The 2014-15 Stampin' Up! catalogue ends 2 June 2015 and I've made card featuring the retiring 2013-15 In Color Crisp Cantaloupe, co-ordinating Sequins and Gold Soiree Designer Series Paper. It also features a sneak peek of the new Endless Birthday Wishes sentiment stamp set available from 2 June 2015 from the new 2015-16 catalogue. I stamped the gorgeous Flowering Flourish in Garden Green ink for the flourish and used my Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral markers for the flowers. I layered a strip of Gold Soiree Designer Series Paper onto the Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock. I stamped the Celebrate sentiment also in Crisp Cantaloupe and added a twine bow and some sequins to complete the card.

Most urban dwellers know the struggle of finding the perfect plant that not only adds greenery to your indoor space but also thrives within the conditions that we can provide for it. Beautiful or ornate foliage plants often have restrictive light requirements, leaving us with fewer options. Prayer plants—a common name for calathea, maranta, and other Marantaceae, which are similar (but not identical) plants—may be the perfect low-light plant for you.

Happy Sunday, everyone! Sunday is fun day because it's the start of another challenge at The Paper Players. My dear friend Sandy has some gorgeous inspiration to get our mojo going for her theme challenge of Autumn Floral: This card took waaaay longer than it should have. Not because of the theme of the inspiration photo, because I could not translate the image in my head to paper! I tried numerous stamp sets but couldn't capture the blended hues I wanted with just a single color of ink. In the end I went with an old standby image and found my happy place in watercolor! I also used the fantastic sketch at the Global Design Project as my starting point--sure do love a sketch challenge and this one is great! The first thing I stamped was the leaf from the Colorful Seasons stamp set. I inked it in Crushed Curry and lightly kissed the inked stamp with Cajun Craze. When stamped it gave a two-toned color to the leaves and no two are exactly alike, just like real leaves! I am really liking the Fresh Fig in color for fall projects. The gorgeous flower from Birthday Blooms was stamped in Basic Gray archival ink onto cold press watercolor paper. I colored the image in layers starting with Sweet Sugarplum, adding a few layers of color to rich the intensity I liked. Fresh Fig was washed on to shade the flower and add dimension. I washed the center of the flower with Crushed Curry with some drops of Cajun Craze. I wanted to mimic the color of the leaves in the inspiration photo as well as my stamped ones, so I colored these with a blend of Old Olive, Crushed Curry and just a hint of Cajun Craze. The whole image was actually stamped twice--once to provide the base with leaves and the second to cut out and pop up just the flower. I added some looped copper thread and a bitty die-cut stem in copper foil paper from the Flourish thinlits. By this time, I was running out of light to snap a pic of my card so the inside was a quick 1, 2, 3 stamp job using a sentiment from Thoughtful Branches in Fresh Fig, the Birthday Blooms flower in Crushed Curry and some [retired] Gorgeous Grunge splatters in Sahara Sand ink. There were a TON of stamp set and dies on my desk by the time I finished this card, lol! It took me awhile to get there but, in the end, I am pleased with the colors and final result. I hope you are too! Here's the awesome Global Design Project sketch--thanks for the inspiration GDP! Please go check out the rest of the lovely autumnal inspiration from my teammies at The Paper Players. Maybe you'll be inspired to play along with us before the challenge closes on Friday, October 6th at Noon (PST). Thanks for stopping by!
