Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge #691: Round About Messages

Good morning,

Today I'm channeling the last of summer feelings for today's birthday card using the Paper Craft Crew sketch as inspiration.

This card uses Daffodil Delight cardstock for the cardbase and then I took a piece of DSP from the Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper and matted it with Early Espresso cardstock.  Next, I cut a circle of Mossy Meadow cardstock and embossed it with the Stone & Vine 3D Embossing folder.  Next I added another pattern from the DSP to bring in the sunflowers that I love so much.

The greeting is from the Round About Messages stamp set and stamped the birthday circle on a piece of Basic White cardstock with Mossy Meadow ink before cutting out with a 2" Circle Punch and then used a 1 3/4" Circle Punch to cut out the center.

The "celebrate" is from the same stamp set and was stamped in Early Espresso ink on Basic White cardstock before attaching with dimensionals.  The final touches were a bow tied with Linen Thread and some Radient Gems.

This card is so fun and I love all the little elements that just work perfectly together.

30 Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 17

Good morning,

This weekend has been a bit of a change since our kiddo came into town at the last minute (which we love!) and then proceeded to hurt himself, haha!  It's great seeing him but bubblewrap may be under the Christmas tree.  Despite all this, I did find a little time to head to the studio to make a card for this months gratitude challenge.

The Trucking Along stamp set and coordinating punch is so awesome for fun, easy cards and when I saw the Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper I thought it would be fun to make a card with the truck heading out for a fall drive.

This card uses Cajun Craze cardstock for the cardbase and then Basic Black cardstock was used for a mat for the Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper.

Next I stamped the truck image on Basic White ink with Momento Black for the outline and then Balmy Blue makes the color of the truck.  I used Stampin' Blends to color in the tires, bumbers, etc.  Once the truck was cut out with the Trucking Along Builder Punch it was attached to the cardfront with dimensionals.

The greeting for this card is from the So Sincere stamp set and was stamped in Momento Basic Black directly on the DSP.  The final touch was some dots from the Faux Glass Dots.

This card is definitely giving me fall vibes and loving this sentiment which I've never used before.

Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge #PCC528: Trucking Along

Good morning,

It's July and we can't end the month with celebrating a little Christmas in July.  For this weeks Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge I decided to use some of the Online Exclusive products to make this fun Christmas card, while taking a little liberty with the sketch due to the stamps used and their shape, haha!

I started with Crumb Cake cardstock for the cardbase and then embossed a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock with the Big Shot and Painted Texture 3D Embossing folder.

Next I used the One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper and cut strips for a wintery background.

The stamp set used was included in the Trucking Along bundle (the stamp set is still available while the coordinating punch is currently out of stock but will be available in October), I just love this little "red" truck.  I stamped the truck on Basic White cardstock and stamped the body of the truck in Real Red ink.  I used Stampin' Blends to color in the tires and bumper before punching out the truck with the coordinating punch.  The greeting is from the same stamp set, stamped in Real Red ink on Crumb Cake cardstock before being fussy cut out and attached with dimensionals.

To finish off the card I tied a double bow using the 2022-2024 In Color Baker's Twine (it isn't exactly the same color but it coordinates with the blue tones in the DSP.

I had so much fun making this card and I see lots of these little trucks in my future crafting!  Please check out the other cards the design team is sharing and we would love for you to play along with us and share what you create using this sketch as inspiration.
