Happy Monday, everyone! Time for some inspiration from the Challenge Team!
Shelly, Laura Jane, Katie and our challenge guest Kelly Szafron are here to share their takes on this month’s Waffle Flower Challenge! Join the fun by linking your projects to our August challenge too!
Shelly Kurth
Products:
Hibiscus Stamp Set
Leafy Stamp Set
Sentiments Die
Awesome Word Die
What Shelly Says:
I started with doing a little watercoloring for my background, using the Leafy Stamp Set. After, I used the Sentiments die and stamped on my sentiment pieces, using the Hibiscus Stamp Set. Then, I used the Awesome Word Die with silver glitter cardstock and white cardstock. Once done, I layered the die cut pieces together and added it to my card. To finish things off, I added a little bit of twine.
Laura Jane
Products:
Snail Mail Stamp Set
Flutter Stamp Set
Lacy Layers Die
Doily Square Die
Snail Mail Die
What Laura Jane Says:
I created a pattern background using the Snail Mail and Flutter Stamp Sets. Double stamping the butterflies for more interest. The Lacy Layers Die provided me with a sweet frame as well as the Doily Square Die. The coordinating Snail Mail Dies layered beautifully with the sentiment from the Lacy Flower Stamp Set.
Katie Gehring
Products:
Birthday Fishes Stamp Set
Birthday Fishes Die
What Katie Says:
For my card, I was definitely inspired by the nautical vibe in the inspiration photo, but went “under the sea" with the Birthday Fishes Stamp Set and coordinating dies. I used Salty Ocean Distress Ink spritzed with water and some White Linen Dylusions Ink Spray to create the backdrop for this fish party.

Products:
Little Mermaids Stamp Set
What Kelly Says:
I was inspired by the seaside feel to the room in the photo and the colors. I stamped the mermaids and starfish, colored them with Copics, fussy cut them and added Glossy Accents and Spectrum Noir glitter to them. For the background I sponged two shades of distress inks, splattered it with water, stamped the bubbles, painted the bubbles with water to lighten them and sprayed the piece with Shimmer Spritz. After adhering the sentiment, monkeys and starfish to the background and card base I added sequins and Nuvo glitter for more sparkle.
