House of Cards September Classic & Elegant

It's time for another challenge at the House of Cards Challenge Blog and the Classic & Elegant team is posting this week.  This month our challenge is a photo/color inspiration...

  

Here's my card from the inspiration...


I loved the weathered boards in the inspiration photo.  I found this cute weathered boards DP from Basic Grey "herbs & honey" and the cute fruit advertisement in my Apron Strings August All Year Cheer Card Kit.  The canning jar is from Stampin'Up! Perfectly Preserved (retired) and the sentiment is Stampin'Up! Hostess Hello There.  Ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon. Come join us at the House of Cards Blog for this month's challenge!  

I am also entering this in Darnell's latest NBUS (Never Before Used Schtuff) Challenge as I had never used the stamps in the Hostess Hellos set or the DP and Ribbon.  Click on the picture below if you want to play in her challenge.  She has some great prizes!

It has been a while since I played on the Inkspirational Challenge Blog.  But the beautiful Photo inspiration caught my eye.

My First Inspired by Stamping Post

Today is my first day posting on the Inspired by Stamping blog.  After seeing the gorgeous watercolored Waterlilly card that DT buddy Nupur did, I thought it would be fun to watercolor the sunflower in the French Country stamp set.

I used the Creative Tags stamp set for my sentiment.  I love how that set has every sentiment you could want to make cards with.  The small tags are perfect when you don't want your sentiment to overwhelm the rest of your card.


I hope I have inspired you to try watercoloring your stamps.  After you try it be sure to sign your work of art!  Happy Crafting!
