Tap tap Thanks...

Hiya!

Sorry about the late post today folks - it's been back to a busy week this week and today was a busy day! This is the first chance I've had to sit down and post my ColourQ card for this week... Check out this week's colours...

I saw this card by Laurie Schmidlin the other day and it was my starting point of inspiration for my card this week. I took out Tap, Tap, Tap and a couple of Project Life elements to come up with this...

I used the new Hello Honey instead of the retired Summer Starfruit and used one of the Project Life cards from the Happiness Is collection, along with one of the journalling grid cards to stamp the typewriter on. I added some turquoise chevrons, indigo candy dots and a cute little paper clip, as well as a greeting from Starburst Sayings.

I used the sketch from Fab Friday (although a little loosely lol!) for my layout:

Here's the recipe:
Stamps: Tap Tap Tap, Starburst Sayings
Ink: Island Indigo, Hello Honey
Paper: Project Life Happiness Is collection & journalling card. Early Espresso, Whisper White, Tempting Turqouise
Accessories: Regals candy dots, paper clip
Tools: Alphabet Press embossing folder, Project life corner punch, Starburst framelits, chevron punch

Make sure you check out the wonderful inspiration from the rest of the Royal Court this week!

Thanks for stopping by!

Tap Tap Thanks...

Hi there!

I've had a request for some thank you cards for men so I'm trying to prioritise making some more of them... Even I don't find them particularly easy! I used a couple of challenges to help me with this one: the Freshly Made Sketch and the Colour Me combo...

I really wanted to use one of my fave new sets from the catty, Tap Tap Tap, as I thought it would work well for a masculine card...

I combed through the catty looking for a thank you sentiment that would fit in the typewriter paper and was delighted to find that the sentiment from Six-Sided Sampler fit perfectly! I used a few other new products on this as well: Lost Lagoon card, the large polka dot embossing folder (so fun!) and some dsp from the All Abloom stack. The typewriter was stamped with stazon, coloured with Smoky Slate ink and a blender pen then cut cut.

Here's the recipe: 
Stamps: Tap Tap Tap, Six-Sided Sampler
Ink: Stazon, Smoky Slate
Paper: All Abloom dsp, Lost Lagoon, Island Indigo, Smoky Slate, Whisper White, Naturals Ivory
Accessories: Essentials Hardware Clip
Tools: Large Polka Dot EF, Starburst Framelits, 2 1/2" circle punch, Project Life corner punch, Bitt Banners framelits, Circle card thinlits (banner)

Thanks for stopping by...
