Make It Monday #148 and Stamplorations

When I saw this weeks Make It Monday I first thought there is something wrong with my eyes....sorry, Dawn, but it just looked blurry to me...But then I gave it a try at home and I was thrilled to see the result! The topic is Generation Stamping with Line Images & Multiple Colors - and Dawn McVey is doing a great video about this over at Make It Monday with all the explanation you need!

I did not have any Papertrey stamps that I could use with this technique, so I took the diamond from the Hero Arts set So Kind for the generational stamping. I filled them with the little diamonds from the Happy Harlequin stamp set byPapertrey. The sentiment is Papertrey -  Cutting Garden.

I really love the result of it. It looks so much better in real life than on the picture. It has real dimension!

And then it inspired me to make a second card:

I used my brand new Stamplorations stamp sets - the generational stamping I did with the square from Patchwork Frenzy. The feather are from Trendy Feathers, as is the sentiment. 

The little squiggle I added from the Papertrey set Happy Trails. And of course - sequins..... I am just wondering what I did before sequins......

Do you see that there is text on the feather? That should qualify for the Keep it Simple challenge this month

The theme is TEXT!

And of course this card will participate in this month Stamplorations challenge - Stamps and feathers

One Layer Simplicity challenge - Restock your Shelves - can never have too many thinking of you cards - especially with Valentine's day around the corner
