Thank you Friend

Hello everyone, today's card was made for a friend of mine who I craft with weekly. I also made it for Splitcoaststampers Color challenge.

 

Love todays color challenge. I tried to find colors close to what was on the chart.
So for my dp I used Pebbles design paper that I had some pieces of.

 Next I airbrushed the CottageCutz Victorian Tea Pot using Copics/ E93,RV19,BG32,YG13. The Tea Pot is from The Scrapping Cottage Victorian Release, LOVE this release!

The bow was done with single faced satin, and the half rosettes were done with satin, and velvet. All Ribbon can be found at Really Reasonable Ribbon. I also made a leaf using satin as well.
Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!

Hugs to all,

Monochromatic Green for VO Challenge

Hello everyone, and Happy Monday!!

Today's card was designed for Victorine Originals Monochromatic Green Challenge that started today. We were to use only Green, and of course a neutral color to go with it. 

So I chose to use American Crafts/Pebbles Basic paper stack 12 x 12, for all the green design paper. The green card stock is also American Crafts and is from the Earth Tones Collection.I also used a white to layer with each green layer.Lastly I did add some green sewing to complete each layer.

For my Stamp I used Victorine Originals (2396-H) This is the Day the Lord Hath Made , such a beautiful stamp. I did color a bit with a Tim Holtz distress marker in a green.

Next I used some Really Reasonable Ribbon in Moss Green Gingham. LOVE the gingham prints in ribbon too! There are many colors to choose from at RRR, and you can find them all here.

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day! Hugs to all,

Next I decorated the front using CottageCutz dies, and the beautiful sentiment stamp is from Victorine Originals. Love their sentiments, as they have sooo many to choose from. 

The ribbon I used is from Really Reasonable Ribbon, its the blue satin with grosgrain edge. LOVE this its always been one of my favorites. For the Roses, these too were bought at the American Crafts Warehouse sale, and I got such an AWESOME deal on them!

I also used the NEW CottageCutz Garden Delight Bird Die, and colored it with copics. Its a CottageCutz Elite, so its 1 cut. super easy. Next I used the CottageCutz Tea Time Doily, and the darling Sweetheart Border!

CAS Moose

Hello everyone, today's card was designed for Victorine Originals CAS challenge with a Fall Theme. Of course I always have a difficult time with the CAS challenges....hehehehehe since I LOVE layers and love adding lots of goodies to my cards. However this one seemed to work well for me. I guess it had to do with the moose I used and the greenery! 

All I did for my card today was cut a 4 1/2 x 9 piece of card stock for the base of my card. Next I cut a 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 for the layer, and used a dp on that. I cut a small piece then cut it in half on the diagonal to place on the opposite corners before sewing. super simple!

Next I stamped my Victorine Originals  2727-J Moose in Craft Ink, and then added clear CIP's embossing powder to that. I heated it up, and then colored the image with copics. I used the spellbinders circles to cut out my image, and then stamped the 2956-J) Pine Branch greenery around the edges only.

Lastly I added some Really Reasonable Ribbon in Moss Diamond Satin, and a button tied with Hemp Natural, all of these can be found here at RRR

Hope you will join us for another super FUN challenge at VO!

Thank you for looking and have a lovely week!

Hugs to all,

Next I used the Fall Vines as layers for some greenery, I thought the owl would look cute over the distressed background. The "Owl always love you" sentiment is from Victorine Originals. I added some mini ric rac for a bow, and to wrap around my card front. the Hemp bow is natural hemp 20lb. Love the camping design paper from BoBunny it works perfectly for fall!
