Samantha‘s “dies only” design is perfect for summer! It features Flamingo Floatie and a punny Henry’s ABCs greeting!


Samantha used white cardstock to die cut all the pieces for the Flamingo Floatie and the Stitched Pond. Then she used Distress Inks to add all the color!

Concrete surround pool – Vintage Photo and Fossilized Amber
Pool – Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Peacock Feathers, Salvaged Patina
Flamingo – Dried Marigold, Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed


She added dimension and interest with splatters of ink and water! She popped up to “pool deck” and then added the Henry’s ABCs on foam tape, following the curve of the pool.


As a final super fun feature, Samantha popped the floatie up on an Action Wobbler to make this adorable card interactive!

Thank you so much for inspiring us today, Samantha! Your card is brilliant!

Catherine designed a beautiful party with a sewing theme! This is perfect inspiration for your next party and a great way to think outside the birthday card for the “All Things Birthday” challenge!


Catherine designed this party with pretty pastels based on the Flower Market papers! For the banner she used Stitched Party Banners, Fancy Scalloped Circles and Louie’s ABCs.


For the cupcakes she used more Flower Market papers for the Stitched Scalloped Cupcake Wrappers. Then she added coordinating toppers with Scalloped Circles, Fancy Scalloped Circles and cute images from Sew Very Mice and Sewn with Love!


Who could resist this amazing party invitation? Catherine began with a Fancy Scalloped Rectangle, then she layered on Sunburst Backdrop. She created a fun shaker element with Embroidery Hoop which is the perfect place to add the party theme! I love how she included the party particulars in the Sew Very Mice embroidery hoops, that is just so clever!

Thank you so much for this brilliant party inspiration, Catherine! Such a fun party idea!

It’s the last weekend for this challenge and Karin has some super fun inspiration for you! She says, I am Swedish, and I think Lapland with the Sami people, the Nordic light and the vast plains, the mountains and the reindeer are unique.


Karin created the mountains and the reindeer using Over the Mountain Borders. She used Distress ink to create the Northern Lights, then she used the stitched rectangle from Window Scene: Spring to frame her scene.


Next, she added the deer from Ugly and Bright, using Copic markers for the colorful sweater. Then she die-cut Henry’s ABCs to spell her country, giving the letters a pretty ombré look!

Your design is so much fun, Karin! Thank you for sharing your inspiration with us!

Remember it’s the last weekend for this challenge! We will be back on Monday with fresh, new inspiration for you!
