{ Hello – color and sketch challenge }

I have a quick card today that I created after I saw the Color Throwdown #398. In addition, I used a sketch from Case this sketch #178.
I wanted to use some of my brand new Technique Tuesday stamps that were released this month. For this card I used Bravo stamp set and Marquee Arrows DIY Steel die.

Hello by Daniela Dobson

I used my Ranger Distress Stains, they are like paint daubers. I added two strips of washi under that. “Hello” is stamped and cut out. I added Therm O Web 3D foam adhesive to pop it up a little bit for dimension. I added some Whipped Spackle through a stencil from StecnilGirl Products. The pink wasn’t bright enough so I die cut an arrow from bright pink paper and added some sequins.

Have a great Monday!

{ Sketchy Thursday with May Cake by the Ocean kit from Scraptastic Club }

I am sharing a layout I created with our June sketch using May 2016 Cake by the Ocean kit, add-on on Scraptastic blog today.

Happy day by Daniela Dobson

I pretty much followed the sketch with strips of paper behind my small photo. I duplicated the flower clusters with round embellishments. I added color shine sprinkles and washi from my stash, and enamel dots from a previous kit.

Here is one more layout with May kit.

Most favorite by Daniela Dobson

For this one I used modeling paste and the stencil that came in the kit. I used just a little of patterned paper behind the photos since I wanted those vellum shapes to stand out.

{ Sunny Days collection from Elle’s Studio }

This week we are highlighting Sunny Days collection on Elle’s Studio blog. It’s a brand new collection from Elle’s Studio. Here is my layout.

Summer fun  by Daniela Dobson

I started my layout with patterned paper and then I added the striped patterned paper to each side. I wanted to add a big sun to the layout and I hand cut a circle and some triangles from patterned paper. I added a die cut to the center using foam adhesive. To the background I added modeling paste with a stencil, sprinkles of color shine, and sequins from my stash.

I had lots of fun with various die cuts, stickers and stamps from this collection. I noticed that there were lots of fun words in one of the cut apart patterned papers so I added those, as well.
