Hello ~ The Card Concept

Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge over at The Card Concept challenge blog.   Our challenge is based on this gorgeous photo...

I was inspired by the colours and fall leaves when I created my clean and layered card.  These two sweet leaves were left over from a past project and I thought they'd be perfect to crown my sweet little chalkboard :)  I hope you'll head over to The Card Concept blog to see all the different interpretations from the Design Team then join in the fun!  Have a great day!

Joy

Hello friends, I'm back with my take on PTI's Make it Monday challenge.  We could either make a banner or use a banner on our card.  I chose to make a card.  I used a jumbo fishtail die to create my banner and then decorated it with Snowfall Style snowflakes and one of my favourite words, "joy."  Thanks for visiting :)

A Very Happy Birthday to You

Hello dear friends!  Thanks for stopping by to see my take on PTI's October Blog Hop challenge!  We are inspired by this lovely fall photo.

 I focused on the darling chalkboard and the fall colours.  Instead of pumpkins, I created flowers :)  Have a great day and enjoy the rest of the hop!

Congratulations!

Greetings friends!  I'm sharing a couple of cards I made for PTI's Transformation Tuesday.  I needed more baby cards in my stash so I created girl and boy cards using the same layout as the card I made for Make it Monday a few weeks ago.  If you look closely you'll see I used the negative die cut from the scarlet jewel leaf frame 2 cards below :)  I couldn't throw it away!

Here's the first card.

Thanks for visiting :)  Have a great week!

Happy Fall ~ The Card Concept #100

Greetings friends!  I have an exciting post today!  The Card Concept Challenge is celebrating Challenge #100 with past Guest Designers!  We are all inspired by this lovely fall photo...

Joy ~ Create Along with Us

Hello, friends!  In anticipation of PTI's Create Along with Us challenge, I made these 2 cards this weekend inspired by Melissa's gorgeous poinsettia card HERE. I used her colours, frame, and stamping ideas but used Painted Poinsettias.  I just love pink poinsettias :)  Here's the second card, exactly the same except I used a different sentiment from Bells and Boughs.

 Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have a wonderful week :)

Thank You Ever So Much

It was another fun morning in the studio today.  I try to treat myself on a long weekend and get in some inky time :)  I am embracing the gorgeous fall colours and PTI's Make it Monday challenge with this card.  I used my Text and Texture: Leaves stamp set for the first time and it did not disappoint!  It's hard to see all its beauty after die cutting this frame so I saved the inside die cut for another card :)   I cannot waste any of these gorgeous leaf images. Thanks for stopping by!

Thanks ~ Transformation Tuesday Challenge

It's our Thanksgiving Day long weekend here in Canada which means I had some inky time in the studio and got to play along with PTI's Transformation Tuesday challenge :)  For today's card, I used the same layout but different paper and dies to create a teacher card, my most favourite type of card to make :)  Here are the 2 cards side by side.

Thanks for visiting!

Hello!  Today I'm sharing my take on PTI's Make it Monday challenge to use packaging dies on a card.  I chose the tag Enclosed: Bell die to make this wedding card.  I kept everything in white with some shimmer paper and shimmer cardstock.  Thanks for stopping by!
