Life is Brew-tiful

The challenge at Just Us Girls was Anything Goes Stencil, and I adore stencils and the great techniques using them. No question the pastes and mediums can be messy, but they add some amazing texture and pop to a card. I used Pops of Color as my medium for this one.

I also adore coffee. A cup of dark roast black coffee is my morning friend! With stencil in hand, I combined supplies from Catherine Pooler and Newton's Nook to create this card.


The Pops of Color was also used to color the flowers on the stamped coffee mug, so it matched quite nicely.


Color, dimension and shine. I hope you get a chance to get inky today!

Just Add Balloons and Birthday

I've still been creating, but not doing challenges due to my crazy work schedule. The chaos hasn't ended, so trying to make the crafting, challenges and posting more of a habit. 

Decided to do the Just Choose Two challenge at Just Add InkJust Add Ink. I went with Balloons and Birthday, but you could argue some of the colors here are a bit bright.



I stamped my images from one of my favorite stamp sets, and I have to say this is one of my favorite paper packs and color combinations. It definitely sends a party vibe!

I hope you find some to create.
