The new Inspired By Challenge is up and it is a fun one. I love the colors. The Cafe made me think of a little cafe in Europe so I decided to use the French Girl collection from Echo Park. I was inspired by the colors and the sketch and instead of a cafe, I have a boutique. Reminds me of when I shopped on the Champs Élysées – window shopping of course because it was much too expensive for me LOL!
I adhered the stickers to some scrap paper then fussy cut them out so that I could mount on foam squares.
I love this new stamp set from Unity The Pecking Order. I think it could be used for so many occasions. A birthday (inside of card could be a ‘can’t believe all the candles’), a Congratulations (you did it!), Retirement (can’t believe you finally did it)… what would you use it for?
I colored with copics then cut out with the Postage Stamp Nesting Dies. To make it blend in more I colored the edges, lightly colored the background and then splattered some paint before mounting it on foam squares.
This month’s Uniquely Unity kit from @unitystampco is a fun one with a couple of chicken images.
I used this first one to play along with a couple challenges
I coloured her with copics and then cut out to mount on foam squares.
I paired it with the You Are My Sunshine paper from @echoparkpaper. To add a little interest I backed it with an old die from Reverse Confetti and added some glaze to her eyes.
This fun stamp set is on sale right now so be sure to grab it!

I have used a couple of AngieGirls from Unity Bailey Girl and Jane Girl along with the And Then it was Spring paper pack. I paper pieced the hoodie. I wore a yellow hoodie the other day and got many compliments so I was in a yellow hoodie mood! LOL

I am so excited to have my first projects up on the Echo Park page today. For this one I used the new Wine collection to create a couple of cards and a wine bottle tag. Would be perfect for a girls night don’t you think?
If you are a wine drinker, or have some friends that are, then you need this collection! So many fun elements and stickers in it.
When I saw the sketch from CAS colors and sketches, I knew what stamp set I wanted to use. I thought the Windowsill Woodlands from Unity would work well. What do you think?
The paper and hello die are from Echo Park. I mounted the animals on foam squares.
The stamp set is on sale right now so be sure to grab it!
There’s another weather challenge and this one is from Simon Says. Of course I thought of Echo Park Paper again and this time I used the You Are My Sunshine collection.
So many fun bright papers in this set. I adhered the stickers to scrap paper so I could mount on foam squares. The Hello Die is also from Echo Park
I used one of my sketches, which you can find here
The Addicted to CAS challenge is weather and I thought of the Silly Goose collection by Carta Bella, so many sweet images!
I fussy cut the goose sentiment and sun all from one of the 3X4 cards in the paper pack. The Smile was from another card. The goose and sun are mounted on foam squares for dimension. The paper strip at the bottom was a scrap that was ripped already, I just cut it to the right size. It is such pretty paper.
