Jay Gee's Nook DT: so Sweet of you

Morning,
Hope you have a blessed weekend! Today, we have another well known new talented crafting member joining the design team. Welcome Iwona Palamountain (Chupa) to the team :)
Back to today's card, have you ever wonder you have a stamp set with different sentiments in it and you seldom use them? It happens to me all the while, so today this card mainly focusing on sentiments. The "Sweet" sentiments are from Practicing Creativity called For the Love of Dots while the "So" and "of you" from this Lawn Fawn set. Sweet directs me to think of pink, as results I chose pink gradient to work with this card and stamp them repetitively and added rhinestones to finish off the touches.

I hope this card speaks to you and gives you some inspiration in card making :) Be sure you stop by other DT's card for more mojo!

So Sweet of you

Paper Crafts magazine Presents: Bonus Sketch Blog Hop

Hello,
I am so glad and honoured to be part of the fun Paper Crafts blog hop in celebrating this special issue of Cards Ideas for Paper Crafters. Currently, Paper Crafts magazine online editor, P. Kelly Smith are hosting a "Bonus Sketch Blog Hop"over Paper Crafts Connection.

Photo courtesy of Paper Crafts

10 of us were asked to design a card using one of the 12 bonus sketches which can be found here. I choose Lucy Abrams sketch to make the card:

My card base on her sketch:
How fun is this sketch as I ended up came out with this "towel" ideas for couples who are celebrating their anniversary. The sentiment that I've used from Lawn Fawn gave a perfect touch on this card!

For me, to follow the sketch closely was one of my greatest challenge in this call as I knew I just couldn't follow. Although the sketch can be interpret in different ways eg. flip them, rotate them, invert them or use them as seen but still the end results always not pointing towards the sketch or sometimes just couldn't recognise the card was base on the sketch. However, it was fun to create a card base on the sketch which actually push me to step out of my comfort zone.

Please do continuing visit bellow designer's blog hop for more inspiration!

Jay Gee's Nook Challenge #10

Another fun challenge by Jay Gee"s Nook #10 over her blog. Don't you think the inspired photo look amazing? I really like how Joy selection with these inspiring images from Pinterest. Honestly, I hardly try these purple theme kind of color combination on my card. Thought it was challenging, but I think it is worth trying. I have also used this lovely texture paper from (Couture) s.e.i which gives a little bit of classy feel on the card.
