I stamped the different ballon images with some chalk inks and then fussy cut them out. I inked the banners with markers and curved them a little on my stamping block before stamping them onto the paper. The panels were cut with the SugarPea Designs Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle dies.

SugarPea Designs Mix It Up Challenge #10



Happy Wednesday!!!! Can you believe it is August already???? That means it is time to start a new month of challenges here at 



As you can see....I was inspired by both the rainbow colors and that stack of colorful glasses!


As soon as I saw the photo , I immediately thought of this fun SugarPea Designs stamp set:


 Hashtag Hipsters 



 I stamped and masked the glasses over and over with different colors of inks. (My Misti tool was great for this!) And then covered each one with Glossy Accents

The sentiment comes from the new SugarPea Designs stamp:

Celebrate All the Things:



 I stamped the sentiment onto a balloon that was die cut with the fun new SugarCuts:


 Birthday Journal Card



 This turned out to be a fun, cheerful card!








I hope you have been inspired to play with us this month!

Paper Sweeties August 2016 Inspiration Challenge

Hello my stampy friends!
It's time for a new 





PLUS

It is our FOURTH Birthday!!!!


To celebrate, Debbie is giving away a 
$100 gift card to her 
Paper Sweeties Shop!!! WOW!!!
So we hope you will join this month as we celebrate!

Here is the sweet inspiration photo:


 I love all the sweet flowers and macaroons in the photo, but I was mostly inspired by the pink, aqua and green colors. 
I created a birthday card!



I started the card by sponging Peeled Paint, Tumbled Glass and Picked Raspberry Distress inks through a circle stencil onto white card stock. I lightly brushed some water across the stenciled area to get a watercolor effect. Next I added lots of splatters.



I stamped the banner with the Birthday Banners stamp set and the gift boxes from the Let's Party stamp set with black Archival ink onto some white water color paper. The banners and gift boxes were colored with Zig Color Brush markers.  For lots of fun texture, I added Glossy AccentsLiquid Pearl drops and Wink of Stella Glitter pens to the images.




We hope you will join us this month here at PAPER SWEETIES
You could be the lucky winner of a
$100 gift card to the Paper Sweeties Shoppe!
