AAA Colourful Colorboard #25

Sometimes you just have some pre-stamped images and when a challenge comes along to use their colors you do it!

The base card is purple checked card stock with black card stock.

The main panel is watercolor paper, stamped with an image and sentiment from Newton’s Nook Designs “Newotn’s Birdhouse”.

This I water colored with water color pencils.

I used all the colors I saw but maybe you see more?

Can You Handle the Pressure? Challenge 2/2026

Personally I wanted to make some Easter cards for more elegant seniors and I think this fits the bill.

I used black and white card stocks.

Embossed some with an Anna Griffin embossing folder them smeared Distress Oxide ink on one side and layered it to the base card.

I die cut the sentiment using a die from Lawn Fawn.

Allsorts Challenge #843

A quick way to get a lovely card is to emboss white card stock with a 3D embossing folder , this one from Simon Says Stamp, and then smear Distress Oxide over the opposite side.

Layer it on more card stock.

Die cut a sentiment, this one by Jillian Vance Designs, back it with more card stock and trim around then foam tape it to the card front.

Two flamingos loving each other and “flamingling”!

Inky Paws Challenge Week #249

Decided to make my own patterned card stock instead of using the Newton’s Nook patterned card stocks this time.

But I did use Newton’s Nook Designs stencils “Tumbling Hearts” and “Mugs Stencil”.

I wanted to start clearing out my stencils but these from Newton’s Nook Designs are staying put!

I used two shades of kraft card stocks, cream and dark brown card stock as well.

I used Distress inks with the stencils.

The image and sentiment are from Newton’s Nook Designs “Slothy Coffee” and were colored with Copic markers and white gel pen.
