August Monday Greetings with Star Stampz!

Time for some Monday Greetings action and a chance to win a prize from Star Stampz!  A big big thank you to Star Stampz for their continued support of our challenge each year!  I had to fun of crafting with the ever so cute image "Fireflies!"  Fireflies are one of my all time favorite things in the world!  They literally light up my world and land with their magical glowing trails!   I stand amazed just watching them flit and play across the night sky!

I colored this lovely up with Copics and colored pencils with a white gel pen for highlights!  I layered up on some pinks to match her dress to make my card!  Our required greeting this month is "Hello/Miss You" so I used a clear stamp for my sentiment!  Now gather up your ideas and come see us this month at The Outlawz Monday Greetings Challenge for August!

Creative Inspiration Challenges with Pattie's Creations!

It's August and hot as blazes where I live!  Great time to be inside with the a/c cranked up and crafting!  This month at Creative Inspiration Challenges our sponsor is Pattie's Creations!  A huge thank you to Pattie's Creations for sponsoring us! 💝 Please visit her store on Etsy and have a look at all the gorgeous designs! 

I made two pillow boxes from a kit I had picked up at Walmart!  I could have used the Cricut but I loved the pastel colors that looked like watercolors so went with the kit.   For the box above I used the image "Folding Fan with Orchids" and colored it digitally in Procreate then printed it out and fussy cut.  The sentiments for both of the boxes are stamps from my stash that were freebies in a now closed paper crafting magazine.  The box below has the image "Hummingbird Floral Wreath" and  I used the same process as above.  After fussy cutting I popped them up with foam strips along with the senties.

These images are just so lovely!  We hope to see you at Creative Inspiration Challenges in August where  it is always Anything Goes!!  Keep cool out there!😎
