INSPIRED BY CHALLENGE - #IB222 DECOR

Happy Thursday! 

Today we have a fun & bright Inspired By Challenge for you!




Here is this weeks #IB222 inspiration photo and/or a sketch for you to try...



My card was inspired by the colors, the chevron and the pitcher/vase.

When I saw the inspiration photo I know I wanted to use my Chevron Stencil I bought a few years ago. The tulip image is from the Flourishes -Tulips for Friends Set (retired). I colored the flowers with various Copic Markers and then fuzzy cut the image. The sentiment is from the Concord & 9th - Harvest Wreath Set. At last I added some Silver Pearls around the sentiment.

Hope we have inspired you to play along?!?  Please stop by the INSPIRED BY BLOG to check out the entire team and this weeks entries!!! Looking forward to see your ideas! ~SL~

TIC TAC TOE CHALLENGE - #TTTC193 THANK YOU

Happy Day!

Hope you are as excited as I am for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to be back?!? I guess I'm a bit more excited, since I'm hosting this weeks #TTTC193 Challenge.....



Here is the #TTTC193 inspiration board for you to play with....


I chose the top column across -  WHITE CARDSTOCK, FLOWERS AND PEARLS.

For my card I used the amazing Spellbinder - Magnolia Blooms Etched Dies. I decided to ink blend the center of the flowers. The Gold Foil CS is from Taylor Expressions. At last, I finished my card off with the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil - Yana's Sentiment and some Pearls...voila.

Hope you will give the board a try?!? Please stop by the TIC TAC TOE CHALLENGE BLOG to view the entire teams creations and on how to play along! Happy crafting! ~SL~

Here is this weeks #IB221 inspiration photo along with a sketch you can try as well...

                                       

My inspiration came from the popcorn, the treat box and the colors.

I found these cute treat boxes a Target and figured they would be perfect for this weeks inspiration. I filled them with popcorn and started to decorate them with a SU - Heart Die and some left over Design Paper. The tags are so easy to make with the Tear Strip Tags Set and the matching Tear Strip Tags Dies from The Greetery

Hope you have a change to join us this week for this fun challenge?!? All the details and all the fabulous crafting ideas can be found on the INSPIRED BY BLOG! Wishing you a wonderful day and happy crafting! ~SL~
