SIP Challenge #53 CASE The Designer

Hello and Happy Tuesday!   This week's challenge at  Stamp, Ink, Paper challenge is going to be so much fun!!  The theme is CASE the Designer.. just pick one of the design team cards and CASE it!  How awesome is that!

So here's my card for this week.  I hope you aren't tired of the Playful Palette DSP yet!  I had to use it again to pair with the Easel in the Painter's Palette stamp set to make a shaker card!

I started with a Basic Black 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" cardbase scored at 4 1/4".  I added a 5 1/4" x 4" layer of Emerald Envy cardstock and then a 5 1/8" x 3 7/8" piece of the Playful Palette DSP.  I stamped the easel in Archival Black Ink onto Very Vanilla cardstock and then fussy cut the outside of it.  I used one of the Layering Square Framelits to cut out the inside.  I used a larger size of the Square Framelits to cut out the window sheet and the piece of Very Vanilla that I stamped on.  The new thin foam strips are perfect for making shaker cards!  I added a few black seed beads and some small black Pretty Pink Posh sequins!  I layered my Washi Tape on Very Vanilla and fussy cut them out to use as my base for the easel.  I popped the two strips of Washi up with foam tape since the Shaker Easel had dimension from the foam strips.

I think I love the inside as much as the outside!

SIP Challenge #50 - Sketch!

Hello and welcome to Stamp, Ink, Paper's Challenge #50!  This week we have an awesome sketch challenge.  I hope you'll head over and check out all of the design team's cards.  I love how a sketch can take you in so many directions.

Here is where the sketch took me this time.. 

I couldn't wait to use some of this new Playful Palette DSP that my sweet upline sent me.  I have to tell you that once I saw it in person, I couldn't believe I hadn't added it to my own preorder!  I just love the designs!  So on this card I started out with an 11" x 4 1/4" piece of Peekaboo Peach cardstock scored at 5 1/2".  I added a piece of Basic Black cardstock that was 3 1/4" x 5 1/2" to mat my Playful Palette DSP that was cut 3" x 5 1/2".  On a scrap piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, I stamped my brush strokes from the Painter's Palette stamp set. I then stamped the sentiment over the brush strokes in Archival Black Ink.  I added some black splatters with the Black archival ink as well.  I used my MFT zig zag dies to cut sentiment circle and the black circle mat.  Fast Fuse was used to adhere my black circle layer and I popped up the sentiment circle with Stampin' Dimensionals.  I cut some Silver Sequin Trim and adhered just under the sentiment circle with a glue dot.  I added three other silver sequins on my card to finish it off.  I absolutely adore this sentiment and it makes the perfect birthday card for my sweet friend Suzi!  I'm going to drop it by her house tomorrow!
