Hi Everyone!
There is still time to play along with the current Time Out Challenge and be in with a chance to win $20 from our sponsor Happy Little Stampers. This week we have a Home Sweet Home photo inspiration. I was inspired by the bright fuchsia and lime green colors in the image, which I incorporated into my card with ink blending.
To start, I die cut the Altenew Pegboard die from a panel of Bristol Smooth cardstock. I then blended Distress Ink in Squeezed Lemonade over half of the panel starting at the edge. I used Distress Ink in Picked Raspberry and blended in from the other side of the panel, overlapping the yellow in the centre of the card. I used thin strips of foam tape and popped the panel up onto a Neenah Solar White cardbase.
I ink blended Distress Ink in Twisted Citron onto Bristol Smooth and then die cut the Altenew Happy Birthday die from it, as well as from plain white cardstock 3 more times. I adhered all the pieces together with spray adhesive and adherd to the centre of the card.
The sentiment was stamped onto a strip of black cardstock with Versamark ink and heat embossed in WOW! Bright White embossing powder. I adhered it directly over the Happy Birthday and then added a coating of Glossy Accents all over the sentiment. For a finishing touch, I found a sheet of patterned paper from my stash that reminded me of the wallpaper in the image – I die cut stars from it, popped them up on foam tape, and called it done!
Be sure to join in with us over at the Time Out Challenge page. This week we are joined by the wonderful Ksenija (who used to be my teamie over at AAA Challenges!) as our Guest Designer. Her cards are jaw dropping as always!
Hope you have a wonderful day all!

The bright colours you used are so fun – perfect with that bold scripty die cut! The DP stars are great too – I love how they add a splash of white against the bold bg!
oh wow. love how bright and cheerful this is-superb blending of the colours. What a cool idea to add these stars-the pattern is so much like the wall paper-super card x
Your card is absolutely stunning. I love the way you used bright colors, and those flowered stars are such fun.
Wonderfully vibrant, zesty and summery, Jenny … positively mouthwatering … and gorgeous! Hugs, Anita 🙂
I wrote and lost my comment – I love this. So many wonderful elements. I love your ecclectic style! Great colors. Love the flowery stars and that little black embossed sentiment strip. LOVE IT!
Wonderful way to be inspired by our photo… Sorry got commenting this late by the way! I’m soooo behind in visiting my DT friends, the last months of the spring where pretty hectic! Anyway, back to your card… I love how the colors in this are almost neon-like, so bright and vivid! Great card using dies, a lot of dimension happening here!
