Inspired by Stamping Blog Hop

Hello, Friends!  Inspired by Stamping is having a customer blog hop and I thought I would share cards I have made with IBS digital images or stamp sets.  I had intended to join in on the hop but it's leaf change time and Don and I are out and about shooting (digital images, not guns) and are hiking to waterfalls daily.  I have no heat in my studio and it's 45 degrees in there these days!  So to support Joanna, I decided to share IBS projects with you.  The links to the blog hop participants are at the end of the post.  Stop by and tell them kReN@afourthlife sent you!

To Someone Special

Hello, Friends.  Joanna Munster from Inspired by Stamping has done it again.  She has a lovely image of sunflowers for you to color and it's free with the Inspired by Stamping newsletter available this weekend.  Be sure to visit the store site and sign up for the newsletter so you will receive it every month.

Here's some inspiration for you.  I separated the sentiment from the flowers using Preview on my Mac so each could be printed in different sizes.  I colored the front of vellum with alcohol markers and created a frame for the image.   

Pumpkins!

Hello to all!  PDE Linky Challenges has a theme this week of pumpkin projects.  I recently made cards for Inspired by Stamping and thought I would share them with you.  The digital image is free with the IBS newsletter and can be purchased later on the shop site.  Be sure to join the PDE Linky Challenge this week and share those pumpkins!

Friends Warm the World

I'm in the studio again with Inspired by Stamping using the Cherry Blossoms set.  I love this embossing folder and can't wait to try some direct-to-paper techniques with it.  Have a great day!

Fresh Bouquet

Hello, friends.  Today I am in the studio with stamps by Inspired by Stamping.  I'm using Fresh Bouquet.  The happy everything sentiment from the Happy Thoughts set from Flourishes lc makes this card versatile and it will be happy mail for someone very soon.

IBS Cherry Blossoms

Today I am sharing a card made using Cherry Blossoms by Inspired by Stamping and the Blessed sentiment set.  It was an image colored on a bus while on a trip.  Quite a challenge with bumps and curves.  I used watercolor pencils and a water brush.  I love the flowers and sentiments from IBS.  Enjoy!

Live Life in Full Bloom

Hello, Friends.  I love floral images and Inspired by Stamping has some lovely images to color.  My card today features a set called Magnolias.  Although I have other metallic paints, I experimented with a set I purchased at a stamp convention from Yasutomo.  Unfortunately, the photo doesn't show the shine of the image that is heat embossed with gold.  Thanks for stopping by today!
