Thank you for joining us for this month’s Stamptastic Friends hop, where we are showcasing cards with a beautiful color combination. I’m so happy that these colors are some of my personal favorites!
Color combinations are a wonderful way to inspire your card making. I decided to use the Painted Lavender bundle, but I changed the lavender colors to Berry Burst. Flowers can come in any color you like, so don’t be afraid to experiment with different color schemes. I had a lot of fun creating with these vibrant colors. I was so immersed that I made two cards.
My first card features the gorgeous Perennial Lavender Designer Paper. The texture and delicate designs are a stunning background for the lovely Berry Burst flowers. Brass butterflies add a touch of whimsy to the card.
My second card highlights the three colors of the design. Deckled Rectangles create texture and soft edges to the cardstock. And of course, Wink of Stella adds sparkle and shine to both cards. I love how enjoyable card making can be when we have versatile supplies.

I decided to try the Freshly Made Sketches #431 card sketch today. I liked the different layout, so I got busy chopping paper.
After tossing out several pieces of cards and different designs I finally settled on using Country Club Suite.
The base of this card is Garden Green layered with the Country Club Designer Series paper. The Whisper White panel has some faint clouds in the sky stamped with Pool Party. Then it was embossed with the Subtle embossing folder. I love the slight texture this folder creates. The golfer is colored with Stampin’ Blends and die cut. The sentiment is popped up for some fun layering. A nice easy card for your favorite golfer.
Masculine cards tend to stump me, but I am incredibly happy with this one. Let’s hope I can find a golfer who would enjoy getting a birthday card.

Today I am sharing a bubbly fun birthday card with you. I started with the sketch from Paper Craft Crew.
Of course, I used some of my favorite colors to create this card. I love the way these “beachy” colors go together.
The vellum circles were covered with Wink of Stella. This made them look like bubbles from a fizzy drink. A few sequins added some more bubbles.

Have you ever read The Secret Garden? It is a favorite of mine from when I first started reading chapter books. It is also one of the few books that I have read more than once. It is a book worth returning to often, when you need a comforting read from your childhood.
The Library Challenge posted this cover for The Secret Garden:
The black background and blue flowers intrigued me, so I took my inspiration from the colors and flowers.
Dark backgrounds are eye catching!
I need to use black backgrounds more often. I like the stark contrast and the soft flowers. It reminds me of Tole background trays.
It is hard to see but there is a little bit of shine and glitter on the background and on the flowers.
Make sure you check out all the other entries on The Library Challenge. They are always fun and creative.

I am joining in on a sketch challenge today. CAS(E) retro #343 caught my eye. I also needed to create a non-traditional Christmas color card for a team challenge, so this card satisfies both tasks.
Here is the sketch:
Here is my non-traditional Christmas colors card:
This foil card stock is so bright and pretty! I like the way this card turned out and could see it duplicated in many different colors.
A tip for die cutting foil card stock – always use a new cutting plate so the foil does not pick up scratches.
