Hi!
Tonight is the first Gina K CSS Alumni blog hop for September!If you came from Peggy's wonderful blog you are in the right spot! If you are just visiting or happened by, I encourage you to start at the beginning of the hop right here to see all the fabulous creations the gals are sharing tonight.
I will keep my post short and sweet so you can keep moving along :)
Tonight we all created projects using this photo from Pier 1 Imports for inspiration.
The first thing I noticed about the photo was the colors and the diamond pattern on the quilt and the headboard.My first card uses the diamond pattern and the colors Ocean Blue, White and Kraft Pure Luxury Papers.
The flowers and sentiment are from Gina's Enjoy the Sunshine stamp set. I stamps the flower and sentiment on Gina's Kraft paper with white ink. I added a bit of shading under the flowers with my white prisma pencil. I paired the kraft paper up with Gina's Ocean Mist.Card Supplies:
Stamps: GKD - Enjoy the Sunshine
Ink: PTI Fresh Snow
Paper: GKD Pure Luxury
Other: Pearls, Ribbon, Spellbinders - Rectangles & Ribbon Tags, Cuttlebug EF
For my second card I used the colors Pumpkin Spice, white and Turquoise Sea Pure Luxury Papers.
I used Gina's Friends are Forever stamp set. The flowers are colored with copics - YR12, YR14, YR18, Y17, YG63, E23, E25, BG0000. I added stickles to the petals for a bit of sparkle.The pattern papers are MME Stella Rose - Mabel.
Card Supplies:

Paper: GKD Pure Luxury, MME Stella Rose - Mabel

Both cards are beautiful! Love the bright colors of your second card!
Great cards, Sharri. I love the detail of the second card.
Beautiful matting on your first card. I love the colors and the second card is so sweet. The stickles give those sweet flowers an extra dimension that is eye catching!
Beautiful cards Sharri! I really like the second one, I am so drawn to the orange/turquoise combo lately.
Darlin' cards Sharri! The blue and brown and blue combo of the first with the textured background is just a beautiful combination. The second is just a shabby chic beauty!
Love both cards Sharri!
Beautiful cards. Thank you so much for sharing with us!
Both cards are just so beautiful.
Both of your cards are beautiful, Sharri! Love the simplicity of the first one and the orange flowers on the second one are stunners!
I love them both oh so pretty
Sharri, both cards are beautiful, but that second card just grabs me!
Both are so gorgeous Sharri! I really love the kraft one...who would have guessed THAT!? haha!
Both are very, very pretty. The second one makes me think of sitting at my grandma's kitchen table with fresh baked cookies.
Sharri- Great job on both, but the second one really speaks to me- love everything about it!
They are both wonderful cards, so different, but the inspiration is evident. Great work!
Sharri they are both great cards but the second one really pops for me!
Pretty flowers on both cards!!
Both cards are great, but I have to say I'm partial to the second one as well. Both catch the feeling of the room really well.
Loved your first card until I saw your 2nd card.....GORGEOUS!!
Both gorgeous, Sharri! I love how different they are! One is soft and subtle, the other bright and happy! They are both fabulous interpretations of this inspiration photo!
Sweet samples Shari.
