Hello and welcome back to my blog! Today's card is for Global Design Project's GDP391 Theme Challenge . This week our theme challenge is Rain or Shine.

I used the Playing in the Rain Bundle and coloured all the images with Stampin' Blends. I also used the Raindrops Embossing Folder and the retiring Rain or Shine Specialty DSP. I used ink blending on the background to create the sky.

Instructions:

- Use a piece of Basic White A4 card, cut in half and folded. Cut down so that the height of the card is 6". Layer with a piece of Basic White card that has had Tahitian Tide ink applied with a Blending Brush and then embossed with the Raindrops Embossing Folder. Use some sort of distressing tool to highlight the embossed raindrops.

- Stamp the bunny from the Playing in the Rain stamp set using Tuxedo Black onto Basic White and die cut using the Playing in the Rain dies. Colour with Stampin' Blends (Flirty Flamingo, Pecan Pie, Pool Party). 

- Use the dies to die cut the umbrella and clouds from the Rain or Shine Specialty DSP, the kite from the DSP and Basic White card and the grass from Old Olive card. Adhere all the pieces to the card front.

- Stamp the sentiment using the Playing in the rain stamp set onto a piece of Basic White using Tuxedo Black and fussy cut down to use only part of the sentiment.

Hello and welcome back to my blog! Today's card is for Global Design Project's GDP381 Colour Challenge . This week we have a fun colour challenge using Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather and Blushing Bride.

For my card, I used the Playing in the Rain Bundle (stamp and die set) , Layering Diorama Die, Raindrops Embossing Folder and the Dandy Designs DSP (Sale-a-bration DSP for spends over AUD $180). I used Stampin' Blends and Stampin' Write marker to add colour. 

Instructions:

- Use a piece of Highland Heather A4 card, cut in half lengthwise and folded. Layer with a piece of Basic White card which has been embossed with the Raindrops Embossing Folder and had a light application of Blushing Bride ink with a Blending Brush.

- Cut three strips of the Fresh Freesia Dandy Designs DSP and adhere to the card. Use a piece of Basic White and apply Blushing Bride ink with a Blending Brush to give an ombré effect. Die cut with the Layering Diorama Dies and adhere.

- Stamp the turtle image from the Playing In The Rain stamp set using Tuxedo Black ink onto Basic White and use the coordinating dies to die cut out the image. Colour the image with Stampin' Blends (Fresh Freesia and Highland Heather) and a Blushing Bride Stampin' Write Marker and adhere.

- Stamp a sentiment from the Playing In The Rain stamp set onto a strip of Basic White using Tuxedo Black ink, layer onto a small strip of Highland Heather card and adhere. Add some 2021-2023 Fresh Freesia In Colour Opal Rounds  to complete.
