Spring Color Inkspiration # 2

Gratuitous baby photo bragging opportunity, or color challenge -- YOU DECIDE!

It's that time again!! This week the inspiration came from an outfit I bought for the baby (THANK YOU CARTERS). I just love the colors that were in the plaid fabric . . .

I can't believe how big he is getting. Can you say SUPER CHUNKY MONKEY??? But honestly, how can you not just ADORE this kid with his cute smile???

YOUR COLORS:
Taken With Teal
Green Galore
Soft Sky
Always Artichoke
(used sparingly)

Happy Stamping!!! Please feel free to link your creations below in the comments section of this post. I will be drawing from the uploaded cards (using the keyword ACI - for Amanda's Color Inkspiration) on SCS monthly, and will be sending out fun blog candy (yet TBD). Oh and tell your friends -- this will now be a weekly thing here . . . I thought it would be fun to have color inkspiration challenges every Thursday, because I always need something to help me make it through to the weekend, so check back for another one next week.

who needs to make a card..when youve got that adorable little munchkin to love and cuddle with!
Why do I have this urge to reach through the screen and pinch those cute little cheeks?

What a little cutie!

Color challenge? I was taken by that smile. I can't believe how much he's grown since I saw him at CHA! What a cutie!

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).

(SSD06) and BLOG HOP

Hey guys! Happy 2010! I was so not ready for vacation to be done when I had to send my kids back to school yesterday! *sad face* We had such a fantastic break! Guess what though? Lots of fun stuff for you today! First, HAPPY 8th ANNIVERSARY TO MY CUTE, CHARMING, and WONDERFUL husband! I am seriously the luckiest woman! He is so good to me and makes me laugh and smile! We've grown so much together in 8 years and being my opposite he has taught me a lot and for that I will forever be grateful! *tears* I can hardly believe how fast the time has flown by. I am excited for the years to come. ********** Enough sappy Manda, introducing the Skipping Stones Design Blop Hop .

HANNA PREVIEW: Vintage Toys & A Color Challenge For YOU

This set is a lot of fun! It has SO many possibilities -- birthdays, Christmas, new baby . . . AWESOME! I made a couple cards to show you with it. The first one uses the adorable bear in it. I instantly thought of a baby card when I saw this guy (who knows why I have babies - specifically baby boys on the brain - only 11 weeks left *giggles*). I used a sketch from Limelight Papercrafts (Sketch #4) to create the layout of this card! Both of these two cards also work perfectly for today's challenge on Hanna Stamps (Create a card or item using 2 or more embellishments). This card uses ribbon, sewing machine stitching and buttons. Stamps : Vintage Toys (Hanna Stamps), Karen Foster Design Snap Stamps (Small Casual) Paper : Lily Kate (Basic Grey), Bashful Blue (SU!), Certainly Celery (SU!), Whisper White (SU!), Neenah Solar White Ink : Onyx Black Versafine, Colorbox Pigment Brush Pad - Frost White Accessories : clear embossing powder, white gel pen, copic markers, white bu...
