Triple Stamped Poppies

This is my second post for today.  Please scroll down for my first post.

Two challenges called for the Triple Stamping technique: SCS Technique Lovers Challenge and the Friday Mashup.  I used the colors from the Colour Me ... Striking Challenge:

I stamped the Technique Tuesday poppies onto the three sizes of cardstock with my MISTI tool.  I am really glad I got this tool - I needed to re-ink and re-stamp the image and the MISTI tool allows you to do this perfectly!  The poppies are colored with Copic markers.

Thanks for coming by!

This is for another Winnie & Walter 1st Birthday Bash Challenge:  Distress Inks and Patterns.  I used the January sketch from Happy Little Stampers:

I will also submit this card to the Friday Mashup Up:  

Create a project with a "Winter theme". 

Create a project  with "Snowflakes". 

or Mash it Up! and create a "Winter project with Snowflakes".

To create the "snowflake" I used the 2nd to the smallest solid row of chevrons image from Scenery: V for CheVron and stamped it using four different colors of Distress Inks.  The sentiment banner is from The Big, The Bold and Extras and the sentiment came from The Big, The Bold and Blessings and The Big, The Bold and Merry.  I love how all these sets work with each other!  The snowflake and sentiment banner are all one layer and I just trimmed around the banner using the out of the box technique.  I used a Sizzix embossing folder on the card front and adhered the stamped panel with foam tape.  I embellished with clear sequins.

Bokeh Thanks

I learned a new to me technique, Bokeh, from a video that Dawn from WPlus9 created.  It really is so easy to do.  Here is the video.  I used blue and green watercolors and created my own stencil with Spellbinders nested circles.  To make the Bokeh effect I used Colorbox Snow White pigment ink and a dauber to fill in the various size circles.  The sentiment is from Reverse Confetti and I embellished with MME enamel dots.
I am submitting this to the Friday Mashup:

I created this for several challenges:

Less Is More 161 - Yellow and Green
CAS(E) This Sketch
Little Red Wagon - Spring
The Card Concept - Floral Theme - Clean and Simple
The Friday Mashup - Spring Flowers
Virginia's View - Watercoloring
The Paper Players - Spring Thank You card
CAS On Sunday - Color Me Pretty - use markers, pencils....


This was also made for the SCS Inspiration challenge and Featured Stamper Challenge.

Wow I've never made one card for so many challenges before!  I colored this Rubbernecker 4 step stamping image with Distress markers, spritzed them with water and stamped them onto Tim Holtz Watercolor paper.  The sentiment is from Amuse.
The style of this card according to the Card Concept is CAS (Clean and Simple).  Here is their definition:

• One main image
• Lots of open space (uncluttered)
• Limited layers & embellishments
• Quick & easy to recreate
