Birthday Scrapping

I have done something to my foot. Or ankle... Really, its the space below the ankle bone. I don't know what- but I'm pretty clumsy, so really, anything is possible. Also I'm over 40 so maybe I just slept wrong. Anyway, it makes it difficult to stand for a long time, which is how I craft, lol. So there's not a lot of new stuff.... 

But I did recently get some scrapping done for my youngest, so I can share that!

This one is quite simple, but I stamped strawberries on the pink card stock, because her pink shirt has dark pink strawberries. And the greeting isn't something I would usually think goes on a page, but in this case, it totally works. 

Supplies:

Stamps: Sweet Strawberry

Ink: Magenta Madness, Memento Black

Paper: Magenta Madness & Basic White card stock
Accessories: Iridescent Pearls, Oval Punch
Journaling Font: justbeautifulsimplicity

Today I have a card rather similar to Tuesday's but using a different color combo and sketch. This time I used the colors from Hand Stamped Sentiments, with the sketch from Inspire.Create.Challenge. And a whole lotta white space! And I used my other birthday words, lol! This one is also being mailed out very soon!

Strawberries!

I haven't had a ton of crafty time this summer, but I have been itching to play with Poppy Parade. I don't know why- I only just got that ink pad a couple months ago and it's been around a while! Maybe the record breaking heat is getting to me, haha, (It's about 20 degrees hotter than normal this week) but I finally used it, with this cute stamp and punch set!
I combined it with the latest from Freshly Made Sketches, albeit a bit awkwardly. But I think it worked out anyway. 

Supplies: 
Stamps: Sweet Strawberry

Ink: Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green

Paper: Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Poppy Parade, Basic White
Accessories: Strawberry Builder Punch, Blender Pen, Dimensionals

One of the strawberry's center stamps was stamped off once, and it's leaf center was too. The other was fully inked. And the leaves behind the berries were colored using Blender Pens to pull the freshly-stamped ink in and fill it in just a little. It adds just a little bit more depth than is already there with the DistINKtive stamps.
