Out of the Box Colors


Hi everyone....hope your week is going well! Mine is much better since Tuesday! My teenage grandson was discharged from the hospital, finally...he was admitted last Saturday with pneumonia! I was so worried about him...he was a very sick boy....but they got him on the road to recovery and he was so happy to get home, and my daughter too. She had stayed around the clock even while he was in ICU, so she was exhausted to say the least.
My card today is for the sketch challenge at SCS. You can read about it HERE . It was a fun sketch to work with, I was just unsure about these colors together; but I have quite a bit of the green that you see and I thought I would try it with the yellow. I liked it once I got it together :)
Here is the recipe:
Cardstock: So Saffron, Glorious Green, GPW
Stamps: Vintage Vogue, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Glorious Green, Orchid Opulence
Accessories: Cuttlebug, Swiss Dots & D'vine Swirls embossing folders; classic square Nesties; adhesive pearls, foam dimensionals
Thanks so much for your continued support by commenting on my work....it means so much to me and I treasure every comment!

Sponged Sky


I guess today is my CASEing day, lol! This is another card that I've CASEd from STAMPUNSTRESS . I loved this card and just had to try my hand at sponging the sky, which I had never attempted before, as well as masking the moon. I didn't do a very good job on the moon (didn't have any post it notes, lol) but it is what it is, as they say! Anyway, I am pleased with the overall outcome...it was a lot of fun!
Here are the specs:
Cardstock: GPW
Stamps: Inkadinkadoo, Echoes of Kindness, sentiment unknown
Ink: Bashful Blue, Brilliant Blue, Night of Navy, Versafine Black Onyx, Memento London Fog
Accessories: CB; classic oval Nesties; Night of Navy grosgrain ribbon
Thanks for checking in....see you later!
