Simple Red, White, and Blue Scene – CIC #572

Hello friends! Today I’m so excited to announce that I will be joining the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge team! A ‘sweet’ challenge blog where we use cupcakes to inspire our creations!

For this week’s new challenge, the theme is red, white, and blue.

I first started by creating a scene fit for a rainy day. I used Lost Shadow Distress Oxide and the Lawn Fawn Cloudy Stencil for the sky. Salty Ocean, Faded Jeans Distress Oxide, along with Simon Hurely’s Scene Maker stencil for the grass. To go over the top of my outdoor scene, I attached a panel of cardstock with a circle cut-out using foam tape.

I stamped an image from the Hello Bluebird Rain or Shine Stamp set and coloured it using the following Ohuhu alcohol markers:

• Reds: R8, R2, R1, RV260, RV270
• Blues: B2250, B250, B220
• Greys:CG2, CGII00

I used the coordinating die set to die-cut some clouds that would go along with the scene.

I chose a sentiment from the Hello Bluebird Big Hugs Woodland Stamp set to match the theme of this card.

Be sure to check out the amazing inspiration from the rest of the Design Sweeties for challenge #572 and to submit a red, white, and blue card for a chance to be featured as a Sweet Pick!

Thanks for reading. Catch ya next time!
