Challenge 66 - Designer's Choice - Beverages / Drinks




Our new challenge has been chosen by our lovely Design Team member, Carol , and she has chosen the theme of beverages/ drinks.

Please welcome our fantastic Guest Designer Mary V 



I'm a teacher by profession and a paper lover whenever I can find the time. I'm married and I have 2 teenage daughters I live in the North of Portugal. My paper crafting hobby started about three years ago with some scrapbooking but it was when I discovered that I could make cards, that I became addicted. There is so much to learn and I feel humble when I visit other blogs and see wonderful projects. When I created my blog in 2012 I only had a few visits, so in the beginning of the year I decided that I was ready to show my projects to the world. It was when I started submitting to challenge blogs. I'm glad I did that! I've learned so much with so many wonderful crafters out there!

Here's what MaryV made :

Top Picks #64- Photo

Current challenge HERE.

Thank you to everyone who entered our photo inspiration challenge earlier in the month. There were so many beautiful entries that this was truly a very difficult decision to make. Congratulations to these ladies who were chosen as our top picks!


We loved the lace die cut, the distress inking on the feather, and the strong bold sentiment that pops against the subtle background!


 We loved Rocky’s stunning combination of the glitter image and the acetate card base. The layering of glitter looks fantastic!


Gerrina


Gerrina’s stamping here is a beautiful use of ink. It is like a stamped masterpiece!

Challenge 65 -Word Prompt - Flight



Welcome back to Inkspirational! This week we have a Word Prompt for you and the word is : flight.

Please welcome our talented Guest Designer Cornelia 



My name is Cornelia – otherwise known as fun stamping, which translates into Stempel Spass – the name of my blog. I am originally from Germany, hence my blog name, which just means fun stamping. For the last 17 years I have been living in New Jersey with my husband and our two children. I am working full time and like to spend my evenings creating cards. I have been totally hooked now for about two years. Besides card making I enjoy photography, baking, cooking, hiking, biking, reading, classical and all sorts of ethnic music. In addition, I love to travel! Somehow my days are always too short...

Here's what Cornelia made:

Top Picks #63 - colors

Current challenge HERE.

Thank you to all of the participants who entered our red, orange, and yellow color challenge! Here are our top picks for the challenge:


 We loved Deepti's beautifully blended base and the placement of her flower. The card is so eye-catching and we love how the flower appears to float!


 Maura created such a fun card! We love the stenciled sun rays behind the cityscape and we are amazed how creative it was to add yellow behind the cityscape to give the idea of light!


Harriet
Harriet created a great graphic look and we really like her sentiment placement! The colors look very bold against the white background!



Congratulations to our winners!
