Bold wishes

It's my third post for tonight, and I'd love it if you checked out my CASE Study and Glitz Design cards as well. Scroll down to see them, thanks!

So, I had an inky evening :) With life having picked up speed, I often lately find my mojo eluding me, but it's only tiredness that I will hopefully fight soon.
I have a feeling that these two lack the spark, but I'm aware that it's my personal view (heck, at this time of night I lack the spark in the first place, lol), and by any other means they're just fine. I sure hope you'll like them!

Firstly, a card for this week's Tuesday Trigger: Garden Glory. It's a delicious one! (the challenge, of course)
It's a truly eclectic card - I used five different stamp sets from three companies on it :)

Photobucket

Supplies: cardstock: PTI (Rustic Cream), recycled kraft; paper: Pink Paislee (365 Degrees); stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps (Ballerina Rose), Hero Arts (Fabulous Flourish, Antique Engravings), Waltzingmouse Stamps (Vintage Labels 10, Say It Loud); ink: Memento (Rich Cocoa), Versa Magic (Turquoise Gem), ColorBox (Hunter Green), Distress Ink (Frayed Burlap); lace trim: Kaisercraft; staples; wrinkled ribbon; flower: Wild Orchid Crafts; BG11 Copic; Nestabilities Labels 10

I paired the Trigger with the Deconstructing Sketch (DS18) and the OCC challenge Stamp Happy, which is about stamping on patterned paper.



For the second, masculine card, I inked up my new "babies" - PTI's A Little Argyle and Big & Bold Wishes sets. Joy oh joy :)

Supplies: cardstock: Canson (turquoise, grey), white; stamps: Papertrey Ink (Big & Bold Wishes, A Little Argyle, Blooming Button Bits); ink: Memento (Tuxedo Black, Bahama Blue, London Fog), Papertrey Ink (Fresh Snow); buttons; black pen

This time I paired the SC349 sketch, with the colours of CTD158:



Thank you so much for paying me a visit! Your comments mean the world to me :)
Have a lovely day,

Chupa, the spark is there!!! I LOVE how you stamped that butterfly in the corner of your label, and the way you layered everything on that first card is perfect! And I think the second one is a GREAT masculine card without being overly stereotypical, if that makes sense? I love them!
