Fall Cards

 Happy Saturday!

Just popping in with some cards that I created using a mixture of old and new products created for some challenges. 

I had fun creating this using a bunch of stuff from my stash. I used this weeks Freshly Made Sketches #703 and the Inspired By #353 Challenge as my inspiration.

The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp!, and the embossing folder is Falling Leaves from Spellbinders.

My second card I used this weeks Color Throwdown #840 and CAS on Friday#317-Fall.

I had fun using the Postage Stamps Folder and Dies from Spellbinders.

Once again I used the same embossing folder by Spellbinders. The ginkgo leaves are from The Greetery. 

I ink blended the leaves with Distress Ink in Mustard Seed and Peeled Paint.

My last card I created because I had extra ginkgo and the rectangle frame on my desk.

The sentiment is from PinkFresh Studio. The pattern paper is from Newton's Nook.

Not sure I like the orange paper for my sentiment but the other colors I tried just didn't look great. This was the best of the worse.

Well, that is all from me today. Thank you for taking the time to stop by.

A NEW Challenge-Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #625

Hello Friends!!!

Today I am popping in with a card for the NEW round of the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!! Challenge #625 is a COLOR challenge-PASTEL COLORS. I am not going to lie, this was a tough one form me. I rarely use pastel colors and do not have too many of them.

I dug out my Spellbinders Fresh Picked Anemones dies that I have had in my stash but never used. I die cut the flower from pastel yellow and orange scraps and the leaves from a pastel yellow/green scrap of cardstock.

I adhered the flowers to an A2, kraft card front that I covered with a panel that I had embossed with the Honey Bee Linen Embossing folder. I could have used a pastel but thought the kraft looked better with the lighter colors. The struggle for me was real!!

I then used foam adhesive to adhere a sentiment from Simon Says Stamps CZ Designs Good Vibes stamp/die set. My last step was to adhere pastel yellow gems across the card front.
