When I saw the current Fusion Card Challenge, I thought about what round objects I had in my creative stash.
I decided to combine a Gel Press Print with round elements and the beautiful Aunt Yo's Moons stickers from {a vintage girl} & her daughter (remember, the discount code is GNOMIES for 20% off your order).
I layered them onto my background using the images from the photo as my inspiration.
And the perfect sentiment from Flora & Fauna Letterboard Set.
When I saw the Pitcher Bouquet at Poppies Fusion Card Challenge, it reminded me of the Farmhouse Containers Stickers from {a vintage girl} & her daughter ... remember my discount code SMILYNSTEF gets you 15% off your order at the Sticker Store.
I paired one of the metal farmhouse container stickers that reminded me of the image with a flower sticker from the Pink Steampunk Stickers.
I then added two of the floral cameras from the Vintage Cameras Sticker Set.
I used the Fusion Card Sketch and covered my card base with coordinating floral paper from Pebbles Lovely Moments.
The sentiment is from the Sticker Set Typewriter Phrases.
{a Vintage Girl} & her daughter have so many different gnome stickers to choose from.
Today I'm creating with the fun St. Patrick's Gnomes ... remember discount code SMILYNSTEF gets you 15% off your sticker purchase.
The first card takes its inspiration & layout from the current Fusion Card Challenge.
I used a pre-watercolored card base from my stash which worked perfectly with the Sketch. I added lots of fun St. Patrick's Gnomies to my oval piece and finished with another sticker from {a vintage girl} & her daughter's Typewriter Phrases.
I'm also linking-up at the Simon Says Stamp A Bit O' Green Challenge.
My next Gnomie card uses this week's Mojo Monday Sketch (I love how Julee gives you the measurements if you want to match it exactly).
I used some designer paper for my strips and more colors for the circles, punching a 4 leafed clover from one of the designs to pair with my Gnomes & Rainbows.
I took my cardmaking inspiration from the Inspired by Lucky Rainbow Challenge. I added another sentiment from the Typewriter Sentiments Sticker Set.
I'm also joining the Simon Says Stamp Add Some Green Challenge.
Hope you had some Gnomie Fun with me today & you go use that discount code SMILYNSTEF for some fun stickers (FYI ... they have a whole new line of Planner Goodies if you're a Planner Person).
Did you see the adorable little Unicorn Princess at the Fusion Card Challenge?
She reminded me of my Unicorns at Play stickers from {a vintage girl} & her daughter. Remember, discount code SMILYNSTEF gets you 15% off your order.
I chose the cute little pink one to feature on my card. I paired it with some Vickie Boutin designer paper and used one of my Gel Press prints for the pennant design in the sketch.
Our Cable decided to die at our house yesterday, and we can't get a technician until Thursday afternoon, so for the first time since the Derecho I'll be venturing out in the snowy landscape to drive to work ... so why not celebrate with a CAS Snowy design.
I started with inspiration from The Paper Players.
I'm also joining the Uniko Studio Anything Goes Challenge by using their wonderful Big & Bold Snow Stamps Set & Coordinating Dies. I die cut the Big Snow from White & Navy cardstock and stamped the other snowflake images from the set in light grey to coordinate with my strips of designer paper before finishing with the Navy Sentiment.
I'm also calling this a variation on the Fusion Card Challenge Sketch.
The Code Word at Addicted to CAS is also Snow.
Always fun to join Amy T for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Fall/Winter Blog Hop.
I started with the Coffee To Go Die from Impression Obsession.
Then I took my inspiration from the Fusion Card Challenge Autumn Challenge (with a slight twist on the sketch since I wanted my strip of leaf paper to point upwards). I added a tiny Doodlebug Heart sticker and a punch heart to decorate my coffee cup.
I love the colors from the Die Cut With a View Fall Gathering papers. I'm also joining the Hot Drinks for Cold Night's Challenge at Shopping our Stash.
When I saw the new Fusion Card Challenge, I thought it would be fun to play with the sketch and some Funky Cactuses Stickers from A Vintage Girl & her Daughter ... remember if you use my discount code SMILYNSTEF in the store, you'll get 15% off your order.
I started with the Mariachi Cactus and paired him with a sentiment from Fiesta Quotes. I used scraps of cardstock for the sketch to coordinate with my Cactus Sticker.
It really makes me want a taco.
While I had the paper out, I went ahead and made a second one with the Wrestler Funky Cactus, which reminded me of my brother and how much he loved watching Wrestling when he was a kid.
I love those red & gold flames. I paired it with another sentiment from Fiesta Quotes.
Here's the entire Funky Cactuses sticker sheet ... so many possibilities.
I love the current Fusion Card Challenge because I have always had a love affair with Inchies.
I went looking for ideas to fill my inches, and immediately settled on a package of Simple Stories Merry & Bright Puffy Stickers. I used my 1 1/4" punch for my square base from kraft cardstock.
It was so fun putting it all together. I matted it on red and then used a darker kraft cardstock base. I moved my sentiment up one row because that's where it fit with my layout. My guess is I might do another one before the challenge is over ... so much fun.
When I saw the current Fusion Card Challenge, I knew I wanted to play with Ink Sprays.
I used a variety of sprays on watercolor paper in purples, pinks and blues. I couldn't quickly find a flourish in my stamps, so instead I stamped Hero Arts Three Ferns ... since it is a woodblock stamp, I had to go with the look of a single inking on the textured watercolor paper.
I added a wrap of blue ribbon and finished with one of my Pink Lyric Stickers which was inspired by the quote in the Inspiration photo.
Even though I've already mailed the Easter cards I've made (I like to get them there early, so people have a bit of time prior to the holiday to enjoy or display them), I couldn't resist making another for the Impression Obsession Easter Fun! Challenge.
I die cut my three little Impression Obsession Bunnies from the cardstock colors from the Just Add Ink Challenge ... I added pearl bunny tails and tiny black gem eyes.
The layout and inspiration are from the current Fusion Card Challenge ... the adorable picture also inspired the bit of polka dot washi banner along the top.
I finished with a sticker sentiment (don't really have many Easter sentiment stamps in my stash).
