Bubble Over for Inspire. Create. Challenges

Hello!
And it's time again for another challenge with Inspire. Create. Challenges.
We really hope you are finding these challenges a great push off point for creating something each fortnight, I love a good challenge and often when I have "lost my mojo" I turn to a challenge to just get me started. We'd love if you gave it a go too.
OK, so for week #18 we have a theme challenge...

Now, I'll be 100% honest (as always) and say I was not too sure what to make with this theme. I was thinking about it while I was at work the other evening and when I got home I remembered I had used this set during the day for a commission and it was a complete lightbulb moment and well,  it all just came together really easily after that! I'm super pleased with the retro, beer garden feel of this card!
I used Daffodil Delight and a little of the the new colour Grapefruit Grove (available now in the "Share What You Love" early release) to create this starburst effect...

I added wink of stella to the bottles at the very end of making this card, after sponging and stamping bubbles on them already. But, again being totally honest, I would probably not do this if I made this card again. It looked better before *-* although I don't think it looks so bad that I had to remake it.

Please also note that this Bottles and Bubbles is carrying over into the new catalogue (yay) but not as a bundle. So, if you'd like to take advantage of the extra 10% off (making it just £36 for both the stamps and dies) then please order before the end of May.

I used some of my champagne foil paper to make the bottle tops, both on the bottles and at the bottom of the card.

So, if you'd like some more "sunshine" inspiration then please do head over to the ICC blog HERE and see what creative ideas the other DT members have to share.
We hope you have a go at this challenge and share your makes with us on the blog :-)
Thanks for looking here today!

Using SU! Perfect Mix Stamp Set with a FREE Ribbon Layering Photo Tutorial

Hello!
I have another card today using the Perfect Mix stamp set. This time I used the images in the set to create a background which I watercoloured in pastel colours using my SU! ink pads for what I think is a very 50's vintage feel, take a look....

 Again I stamped with Memento ink on shimmer white card to watercolour.
I was inspired by some spatulas I have here at home in these colours ;-)

 I have seen this ribbon effect a lot in SU! catalogues so I wanted to give it a go but I found it to be a little fiddly so I decided to make a little tutorial for you sharing an easy way of creating this effect, please scroll down!

 This is how I added the ribbon effect behind the sentiment on this card!

 and one final photo for today :-)

So, I hope you enjoyed todays card and little tutorial? Let me know if you have a go!

Using Perfect Mix and Love Sparkles for a Retro Pastel Card

Hello there,
 I have been looking at this stamp set - Perfect Mix - for a little while as it does appeal to my love of all things vintage and of course, punny! So I finally succumbed and purchased it and made this card with the cute mixer from the set....

 I watercoloured the mixer with Blushing Bride and Wisteria which followed through to the rest of the card.

 Those sweet little stars in the background are from Love Sparkles...

 ...and I finished todays card with some matching sequins from my stash and a lovely enamel heart in Blushing Bride too.

So, I do hope you have enjoyed today's card?
