Trip to Cliff Resort



It is time to present my interpretation of this week's inspiration over at Inspired Crafters. You have to check it out. Jen has awesome inspiration for us to work with. I went with her catalog and how the photos were stacked together. I also took some of the colors in there for inspiration.

These are the pictures we took at Cliff Resort, here in Texas near Possum Kingdom Lake. It was just beautiful. This golf resort sits on a cliff facing the lake and is just gorgeous. Great Spa, Sunsets, Walks and wading in the lake. It was way too nice. I had fun reliving the memories of this trip while doing this LO.

Supplies:
Stamp - Studio G Stamp from Michaels
Paper - Coredinations CS, SU PP
Ink - Memento Black and Copics

Ippity Stamps and Sketches

I was playing around with the {ippity} Stamp set Because of You and these two sketches just called out for this flower stamp. Click Here if you are interested in buy this or some other {ippity} stamp sets.

1) Sketch Girl - Sketch #10

I used this flower image from the Because of You set and added some button to the center. I used this Lil Bloomer that my dear friend Sara had created and sent me some as RAK. And a small pink heart finished the card. I rotated the sketch :)



Here is the Sketch,



2) The second card was done for the Get Sketchy Challenge #21.

I used the same flower Image from Because of You set with some DCVW Glitter Papers. I colored the image with Copic Spica Glitter Pens.

Family in Orange Orchard

I did this layout for the Sketchy Thursday Sketch Challenge. I used this photo that we had taken in an Orange Orchard near Three Rivers, California. My Parents loved this whole concept of open Orchards and the long neat row of Orange Trees :) I used mostly My Minds Eye Papers for this Layout and some generic CS. I cut out the shaped image from Cricut Storybook Cartridge. It feels nice to be using Cricut again - I guess it is because I am doing lot more LO's now a days. I used felt thickers for the title. I took inspiration from the colors in the photo - Orange, green and browns for the colors of my layout.

Here is the sketch,



Supplies:
Stamp - None
Paper - My Minds Eye DP, Generic CS
Ink - None
Other - Prima Flowers, SU Large Oval Punch, Cricut Storybook Cartridge
