more cards. So there are lots of things to show you over the next few weeks in my facebook lives on Mondays and Thursday.  So here's all the news in my Stamping World for you. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, and I hope to see you during one of my live stamping

Creative Inspiration
with a Colour CombinationHere's this month's colour combination: And here's the project it inspired:  The eclectic patterns in the Sunny Day 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper pack go beyond just coordinating with the Bright Skies Bundle. You can earn this useful DSP pack FREE during Sale-a-Bration!
This project used both sides of
one of the papers in the Sunny Day DSP pack. To make sure there was a panel of the raindrops pattern big enough for the bottom part of the card, that section of the DSP sheet was cut away first. Then the rest of the other side of the paper sheet was used to die cut the selected patterned clouds (in Pool Party and shades of Basic Black) using the two middle-sized cloud dies from the coordinating Bright Skies Dies. A cloud was also die cut from Shaded Spruce Cardstock using the larger of those two
cloud dies.
The die cut Pool Party patterned cloud element was adhered to the Shaded Spruce cloud, and both attached to the top of the raindrops patterned panel using Stampin' dimensionals. The smaller die cut Basic Black/Gray patterned cloud was adhered to the front overlapping both other clouds, again using Stampin' dimensionals. The sun image from the Bright Skies Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped using Crushed Curry Classic Stampin' Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and cut out using the
coordinating die. This was then slotted in between the Pool Party and Shaded Spruce cloud elements. The sides of the larger die cut clouds were trimmed to match with the width of the raindrops DSP panel and the whole panel adhered to a Smoky Slate folded card base, using Stampin' dimensionals to stabilise the tops of the cloud elements.
The sentiment was stamped on a rectangle of Basic White Cardstock using Crushed Curry Ink. This rectangle was attached to a thin strip of Shaded Spruce
Cardstock using Stampin' dimensionals, and both were adhered to the card front with Stampin' Seal. Pool Party Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots were added as the final embellishment.
 Shop the top product picks for this project: Not only can you save 10% by purchasing the Bright Skies Photopolymer Stamp Set and the coordinating Bright Skies Dies as a bundle, but by purchasing
this bundle your $60+ spend qualifies for a Sale-a-Bration item. That gets you the coordinating Sunny Days 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper FREE! Remember that this coordinating DSP is only available during Sale-a-Bration (ends 29th February), and only while supplies last. Have a wonderful weekend, and I hope to see you soon, In My Craft Room!
