KW color Inspiration #52






I love this pallet don't you? It is a hard one to work with. Hard to balance the warmth of the yellow with the cool grey and blue. When I made this card I figured I would do it as a double play. So I am also playing along with 365 cards, with challenge #79 Mondays Manufacturer, so I uses a lot of PTI, and Cuttlebug as those are my fave manuf.'s at the mo.

I made this beach theme card because that is what I thought of when I saw the colour palette. I love how the two yellows combine together to give such a warm sunny feeling.

I tried to just achieve the texture of a beach with the help of my cuttlebug embossing folders.

And the Pink Cat sentiment just went so well with this card, I couldn't wait to ink it up!

( I know I do get excited about the craziest things! ) LOL

I hope you have sunshine in your day!

KW#44


This colour combo this week is Simple Lovely! I absoloutely adore this card. This card was inspired by my dear friend Dawn McVeyhttp://www.dawnmcvey.typepad.com/. It is a card that I could definately see her making although, I can't think of specific card to reference back to. She was certainly on my mind when I designed this card. She loves scallops, brown, pink and Martha Stewart butterfly! And I forgot to say BLING!
I was thinking simple, and jaw dropping; cuz I always feel both of those when I stop by her blogo! ~lol
If you have no inspiration today, stop by her blog you are sure to find some!

KW Colour inspiration #42

I made this card as part of a set for my BFF. She lives in Hawaii so I thought I had best give her some that would work for males, and tweens.
I think this card did the job, simple yet fun and young. What do you think?
I find it very hard to make cards for tweens and teens do you also? Have you got any hints for me? Where do you get your inspiration from?

Today was a sad day for me; because my BFF and her family went back home to Kona. As always it was so lovely to visit with them, but time went much too quickly.

I hope you take time to appreciate all you have today, drink in every wonderful moment each day!

Kristina's Colour Inspiration #40


What a fun colour collection this is. I never tire of looking at gorgeous ribbons, fabric or of course paper!

I am currently on an incredibly tight budget. And well, to put it quite simply; I am hating it. Budget and stamping don't go well together, at least that is how I find it. I never seem to run out of a {Wish List}; and that works the exact same way for shoes. Perhaps it is because they are always changing styles and colours, or perhaps it is because both always fit and never require a diet! LOL What do you think?
Since I am totally craving all the great new sandals that are in the shops I thought I would just stamp myself an entire collection on this card, and dream that they were all in my closet! LOL

It's all in the Ingredients:
Card stock - PTI white
Ribbon - teal satin - Essential Packaging
Stamps - shoe - Amuse, senti - Inkadinkadoo
Ink- tuxedo black -Memento
Copics - BG18,YG97,YG91,Y21,YR23,R20

May there be New shoes in my life and yours again soon!
