The Flower Challenge #83 Reminder

 

Have we had you seeing spots?  or are stripes your thing?  Either way, we are so happy to have you adding your creations to our gallery at The Flower Challenge - of course they must have the requisite flowers, you know!  I had borrowed a really lovely Botani-cut Geranium set from The Greetery from my friend Marcia recently... it turns out it is right at home on my stripes!  

PTI stripes, that is, cut with one of their layering frames.  Adding these inks with a small blending brush allows for lots of depth and dimension.  I made a little 'pot sign' using an old Altenew mini set called Best Sentiments.  Here are those referenced inks:

Alright!  I'm off to see all of the reminders from my teammates, and to check to see if YOU are in the gallery!  Oh, you better believe I am watching!

Inspired By #189C

Welcome, friends!  It's a special day at Inspired By today, as we

celebrate National Love People Day and invite some of our best crafty friends to play along with us this week.  Guess what?  

We want YOU to invite a friend to play along with you, too!!

One of the best things about being friends with another crafter, is the bounty of supplies you have at hand!  I mean, come on, we can't OWN it all!!

Last month, my friend Marcia brought along her Geranium dies from The Greetery - the moment I set eyes on them, I knew they'd be perfect for this week's 

Christmas #IB189C at Inspired By...

tell me if you agree...

I used a good ol' favorite die from W&W for the panel, and for cutting

that little napkin from a scrap of dp.  

PTI is responsible for the Christmas greenery, and the greeting, stamped on a little 

Altenew Apothecary label - a perfect fit, if you ask me!

Here's her closeup:

You may or may not have noticed the 'swipe' of silver ink on this pot.

Thanks, Marcia, for lending me that die set - it's going to be hard to add color to the others!  I love them so much in white!   And thanks for hanging out with me and our friends at IB today!

I hope you are inspired to play along this week!  For even more inspiration for IB189 please come see what my teammates have made - absolutely gorgeous cards, as usual! and all our other friends have blown our minds with theirs, too!
