SR #158 Picture Inspiration

This week at Stampin Royalty, we have a picture for your inspiration. So look at the picture, and take any of the items from that picture and create a card. I have taken the colours as my inspiration, using Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip, whisper White and Bashful Blue. The stamp set I have used in an old one (sorry), but it is a great one for colouring with. Check out what the other Designers over at Stampin Royalty have come up with.

The Nicest Things

So here is my card I finished off this morning for the create-with-connie-and-mary ccmc203-sketch-challenge.html using the sketch above. Wow, this sketch, as you would say, really was a challenge. So after much deliberation, this is the card I came up with. The colours I have used are Concord Crush, Lovely Lavender and whisper white. I also used the stamp set, The nicest things, Four Frames and the sentiment from Occasions Alphabet.

Thankful

This is the card I made using the Pals Paper Arts Colour Challenge and the sketch I used is from Deconstructing Jen -sketch 46

The image I used is  one from the Greeting Farm

All papers are from Stampin Up

The leaf punch is one of Martha Stewart's punches

The PPA Colour Challenge and DYSU Challenge

Well this card was FUN. Lots of Copic practise with the Digital Stamp from Wee Stamps, lots of flower making with the SU Scallop circle punch and lots of inking (Sponging) around the edges of all the card.

Here is this closer image of the coloured image. She is gorgeous. Beautiful stamp. So I made this card for a few challenges including:

Pals Paper Arts Colour Challenge

Do You Stack Up - Things with Wings

The Paper Players challenge 81

Well this card didn't start out as a challenge card, I just really love the tiddly inks digital stamp, so she had to go on a card. As it turns out, the Paper Players are having a challenge using flowers and as I added some cute little flowers it all worked out fine and dandy. Here is a closer image of the flowers. (Handmade of course).

You can find the links to the digital stamp and the challenge on my side bar.

Well I almost forgot. This card is based on the sketch from Deconstructing Jen this week. I cant believe that I forgot that. Sorry.

Here is another card for the girls that I have made (just in case my son is invited to another girls birthday). It’s always handy to have a stock pile ready to go. These downloads are from Kenny K. He has awesome digital images, especially for teenagers. I coloured the stamp in using photoshop 9 and all the cardstock and designer papers is from Stampin Up. I have taken a closer photo of the image so you can see it better.

One for the Girls

My son was attending a girls 16th birthday party on the weekend and I, not only had to provide him with a ‘customary’ birthday card, but a GIRL card. You can probably tell from my blog that I am a mother to two boys. Not much room really for any girlie stuff in this household, it’s all planes, trains and automobiles. Here is the card I came up with, with a little help from Kenny K Digital Stamps.

So the report that came back, was that Nathan got a great big hug and was told that his mum is awesome. I was really happy with that, and so was Nathan.

Birthday Princess

Following the 'Side Step' card I made using the unfrogettable stamp set, I thought I had better make a card using a girlie set. This one I thought was just perfect. One of my ladies had requested a card that she can CASE for her granddaughters 10th birthday. I am hoping that she will like this one.

The tutorial for this style of card can be found under the heading tutorials. Although I did alter the width of the side step so I could fit the image of the princess in. Have fun.
