Dear Ones~
We have a fun new challenge over at Double D. It's called PICK THREE. It's June, and that brings thoughts of weddings. For the challenge we can choose three from something OLD, something NEW, something BORROWED, and/or something BLUE. Example: it can be an old stamp, die, paper etc, or new of the same, or something borrowed from another crafter and/or something blue, just have fun with it! I chose something OLD, something NEW and something BLUE. Here is the Mood Board for our inspiration:
This is my sample:
I really enjoyed making this card. I used a very old GKD stamp by Melanie Muenchinger called Inspiration Mosaic and stamped it on some old patterned paper. I used several new stamps in the various squares using the masking technique, so fun to do. That bee stamp and the die cuts are new as well.
The Ingredients:
GKD White and Turquoise Sea Card Stock - Something BLUE
GKD Black Onyx Ink
GKD Turquoise Sea Ink
GKD Inspiration Mosaic - Something OLD
PS Floral Farmhouse Patterned Paper - OLD

Oh Judy, this is stunning!!! The monochromatic tones and details are superb! The choices you made for stamping the inside of each tile fit and coordinate perfectly together. The pearls and glitter are the cherry on top!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Judy! Beautiful shade of turquoise and very nice collage image. You made that bee look so elegant! The shaded inking around the sentiment looks amazing and I just love those silver baubles!
ReplyDeleteOh, gosh, I can see how you must have had so much fun with this! Lots of creativity showing in that fabulous background, and love the bee and flowers in the foreground!
ReplyDeleteI have that inspiration stamp for long ago, but you have really put it to great use on this card. It reminds me of the newer postage stamp die. Once again you have used new and old together to make a fantastic card. I love the blue, I think it is my favorite. This card has an antique look but without the drab inks.
ReplyDeleteGosh that mosiac stamp has been around awhile. I think I still have mine but not 100 percent sure. As for your card, it's a show stopper. That bee is to die for. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThis is magnificent....in style and design and color palette! You have really made 2 cards as that background is outstanding--love it! Loving that bee and the 'greenery' surrounding it! This is AHmazing!!!
ReplyDeleteStunningly beautiful, I absolutely LOVE this, the background is amazing and what a cool bee he is too, all so very inspiring for our challenge!!
