DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #192 - Color My World

It's time for the weekly DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  Today it is a  "Color My World" challenge.

 
 
 


This card has flowers and a bit of bling, all a girl needs on her birthday.  I love the Irresistibly Floral Speciality DSP, you can leave it white or add color with one of our wonderful Stampin Pads.  This was so easy I cut the DSP and sponged on Sweet Sugarplum -- one of the new in-colors.  The embossed flowers and swirls are stunning.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella on the jewels from the  July 2016 What A Gem Paper Pumpkin kit.  I participate in many swaps each month and this card is made for an upcoming sketch swap on Swap-Bot.  Tomorrow this gem is going to Florida.
Card Recipe:

Card Stock: Mint Macaron, Island Indigo, and Whisper White
Stamp/s: What a Gem ( July 2016 Paper Pumpkin)
Ink: Island Indigo, Sweet Sugarplum, Mint Macaron
Punches: Banner Triple Punch
Accessories: Tombow Mono Glue, Dimensionals,  Wink of Stella Glitter Brush

DOStamper STARs Thursday Challenge #191 - Sketch Pad Challenge - Flower Shop

Welcome to this week's DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we are having a "Sketch Pad Challenge" inspired by the sketch below.

   
 
 
I kept this card very simple to follow the sketch that I adore.  Finally used some of the vellum I got during Sal-A-Bration, I love the images on the vellum.  Maybe  it comes back in other patterns, perhaps for the holidays.   I hope this heat is getting better for most of you, we are at about normal here in North Texas averaging in the mid 90's.  My grass is starting to turn brown, boo hoo, hope we get rain soon. 
 
 
Card Recipe:

Card Stock: Night of Navy, Botanical Gardens Vellum (retired)
Stamp/s: Tin of Cards
Ink: Whisper White Craft
Punches: Retired Oval Punches
Accessories: Dimensionals, Tombow Mono Glue, Iced Rhinestone Embellishments, Clear Wink of Stella

Welcome to this week's DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we are having a "Product Spotlight Challenge".  The product for this week are the exclusive Host Sets that are only available with Stampin Rewards.  You can see them on pages 198 - 200 in the current catalog.   

 
 
 
For my card this week I choose the "Love You Lots" set.  I have had an affinity for ladybugs ever since we adopted our children form China and hedgehogs remind me of my years living in England while I was serving in the USAF.  This is one kit I knew I had to have.  Did you know that ladybugs can be yellow, orange or red?  I did not know that until I witnessed the different colored ladybugs after we moved to Texas.  To learn how I made this little label with the Decorative Label Punch click here to watch the video.

Card Stock: Extra Thick Whisper White, Real Red
Stamp/s: Love You Lots
Ink: Basic Black, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red
