Christmas & Flowers in July

Hi all!

I found my way back into the craft room!! It was so fun! Unfortunately, our camera is broken. Please forgive me for having to use my iPhone's camera to take these. I tried outside, inside, etc and this is the best I could capture.

I was inspired to pull out a Christmas idea for the SCS Christmas in July challenge. 

Supplies:

Stamps: Christmas Punch - Level 2 Hostess set, Circle Circus Stamp set

Ink: Soft Suede pad & Marker, Real Red Marker

Accessories: Wide Oval Punch, Sizzix Texture Plate, Real Red Wide Grosgrain, Mini-Glue dots, Dimensionals, Prima Holiday Poinsettias

----------------------------------

Next is my Lovely Flowers Card. I tried to let the new In Colors "speak to me" because I've been a bit reluctant to some of them but, I really enjoyed diving into these new colors and LOVING having the markers for the In Colors!

 

Again...sorry the colors aren't so great in this shot. It's sooo much prettier IRL (in real life, for those who don't know.) 

I colored the flowers w/Regal Rose and then outlined w/Rich Razzleberry Marker.

Supplies:

Stamps: Lovely Flowers

Ink: Rich Razzleberry, Regal Rose, Melon Mambo

Papers: Crushed Curry, Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, Lovely Flowers Bundle DSP, Old Olive, Whisper White

Accessories: 5 Petal Punch, 1 1/4 & 1 3/8" Circle Punches, Sizzix Texturz Plate, Eyelet Border Punch, Basic Jumbo Grommet, Razzleberry Polka Dot Grosgrain, Mini-Glue Dots, Dimensionals.

Glad to be stampin' with you all again & hope to have more to share with you soon.

These are great! I really wish I had ordered the Christmas Punch set. I agree with the fact you just have to dive into the new colors.
