cloud Border dies by Lawn Fawn.

Behind the bee, I used some book print which I spritzed with some Distress Oxide Spray in Salvaged Patina.  I then adhered that paper to white cardstock and attached it under the creased edge of my card.  I stamped a sentiment from one of my older Tim Holtz stamp sets (CMS086 if you’re wondering) to finish it off.

I’ll show you how I did that fold and assembled the card during this week’s Facebook Live, but our finished card will feature the dragonfly I colored :). Hope to see you there!

Inky hugs,

Tara

Happy Tuesday!

The dogwood trees are in glorious full bloom where I live, so I couldn’t resist making a card with the lovely Dogwood Triptych Die by Memory Box.  I die cut it in white and layered the pieces over a panel from the Vintage Letters 6×6 pad by Impression Obsession.  I wanted to keep my card soft and neutral, so colored it as realistic as I was able with Distress Watercolor Pencil Crayons, then pieced some green behind the open centers.  It was a bit brighter than I wanted, so I added some 3D dots with Glossy Accents and brushed a bit of copper (Mined Alloy) over them once they were dry.

I’ve used Lamb’s Ear cardstock as my card base- it’s a soft grayish green that was a lovely base for some white embossing of an older Tim Holtz sentiment, reminding us that Hope is Never Lost (kinda speaks like spring, to me!).  I added a pierced stitch border along each side of the paper panel for a bit of extra interest. (These are stitched borders by Paper Rose.)

I was going for a soft a simple card today, so I hope that comes through!

Inky hugs,

Tara
