Welcoming Window

IM187 – What’s Cookin’

By | 2 Comments

Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge!  This week we have a cabinet of pretty white milk glass!  I’d LOVE to have a cabinet of glassware like this in my home!

WHAT’S COOKIN’ and WELCOMING WINDOW

I used a combination of two die sets…Cookin’ and Window Flower Box Dies to work on my card…I thought it worked out pretty well!  Although the shelves aren’t a cabinet, it does work as inspiration!

Stampin’ Details:

    • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
    • The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Pool Party cardstock was embossed with the Painted Texture Embossing Folder.
    • A 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 piece of Bloom Where You Are Planted DSP was added to the right side.
    • Three shelves were cut from Bermuda Bay cardstock with the Window Flower Box Dies and added to the left with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
    • The pitcher and flower pot were cut from Basic White with the Window Flower Box Dies and added to the shelf.
    • The bowl, whisk and salt/pepper mills were cut from Basic White with the Cookin’ Dies and added to the shelves.
    • A succulent plant was hand-cut from the Bloom Where You Are Planted DSP and added to the flower pot.
    • Thank you from Welcoming Window Stamp Set was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White and cut with the Layering Circle Die.  It was layered on the scallop circle cut from Bermuda Bay.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
    • Some Simply Elegant Silver Cord was tied to the handle of the whisk in a bow.
    • A trio of Artistry Blooms Sequins were added to the background.

I’m pretty happy with how this turned out…never know if it will look like what you picture in your head!  OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!

CCMC656 – Welcoming Window

By | 2 Comments

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

 

WELCOMING WINDOW

I decided to use my brand new bundle, Welcoming Window on my card today!  I wish I had purchased it earlier…so easy to work with, although I was a little restricted because of the colors today!

 

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Old Olive cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • On top is a 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock, embossed with the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder.
  • Across the bottom is a 1 x 3-3/4 strip of Boho Indigo Designer Paper with a 1/4 x 3-3/4 strip of Bumblebee cardstock on top.
  • The greeting was stamped on a 1/2 x 3 piece of Basic White, cut the end at an angle and attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The window, shutters and shelf were cut from Night of Navy with the Window Flower Box Dies (LOVE the wood detail on them!).
  • A 1-1/2 x 2-1/2 piece of Bumblebee cardstock was added behind the window and trimmed.
  • The hinges were cut with the dies from Basic White cardstock and adhered on the shutters.
  • The small flower pot was stamped with Old Olive, the vine with stamped off Night of Navy, the pitcher with Bumblebee and the flowers with Old Olive and Bumblebee Inks.  All were cut with the dies.
  • A length of navy Well Suited Twine was tied in a bow and added to the pitcher with a Mini Glue Dot.
  • Some Wink of Stella was added to the flowers.

So happy with how this turned out!  Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this color combination over on Create with Connie and Mary!
