NC Demos Blog Hop March 2020

Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop for March 2020! Here are the guidelines:

It is almost time to say goodbye to the 2018-2020 In Colors, so I thought this month we could share our In Color Monochromatic Masterpieces using our favorite retiring In Color.

Your project can ONLY use one of the retiring In Colors. You MAY use Whisper White or Vanilla cardstock and Black ink (Foil colors are ok too!). ALL other ink and cardstock MUST be your single retiring In Color.

So when Tracy & I got together, we decided to make one for each color!

~Enjoy!



Here is the collection and you can get the details for each card below!



Now go check out these other amazing projects!!

NC Demos Blog Hop March 2020 Blueberry Bushel

Blueberry Bushel is one of my favorite colors, I will be sad to see if go as part of the retiring 2018-2020 In-Colors. This month's NC Demos Blog Hop for March 2020 is dedicated to making a monochromatic card using our favorite retiring In-Color. Tracy & I did ours together, check hers out!

~Enjoy!



This card was inspired by a few things: a sketch challenge, use DSP & the Blog Hop challenge. I absolutely LOVE all of the paper & the cards I have made with the See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper. After I got done with this Tracy said it may have broken the monochromatic rules, but I think it still turned out really pretty!

The background is the front and back of one of the sheets from the See A Silhouette Designer Series Paper layered on a card base of Whisper White. It is topped off with a bow made from the Silver 3/8" Metallic-Edge Ribbon and  know of Whisper White Polka Dot Tuelle. The sentiment is stamped with Blueberry Bushel and Lilypad Lake Stamp Set. It is then cut with the Lakeside Dies layered on Blueberry Bushel.

For the card, I took the Delicate Lace Dies & cut the delicate flourish from a scrap, then laid it on the envelope & sponged Blueberry Bushel through the die. Even though it is floraly, it still give the same effect as the bold white lines of the card. Check out the whole collection!

#simplestamping with Seaside Notions

This month's Stampin' Up #simplestamping challenge is Birthdays! I always always needing birthday cards since I send out a LOT of birthday cards every month! Here is a #simplestampnig card I made for the challenge as well as the #casualstamper and #avidstamper versions.

~Enjoy!



I just love, love, love this little seahorse from the Seaside Notions Stamp Set, he is so super cute!!!! I knew he would make a really cute #simplestamping card. The card front is cut down to a 3 x 4.25 Whisper White piece. The seahorse is stamped in Night of Navy and is surrounded with a sea of seaweed from Sea of Textures and Balmy Blue, Seaside Spray and Soft Suede. The sentiment is stamped with Seaside Notions and Balmy Blue and the dots at the top are from Waterfront stamped in Seaside Spray. Isn't he sweet!


For the #casualtstamper I added a background strip of Soft Suede and a bow made from Night of Navy / Sahara Sand Baker's Twine.


I had all intentions of adding a ton of seaweed dies cuts from the Smooth Sailing Dies set, but once I added some Copper Thread and Copper Sequins and grabbed the Copper Glimmer Paper from Joyous Noel, it just did not look right with the Soft Suede strip stamped with the water lines from Lilypad Lake. So I just added some corner accents with the Glimmer Paper and filled in the void on the white background with some dots from Waterfront stamped in Seaside Spray.

Lilypad Lake Sketch Challenge

This is project #3 from my Crafting with Tracy. It seems like each time we have one that just kills us for the day, this is that one!

~Enjoy!


We chose a sketch challenge from Global Design Project, and Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue and Night of Navy as out color pallette. We also chose Lilypad Lake as the stamp set.


My card came together quite easily, while Tracy struggled with hers. Although to be fair, I cheated a little & moved my sentiment down on the card. I colored the sails with Stampin' Write Markers since it was such a small area to color. and all of the edges are roughed up with a scissor edge and the small squares and sentiment are lightly sponged with balmy blue. The sentiment is from my stash. The Baker's Twine also came from my retired Night of Navy twine, but the Whisper White baker's twine could easily be colored with the Night of Navy Blends Marker. Don't forget to go check out Tracy's card at Stuff-n-Thingz!
