Clean slate!

 Hi friends!

Today I'm sharing 2 cards with a common theme:

clean slate!

This two-fer set is for an Instagram Friday card group

where we create a card/project with a theme.

I was going for a black chalkboard look

with inspiraitonal messages design to motivate .... ME!

Sort of :)

I am donating these cards but the inspiration is encouragement.

2026 is a year of making plans, meeting goals and

 making. stuff. happen!

My daughter and I are planning a marathon this year

and I've been doing mini-runs to train and prepare.

In fact, I'm signed up for a few 5K's - one next week.

Running all the way into a donut shop is more my jam

but I'm behavin'!

But I digress!

My cards are using alcohol inks in one of my FAVE color combos.

I paired it with black and white for contrast since these colors

are so vibrant and in-yo-face!

The sentiments are from a TH pack and I chose ones that

go along with the themes of new year's goals.

That's it for today's post!

Thanks for stopping by!

Rainbow Palette with Whimsy Stamps!

 Hi friends!

Today I'm sharing a rainbow themed card 

where the requirements are MOSTLY white 

with a splash of rainbow somewhere on the card.

I am delighted to use the Paint and Palette die set

from Whimsy Stamps.

I wanted SO BADLY to add splatters and splotches

but it's not in the allowed parameter's of the card so ...

next time!

Products used:   Paint and Palette die set

Painter Panda (sentiment)
