One Way to “Jumpstart” Your Creativity!

Do you ever need a “jumpstart” to get into your creative mode?  I have to admit that it happens to me.  This week I relied on the Freshly Made Sketches card sketch to give me a focus for my card design.

Having a layout to work gave me the inspiration I needed.  I had already planned to use the Fabulous Flamingo stamp set so it didn’t take me long once I got started.  Here is what I came up with.

Stampin Up Fabulous Flamingo, Itty Bitty Greetings stamp sets Layering Ovals Framelits, Classic Label Punch, Dot to Dot Embossing Folder - Deb Simonis Stampinup

Stamp Set – Fabulous Flamingo, Itty Bitty Greetings
Ink – Momento Black, Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo, Tranquil Tide

Thankful Thursday

Happy Thanksgiving from my house to yours.  The holidays are not always a festive time for everyone so I’m hoping you are able to find something to smile about today.

The card below is one that we made at my Fall Stamp Camp in October.

Stampin-Up-Pleasant-Pheasants-Corrugated-Embossing-Folder-Thanksgiving-card-Debra-Simonis-Stampinup
Stamp Set – Pleasant Pheasants
Ink – Early Espresso, Momento Black, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Crumb Cake
Cardstock – Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Whisper White
Accessories – Triple Banner Punch, Corrugated Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Metallic Pearls, Sponge Daubers, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Snail Adhesive

The wheelbarrow was colored by using sponge daubers to dab color on the different sections of the image.  Easy, peasy way to color in this intricate image when you don’t want to take time to color it.

Other options are to color the image with markers, Stampin’ Blenders or ink pads along with the Blender Pens or Aquapainter.
