Your Next Stamp - Fun Friday!

Today I am please to be sharing my first Fun Friday post for Your Next Stamp.

You can find all of the details about the YNS Fun Friday challenges on the challenge blog. Each month you will see a new sketch

or photo inspiration

You can use one, both (just not neither ha ha) and create a project to share at YNS.

I used Dance Fhiona and created a card inspired by both the sketch and the colours from the inspirational photo. I love purple, however purple paper seems to be a rare item in my collection. I was very lucky to have found this paper collection from Wild Rose Studio (Bella). It goes so well with the sweet Fhiona!

The image is coloured with Copic Markers. I added a small amount of Glitter Ritz fine glitter to the heart.

Inside my card I was able to use some of my scraps of patterned paper and card stock. I added a portion of the adorable Fhiona image and this beautiful sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will create a project to join in using this months sketch or inspirational photo. You could win a $20 YNS gift certificate.  Please check out the current challenge over at the Your Next Stamp challenge blog.

Come back soon and have a FUN FRIDAY!!!

Little Red Wagon # 242 - Wedding

It's time for another wonderful challenge over at Little Red Wagon.

This week Joanne is hosting our challenge and she would like to see projects with a WEDDING theme.

Although I don't have any weddings yet for this year, it is nice to have these cards ready in my stash. For my card I went with a simple design and chose a colour scheme that will work for most weddings.

Black and white with a pop of red.

The background is embossed with the Cricut D'vine Swirls embossing folder. The "Love" was cut with a great die from Your Next Stamp called the Journal Card Bracket Insert Die. The set also comes with the words smile, family and today.

Using a die from My Favorite Things, I cut out the heart in my white card stock. I also cut a heart from red card stock to layer behind the white. The red heart I ran through my Xyron and then applied Glitter Ritz microfine glitter to the sticky side.

When it was time to finish off the card, I quickly realized that I did not own any sentiment stamps related to weddings. Of course I could have used a simple congratulations, however I did find a sentiment in a stamp set from Your Next Stamp's called Dance Fhiona that worked rather well .

I hope that you will join this weeks WEDDING challenge over at Little Red Wagon. While you are there check the other Girlfriends projects to see more fabulous wedding inspiration. You will not be disappointed.

Have a wonderful Wednesday and happy crafting everyone!
