Autumn Wishes

Just came by to quickly post a CAS card I made today. My paper looks white but it is vintage cream. I do like cream more for Fall cards. Guess it had a mind of its own and knew what it wanted to look like.


I'm entering my cards into these challenges:
Seize the Birthday-Anything Goes Birthday-masculine or feminine
Great Impressions-Theme challenge is Fall colors (yes, that is PTI vintage cream with the embossing, although it is looking white after photo was made) Ugh!
Inspired by Stamping Customer Gallery---September
Simon Says Monday Challenge--From dry embossed paper to creating a resist effect with clear embossing powder, extra fine embossing powder to melted UTEE in a pot--so many ways....

Vicky, at CCEE Stampers, gave us the challenge this week to do a Fall/Thanksgiving card. I got out an image I haven't used this season and just added just a tinge of color for contrast and let it be. I rather like it. I stamped a few dots and the sentiment, added a ribbon and it's finished.  Oh, and I do love this  designer paper.

We would love for you to join us this week. Just add your card with our inlinkz tool.

I'm entering my card into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge which is Thanksgiving or Thank You.

Fall Birthday Card and A Winner





I have a friend having a birthday this month and I wanted to  make a card similar to what I thought she would make. Well, that is quite impossible. If you know Carol at Chocolate Crafts and Bears, Oh My, then you know that is quite a big job. Wow! Can she ever make a super card and so many other crafty things. Take a look. I took my idea from this card of Carol's because I had an image a bit like hers, also a punch like hers.

 

Carol likes a lot of sparkle and gemstones on her cards so I tried to do that, too. I colored my image with Copics and sponged around it. My recipe is below.

 

NOW, it is time to announce the winner of my blog candy. Thanks to everyone who joined in  and the winner is ..............................
