Hey friends!! Popping in with a couple of cards for some challenges: ColourQ, Color Throwdown and CASology - birthday. Today I got lots of fun new crafty stuff so I will also be entering the Simon Says Stamp Work It Wednesday: new. First up is my card for ColourQ.
For this card I used the Stampin Up! SAB (Sale-a-bration) set Lotus Blossom. The flower was stamped using Cherry Cobbler, Rose Red and Calypso Coral. The stem and sentiment were stamped using Memento London Fog and then a few clear sequins were added. I matted the piece with grey cardstock (I believe it is from Simon Says Stamp, but I don't know the name). Super simple, but a design that I think will work very well for all kinds of cards. Think this is the one I will add to the SSS Work It Wednesday.
This card is for CASology and Color Throwdown. I used the Stampin Up! set Butterfly Basics. It has a matching die set that I wanted to use for the card, but boo hoo... the dies are on back order! Hopefully I will get them next week. Butterfly Basics is a stamp set that makes my inky little heart very happy! Lots of collage possibilities with this one. The color combo at Color Throwdown is one that I would never dream up, but I think I made all the colors work nicely. I used distress inks (Squeezed Lemonade, Crushed Olive, Peacock Feathers and Seedless Preserves). After stamping everything I also finished this one with some clear sequins.
Thanks for stopping by...
Supplies: Cardstock: PTI white, rustic white and kraft; SSS grey; Stamps: Stampin Up!; Inks: Stampin Up!, Memento and Distress Inks; Pretty Pink Posh clear sequins

Beautiful cards - I have the lotus set but haven't been able to line it up as perfectly as you've done here - I'll need to practice! Your botanical birthday card is lovely, too - love the shimmer of the sequins. Thanks for joining us at CASology this week!
