The Mini Masterpiece challenge is that your image can only be 2 inches by 2 inches. I've used an old Stampendous flower stamped four times and coloured with copics and stickles.
The next card uses an old Hero Arts stamp, which is the requirement for this week's Dust 'em Off challenge at A Blog Named Hero. The flowers are from a very old retired set called "Asterisks".
And both qualify for this week's sweet Tuesday Trigger:
I wish I had ink in these 4 exact colours - they are the perfect mix of brights and pastels. I keep trying, but have never found that pinky-red or the green or that creamsicle orange. Stampin' Up - are you listening???
Hi Ardyth, these two cards are beautiful! I love your flowers,the colors and the simplicity. I always think less is more!

I will ask Santa for a few of your brain cells! I love how consistent your style is, always so clean. W
ReplyDeletehile the rest of us are wondering how we would get anything at all into just two inches, you have 4 "masterpieces" in the 2 inches.
That green you want MIGHT be Colorbox lime pastel chalk ink. Those colors are ones I would love to find in cardstock as well as ink.
Bahb
Both gorgeous cards Ardyth - LOVE the first one especially!!!
ReplyDeleteI think if I had those exact colour inks I'd be too tempted to eat them LOL!
I love your little square of flowers, so small, but so bright and punchy.

Ardyth, you've been a busy girl! I LOVE the bright and cheerful colors you've used...and your OLW card is so creative! I never thought to used several images to make up the square...DUH! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteLove these bright colours and the square of flowers is just perfect. I love your CAS style.
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards. I especially love the first one with the four flower images. Such bright, wonderful colors. Great idea to stamp your image four times to create your square. :) ann Y.
ReplyDeleteArdyth, Love your beautiful bright colors. Your mini masterpiece for OLW is super!... Thanks for playing along this week!
ReplyDeletevery cute 2x2 card, isn't it amazing how fresh and trendy such a simple card can be!
ReplyDeleteso clean and fresh! thanks so much for playing along with Challenge #4 at A Blog Named Hero!!
ReplyDeleteLove these cards. I'm thinking the closest I could come to the cookie colors would be my stack of Brilliance Pearlescent stamp pads - have you tried any of those? I admit to having longings for brighter more colorful stamp inks than I usually find...
