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.

You're Amazing!!!

 Hey Crafty Friends!!!

I am just popping in with a card that I created for a challenge. I started school this week and only have time to craft on the weekend. It makes me so sad!!

I used this weeks sketch#338 from Sunday Stamps as the inspiration for my card. 

I used the sunflower from Spellbinders as the circle element on the sketch. I also replaced the bottom greenery from a sentiment from Concord & 9th. 

The embossing folder is Spellbinders Burlap. I just received it in the mail last week and had to use it!!!

The additional flower are from some that were left over from another project, as is the greenery at the top. 

That is all from me today. Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS night!!

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.
