I have several card requests for a group of ladies I will meet with next weekend and needed some inspiration. Well, through Ann S.Taft's crafting board at Pinterest, I discovered Heather Telford (Bits & Pieces). Wow! What a talented lady! The following cards were inspired by her work. It involves sponging, masking & stamping.
The floral stamp is by Paper Inspirations and I used SU markers to color right on the stamp before stamping on the designer paper. The sentiment stamp on the front is by Anita's and the inside sentiment is by The Stamp Pad Co.
I have used the same stamp & technique for the inside image.
The sentiment on the front of the card is from Stamps 'n More ... stamped using the same TH 'dusty concord' ink. The die I used to cut it out is Spellbinder Heart Circles.
I've repeated the Iris stamp on the inside using the same technique and the sentiment is Verses Rubber Stamps.
This was actually the 1st card I created following the design inspiration from Heather.
Inks: TH 'Tea Dye', 'Antique Linen' and Ranger Archival Ink 'Coffee'
Stamps: Stampendous, Great Impressions,
Sentiments: Impression Obsession (front), the Artful Stamper (inside)
I actually took the time to complete the inside of each card so I could slip them into a clear sleeve and now they are READY to sell at the card party next weekend. I have a few more cards to share with you but won't OVERLOAD you with them today. I will share them another day this week!
A big thanks to Heather Telford for sharing her wonderful talents and inspiring me today! Isn't the internet a wonderful thing! LOL!! Well, with that being said, I hope I've been able to inspire some of you today too. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and please ... stop back soon!
