Inspired Stamps: Thinking Of you Trio of Cards

Happy Thursday, my blog friends! This week the design team was asked to make a trio of cards with a thinking of you theme. I was inspired by bricks when making these cards. I cut out strips of 6x6 paper from the latest Amy Tangerine paper pad at one inch wide and cut them at 1.5 inches. This will give you four "bricks" per one inch strip of paper. A whole piece will give you 24 "bricks", that's a lot of paper brick laying! I only cut about three strips from each of my four different patterned papers to make these three cards. Really simple and fun to make! I used the following Inspired Stamp sets: Thinking of You, Spring Sketches, and Butterflies and Blooms. I colored in the butterflies from Spring Sketches and the heart from Butterflies and Blooms with Copics, and made a butterfly contrail by drawing dots with a Memento ink Tuxedo Black marker and tracing over it in Copics. And as always (haha, srsly love this stuff), I added some burlap twine to the last card and two pearls.

Inspired Stamps: DT Choice!

This week the design team was able to work with the stamps and themes of our choice. So I used my always favorite Butterflies and Blooms set and the new Thinking of You set's bold faced font sentiment. I used a couple of die cuts I had left over that I cut out and layered the butterflies on top of and a punched strip of scrap paper. For the butterflies I used Copics and little self stick bits of bling. Hope you like it and enjoy the last few weeks of the official summer! :)

Inspired Stamps: DT's Choice!

Good Thursday my fellow bloggers! Well we all know Gaby loves some butterflies and whenever she gets to use the Inspired Stamps Butterflies and Blooms stamp set it makes her very happy! OK, enough third person! I also used the sentiment from the newest release called Home. I thought it would be a cute card to welcome a new neighbor to the neighborhood. I live in a military town that is extremely transient, so I like to have a few cards like this on hand. Hope you like my card this week! Make sure to head on over to the Inspired Stamps Blog to see all the beautiful cards the other members of the design team have created for you!

Inky and glittery fingers for all!
