IB61 - You're the Best
I love blue flowers - they're so unexpected and somehow they seem to just glow! And while I had my Mondo Hydrangea out for yesterday's card, I made a card for this week's Inspired by All the Little Things:

But, as often happens, I had some trouble making up my mind about which direction to go. I ended up with two other cards as well!
You just know that this one appeals to my CAS, minimal mind. I used a stencil and Distress Inks.
I love this big flower stencil (had it forever and I have no idea who made it - I was thinking it might be Hero Arts, but I can't find it) and I used Distress Inks.
I focused on the flowers and the window.
I used:
MCV81 - Merry Christmas
Here's my next card for this month's Muse: ChristmasVisions challenge where Chriss has given us this neighbourly inspiration:

I focused on Chriss':
-colours
-pattern of stamping around the edge of the card
-centred black sentiment
I used my MISTI and placed the stamp in one spot before inking and stamping then turning my panel 3 times. Then I moved the stamp, and repeated with a different colour. Again, and again, until I had used all 4 colours. I added Stickles to the snowflakes for some sparkle.
I used:
-GinaK inks

EH Pinsights, FS541 - Love You
Congratulations to this week's Splitcoaststampers' Featured Stamper, Kelly aka Technique_Freak.
I chose this card as my inspiration:
I focused on Kelly's:
-colourful sentiment with black add-on
-sentiment as focal point
-use of florals
I changed
- fewer layers
-die cut main sentiment instead of stamping
-stamped flowers on the die cut main sentiment
I also used Ellen Hutson's Pin-Sights board for my colour inspiration:
I focused on the photo of the row of flowers at the top left. I stamped Mondo Hydrangea and embossed it with gold ep. I used Prima Confections and a green Zig to watercolour. I then die cut it and added the black portion of the sentiment.
