Card Art by Helen

Here's this month's colour combination:

And here's the project it inspired:

The Terrific Toadstools Bundle features a whimsical variety of toadstool and mushroom images and fun sentiments, along with a coordinating builder punch.
 

A strip of the striped patterned paper from the Toadstool Gardens 6" x 6" measuring 1" x 5¼" was adhered to the left hand side of a Pumpkin Pie folded card base. An additional panel of the mushroom patterned paper (from the same stack) measuring 3" x 5¼" was added to complete the card background layer.

A stitched circle (2&frac34") was cut from Basic White Cardstock using the die from the Stylish Shapes Dies. The triple stem image from the Terrific Toadstools Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped to the left side of the stitched circle using Granny Apple Green Classic Stampin' Ink, and the mushroom caps image stamped above the stems in Pumpkin Pie. The large mushroom stem and cap were stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Gray Granite and Fresh Freesia inks respectively, and cut out using the Terrific Toadstools Builder Punch. The image of a branch with leaves was also stamped on Basic White using Granny Apple Green ink three times, and cut out using Paper Snips. The 5 stamped elements were added to the stitched circle using Stampin' Dimensionals™. A 11" length of White ½" (1.3 cm) Woven Ribbon was folded into thirds, and adhered to the back of the circle. The completed element was added to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped on a strip of Basic White Cardstock (⅞" x 3&frac14") using Tuxedo Black Memento™ ink. The stamped strip was adhered to the card front, overlapping the bottom of the circle element, using Stampin' Dimensionals. Three Pumpkin Pie Sunny Day Iridescent Dots were added as the final embellishments.

Here's this month's sketch:

And here's the project it inspired:

The Darling Dinos Bundle features super cute dinosaur images and clever on-theme sentiments.
 

A Basic White Cardstock layer was embossed using the Starstruck Embossing Folder and trimmed to size (4" x 5¼"). A length of Petal Pink ⅜" (1 cm) Scalloped Ribbon was wrapped around the embossed layer, approximately 1.2 cm from the bottom. A rectangle (2" x 5¼") of the Subtles 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper in the Petal Pink striped pattern was adhered overlapping the top of the ribbon. The completed panel was adhered to a Basic White folded card base.

The two dinosaur images were stamped on Basic White Cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento™ Ink. One was coloured with Lost Lagoon and Soft Seafoam Stampin' Blends, and the other with Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, and Smoky Slate. The stamped images were cut using the coordinating dies from the Darling Dinos Dies. A heart was cut from Petal Pink Cardstock using the die from the same set. A stitched square (2&frac34") was cut from Basic White Cardstock using the die from the Stylish Shapes Dies. The two dinosaur elements and the die-cut heart were added to the stitched square, using Stampin' Dimensionals for the top dinosaur. The completed square was adhered to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals™.

A stitched circle (1⅝") was cut using the die from the Stylish Shapes Dies. "ROAR means..." was stamped using Tuxedo Black ink on the circle, and "I love you" stamped using Highland Heather Classic Stampin' Ink to complete the sentiment. The finished circle element was adhered to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.
