Follow Your Dreams with Bright DSP

Good Day Crafty Friends,

I have another set of cards to share today. I have been creating batches of cards in different colour schemes as not everyone loves Pink like I do. Plus, I love rainbows and card sets created in rainbow colours are always so impressive and shows admirers of your creations that the card can look different in different tones.

I have combined the Follow Your Dreams bundle with the new Brights DSP Pack to create these cards. These DSP Packs are available in all the colour families including the In Colours. One side has dots the other has these FABULOUS stripes.

The Artisan Textures stamp set was used to create the card fronts. The large dream catcher image was then stamped over the coloured texture stamps. On scrap whisper white the dream catcher was again stamped in Black ink and then die cut using the coordinating Chase Your Dreams Framelits. Before adhering the die cut dream catcher to the card front, a circle of corresponding coloured card stock was cut and placed behind the dream catcher.

The floral stamped image was coloured using Stampin' Blends. The card front was then adhered to a card base with a small panel of striped DSP from the Brights collection DSP Pack.

To finish the cards and to keep them simple I added a die cut 'dream' created using the Chase Your Dreams Framelits from Black card stock. Before adhering the word die cut I slipped in a silver foil feather.

Thanks for stopping by today, until next time, stay awesome

Just Add Ink #414 Follow Your Dreams

Good Day Crafty Friends,

Hope you have had a great week. It's definitely winter in my neck of the woods, with temperatures dropping to single digits. Brrrrrr!!! As much as I am a Summery kind of gal, I do appreciate winter and rainy days as they are perfect for crafting lol.

Speaking of crafting,  I have finally made it back into my crafty space after a small hiatus, and just in time for this weeks Just Add Ink Challenge - Just Add a Window/Frame. Yipee, as I had the perfect bundle in mind for this challenge - the new Follow Your Dreams bundle, which includes the Follow Your Dreams stamp set and Chase Your Dreams Framelits.

I decided to make a box frame and add it to front of a normal tent fold card. The Sahara Sand Box Frame has been lined with a brick wall embossed background that has also had a Blushing Bride Water Colour Wash applied once the embossing paste was dry.

I started with a Sahara Sand card base, to which I added a piece of the Tropical Escape DSP in Blushing Bride. Some White Bakers Twine was wrapped around the frame and the 'dream' die cut in Gold Foil card (made using the Chase Your Dream Framelits) was adhered over the Bakers Twine.

I have used the large circular and smaller dream catcher Thinlits from the new Follow Your Dreams Bundle. Die cut from Gold Foil card and layered on top of each other with Tombow. The floral bouquet image was stamped with Black Ink and coloured using Stampin' Blends.
