blue bonnets Archives - Inkspired Treasures

It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. This week we have a pretty color combination!

TEXTURED FLORAL

I really haven’t used my Textured Floral stamps very much and it is such a pretty set! For this challenge, I thought to create the look of Blue Bonnets…one day I’ll get to Texas to see the fields of them blooming!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Starry Sky cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
Two 3/4 x 5-1/4 strips of Bright & Beautiful DSP were added to the sides.
On a 2-1/2 x 5-1/4 piece of Basic White, the leaves were first stamped with Lemon Lolly Ink and then Parakeet Party Ink stamped slightly off for a shadow effect. The stems were stamped with Parakeet Party Ink and the blossoms with Starry Sky Ink.
A 1-3/8 x 2-1/2 piece of Lemon Lolly cardstock was stamped with the Textured Floral greeting in Starry Sky Ink and added to the top of the Basic White piece.
The Basic White panel was added to a 2-3/4 x 5-1/4 layer of Lemon Lolly cardstock and then to the center of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
A trio of Tinsel Gems 4 pack were added to the front.

Such an EASY card to create using this set! Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary

It’s Saturday and time for another Create with Connie and Mary Design Team Blog Hop! This month we’ll be featuring the retiring In Colors…I love all of them, don’t you? SOOOO sad to see them go! Make sure you stock up now! First in the lineup is Lost Lagoon! My mind immediately thought of the Helping Me Grow stamp set and the pretty flowers in it…I’m thinking these are bluebonnets? Some day I’d like to be in Texas when the fields of these are blooming!

Here are the details:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Lost Lagoon, folded in half.
On the 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White, the flowers and 25 cent images were stamped towards the left side with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. They were watercolored with Lost Lagoon and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Write Markers and an AquaPainter.
A strip of In Color Washi Tape was added to the right side.
The label and greeting were stamped with Tuxedo Black Ink on Lost Lagoon cardstock and cut with the Rose Wonder Label Framelit, then popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
A 3″ strip of Silver 1/8″ Ribbon was folded in half and tucked under the label. A trio of Rhinestones were also added to the bottom of the label.
