Inky Impressions 2nd Design Team Call

Inky Impressions is having its Second Design Team Call. I had so much fun coloring up Lili and Angelica, that I decided to throw my hat in the ring! Now that I've given those adorable images a try, there's no turning back!

You'll remember this card, which I posted yesterday. I'm officially submitting it as my entry for the DT call.

The DT call also requires a favorite non-card project. Well, I have to confess that except for this little purse, I haven't done any stamp related non-card projects in awhile. So, I sat down last evening and put this card holder together using a pattern by Andrea Walford.


Isn't it cute? I've put a couple of cards inside to show how it looks, but I plan to make a set of Lili and Angelica cards to fill this up and give it as a gift. When I have those cards ready, I'll definitely share them with you on my blog.

If you love to color sweet images, you should definitely give Inky Impressions stamps a try! They are too cute for words. There is also a challenge blog to add to the fun. I'm definitely going to play this Wednesday, that's for sure. For more inspiration, check out Kristine's creations. She's the one who convinced me that I had to have these stamps! LOL

Thanks for stopping by to visit today. I hope you'll remember to play in my Challenge For A Sunday Afternoon. This week's prize is a Basic Grey 6 x 6 June Bug paper pack!

Have a great day!

Inky Impressions and Challenge for a Sunday Afternoon

Happy Sunday! My friend Kristine is a Design Team member for Inky Impressions, a fairly new stamp company that makes these adorable images called Lili and Angelica. They are so darn cute!!! I just LOVE all the great cards and projects I've seen Kristine make with these images, so I had to give them a try.

Lili and Angelica are colored with my Copics. I drew a "thinking bubble" around Lili's face with a Sharpie and cut it out. Angelica is thinking of her good friend Lili and missing her terribly!

The DP is from the Early Bird collection by Cosmo Cricket (love, love, love!). The cardstock is Summer Sunrise from Papertrey Ink, and Basic Black and Kiwi Kiss (retired) from Stampin Up. I used my Marvy flower punches and then crinkled the paper before fastening them together with a Stampin Up Build-a-Brad. I also used my black Sharpie to create the "border" for the Hodgepodge Hardware label holder.

I thought it was fun making a "thinking bubble" card, and I can think of lots of combinations of stamps you could use to create the same sort of card. So, for today's Challenge for a Sunday Afternoon, I'm challenging you to make a "thinking bubble" card. Use Mister Linky below to link your card to this post. The deadline is Saturday, August 8th at 10:00 pm PST (GMT -8).



The prize up for grabs for this week's winner is a Basic Grey June Bug 6 x 6 paper pad! Everyone is welcome to play!

And, finally, without further ado, the winner of last week's Challenge for a Sunday afternoon is Sarah! Be sure to scroll down in her blog to July 29th's post to see her cute card. Sarah, please email me your address and I'll post your prize directly! (My email is on the left sidebar of my blog.)

I sincerely thank each of you who played last week, and I hope to see more participate this week. I don't mind at all if you combine my challenge with another (or others), as I know there are so many to choose from.

Have a fun rest of the day, and I'll be back soon with another Inky Impressions project to share.
