Autumn Splendor Card Selection

Hello there fellow crafters and stampers!

 

I have been away from crafting for many months now because of life's little circumstances, but here I am today with some Autumnal gems!

My Aunt Tamy ran out of cards recently, so in an effort to keep her supplied, I created these seasonal beauties!

Enjoy!

 

 

 

Hope you love the colors and textures of Fall as much as I do! I have many gorgeous project ideas running through my mind, and I hope to transfer them to paper soon!

I might make more cards along the lines of these that I have shared today....I need to finish off that paper pack! ha!

 

Until next time.....have a creative day!

SS8 Challenge- A2 Cards for Purple Roses Box

Hi!

I finished the cards for the purple rose box I created for the Sisterhood Sundays Challenge #8.

 I thought I might link them up to the challenge as well, since they took me an extra 2 days to finish. I hope it's allowed by the challenge! :)

They turned out wonderfully!

This time, for the blossoms I used the Floral Fusion die from SU, crumpling and distressing the petals with Pale Plum ink. This makes them a bit more mailable than those Spiral Blossoms from Spellbinders!

All of the cards are the same inside:

Sorry about the bad lighting! It is getting dusky out now.

Here is another look at the box I created for the A2 cards:

I have decided to give this set of cards to my Aunt Tamy. She is the sweetest woman you could ever meet, always there for you, always smiling. I know this set will touch her heart!

Here is the inspiration peice from Sisterhood Sundays once more, so gorgeous! I know I will use it again and again!

Okay! Hope you enjoy them! Thanks for taking a look!

Have a wonderfully crafty weekend!

D2D Big Surprise Bear Get Well Card

Hello!

Happy Tuesday!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Delightfully Digital Challenge and party this last weekend! I had fun talking with all of you, and checking out the creativity! I can't wait to do it again next month! It really is a lot of fun giving away free digital stamps!!

I made this card for my neighbor, who requested a bright and cheery card for her grandmother who had hip replacement surgery recently. She also wanted the card to convey her sympathy and well wishes.

I chose the D2D digi 'Big Surprise Bear' because he looks so shy and concerned, like we would feel visiting someone in the hospital. And he brought flowers too! :)

I watercolored him with SU! markers and a water brush, then popped up a second layer for poshness!

I left the inside blank so that my neighbor could fill it with love and get well wishes.

She loved it! I hope her grandmother does too!

That's all I've got for you today!

Have a good one!

Sherrie

KWerner's Reader's Choice Color Inspiration No. 3

Hey there!

Jumping in today with my {first ever} card for a KWerner Color Inspiration Challenge!

I am so excited, especially since the colors are my favorite!!

The card is what I call a 'Matchbook' card. The bottom is flapped upward like a book of matches!

The image is from the Designed2Delight Digital Stamp Shop, and it's called 'May Flowers'. I love it, and it was perfect for this color combo. It is printed on watercolor paper, and watercolored with dye inks and my water brush.

I pierced holes along the edge of the image mat, and stitched organza ribbon through, trying to be unique. :)

The fabric flowers were a great find in my stash, and suited the card wonderfully! And, of course, gorgeous pearls! I just can't get enough!!

Well, I hope you've enjoyed my card today! I love the way it turned out!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hope your day is busy and creative!
