New Challenge @ Shopping Our Stash

 


Today begins a new challenge at...

Shopping Our Stash // #SOS520 ...A "use from your stash" challenge!!  The theme for this new challenge is "Mama Mia"...we would like to see cards honoring the women in your life.  From my stash, I used to stamp sets that have long ago been retired.  The Penned & Painted set of florals from Stampin Up, and the Mother's Day sentiment from Verve stamps (A company that is sadly no longer in business).

What do you have in your stash that could be used to create a card honoring the women in your life??  As a team we look forward to seeing your creations.  For some additional inspiration from the rest of our design team, hop on over to our blog.  There you will find some great cards from the other team members and all the details about this new challenge that begins today.

4 other challenges inspired today's card as well...


As You See It Challenges // #AYSI321 ...A color challenge!!  The colors called for in this challenge are Calypso Coral, Flirty Flamingo, Bubble Bath, and Daffodil Delight.  A perfect color combination for an array of florals.


Color Hues // #TCH85 ...A color challenge!!  Pink & Yellow are the two colors called for in this current challenge.  My take on this color challenge offers several shades of pink along with a splash of yellow at the center of each flower.


The Paper Players // #PP686 ...A "clean & simple" theme challenge!! SPRING FLOWERS is the theme of this CAS challenge!!  Stampin Up's Penned & Painted stamp set offers up a perfect spring flower!!


Cupcake Inspirations // #CI592 ...A cupcake inspired challenge!!  For this challenge we are to be inspired by the photo of cupcakes...FLOWERS!!  My inspirations was the peachy pink color of the flowers on this cupcake.

  1. Such lovely shades of pink & yellow on this beautiful Mother's Day card DJ! I love the little addition of the ladybug and the way you used the strips of plain pink cardstock to separate the different areas of the card. Thanks so much for sharing with us at the Color Hues Challenge!! Marcia (DT)

  4. I like the way you've created three zones: the clean space, the big flowers and the floral pattern. The addition of the tiny bug is sweet! Thanks for playing along with our colour challenge at As You See It.

  9. Your card is a beautiful design with those gorgeous coral papers. I too love those older Verve stamps that never go out of style, and I love how you placed the sentiment on the white space and the designer paper for a great look. The pretty matching envelope makes this combo a win win for an outstanding Mother's Day card.
