Face the Sunshine

The new Club Scrap Hello, Sunshine hybrid collection was just what I needed to add some joy to these gloomy days. With the bright, bold yellows and oranges who could be sad?! I used the bonus sketch available to Club Scrap members only to create this digital layout about recent travel to Boston.

Sunshine in my Pocket

One of the challenges this month over at Club Scrap Chat was to create a card with a weather themed sentiment.  I love mixing and matching stamp sets. When I came across this sunshine in my pocket quote I knew it would go perfectly with the new Hello, Sunshine stamps. 

Stamp the denim pocket, fussy cut and add jewels.  

Stamp the daisies and fussy cut.

Shine On

Fusion is hosting a Gnome sketch challenge.  Since I no longer have my gnome stamps I chose to use the sketch for inspiration.

Hello, Sunshine is the latest Club Scrap collection and it couldn't have come at a better time!  I needed these bright colors and cheerful greetings.

Quarantini

I'm still having fun sending out some much needed smiles to family and friends during these interesting times. I thought I'd make these little germs pastel colors and join the fun over at Paper Smooches who is hosting a Pastel Color Challenge.

Hello Spring

Hello Spring!  

I'm using my self quarantine time to get caught up on some holiday and seasonal cards.  I was inspired by the newest Cupcake Inspiration #490 color challenge to create this Easter card. I promised myself that I'd use some of my neglected stamping tools.  Using the Gina K Wreath Builder I stamped these adorable eggs in multiple pastel colors.  The feather is such a lightweight fun embellishment, don't ya think?
