Power Poppy Fun Friday - Hellebores

~

Happy Friday!  Who's ready for the weekend?  I know I am!

Today for Power Poppy Fun Friday, I've colored up the new addition to the Hellebores digital stamp set...the flowers without a glass vase.

~

~

As I often do, I researched the colors of Hellebores before deciding on a color palette.  I really loved the look of the Ivory Prince Hellebores, so that's what I tried to color mine to look like.

~

The Hellebores digital stamp set is available in the Power Poppy shop!

With Sympathy - Color Throwdown #595

~

Happy Wednesday, y'all!  It's time for the latest Color Throwdown challenge!

Jodi is our hostess this week and the generic colors she's chosen are Black, White, and Turquoise!  I love this combo!

~

~

Sadly, I needed a sympathy card this week, so here is what I came up with:

~

~

I started with a water colored background, then simply added black leaves and a black heat-embossed sentiment.  A few rhinestones and some twine were all I needed to complete this CAS card.

We would love for y'all to join us this week!  Check out the challenge details at the CTD blog and be sure to stop by and see what all the designers have created for your inspiration:

Be a Mermaid - Color Throwdown #593

~

Happy Wednesday!!

I'm hosting the Color Throwdown challenge this week and these are the colors that I've chosen for us to play with: Pink, Blue, and Yellow.

~

~

I chose to use the Inner Mermaid stamp set, along with the matching dies, for a birthday card for a beautiful young lady.

~

~

The background was blended using Distress inks and Taylored Expressions Blending Brushes.  Then I spritzed it with water and let it dry.  The same was done with the pink for the mermaid tail and shell & starfish, before I stamped and die cut them.

After they were attached with foam mounting tape, I scattered lots of shine and sparkle everywhere!

We'd love to see what you do with this color combo!  Check out all the challenge details at the CTD blog and join us!

Mondo Hydrangea - Color Throwdown #592

~

Happy Wednesday! 

Today Barbara is our hostess and she has a beautiful color combo for us to play with.  The generic colors are Aqua, Teal, Gray, and Gold.

~

~

I knew right away I wanted to CASE Kelly Latevola's watercolor cards HERE.  They are so beautiful!  I had to change the white heat embossing to gold in order to use the design for our color combo this week.  So this is my card:

~

~

The resulting look is not as impactful as Kelly's with her white embossing, but I'm still happy with it.

We would love for you guys to play along with us in the challenge this week!  Please check out the details at the CTD blog and visit with each of the designers for SO MUCH inspiration!
