Muse and More

Hello!  I hope you are having a good weekend.

I just wanted to post a few cards that I have made this afternoon.  There are so many fun challenges around at the moment that there just aren't enough hours in a day :)

First up is Muse - I have been meaning to play along for ages but always seem to have run out of time.  However, Bobby's fab inspiration card finally got me started!  It was also a chance to play along with my new Papertrey Ink scribble dies:

 

I loved the warm colours and dark card base on Bobby's card and the dotty swirls that she used.  I would have really liked to do something with texture paste but didn't have time to break that out today.  The sentiment is from Avery Elle.  Thanks for inspiring my card, Bobby!

 

I also had a bit of cardstock that I had stamped with Hero Art's fantastic starry background and decided to use it to make a card:

 

 

This is a really simple design - I stamped the sentiment from HA's Written in the Stars and combined with some die cut glittery stars and enamel dots.  I sprayed some Studio Calico shine spray and inked around the edge of the panel to give it a bit of definition.  I will play along one last time with A2Z Scrapbooking's August Challenge to make Encouragement cards and will link up with Simon Says Stamps Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes.

 

I hope you like them - I'm off to make some more :)

 

Thanks for stopping by,
