Grateful for You (Thanksgiving card)

Hello and welcome to the post for today where I did use two discontinued products but I'm sure you can find the same types of dies and stamps in your stash. I'm still working on Holiday cards for the Thanksgiving season and today's card uses dies from Makers Mart DOM Sep17 and some ink for the edges along with the two-tone greeting. The "For You" is from the SU Crazy About You stamp set.This card took a little more time to create with all the die-cutting, which is a great way to use up your scraps, but I love how it turned out.
Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think.

Supplies:

Additional supplies: Fun Foam,    Spellbinders DOM-Sep17,  Celebrate Everyday



1.       Create a card base from Whisper White card stock to measures 4 ¼” x 11” and score at 5 ½”. 
2.       Die cut the wreath from Old Olive card stock and adhere to the front of the card using Fine-tip glue pen.
3.       Die-cut the various leaves using Hello Honey, Tangelo Twist and Blackberry Bliss card stocks.  Adhere the leaves around the wreath using Fine-tip glue pen and then adhere the acorns made with Crumb Cake card stock and sponged with Soft Suede ink on top,  in the center of the leaf clusters using a mini glue dot.
4.       Die-cut the Grateful sentiment from both Whisper White card stock and white Fun Foam.  Cover the bottom of the die with post-it tape and sponge on Soft Suede ink to the top of the sentiment and adhere the two pieces together.  Adhere the sentiment across the center of the wreath and then stamp for rest of the sentiment with Tangelo Twist ink as shown on the project.
5.       Sponge the edge of the card front with Hello Honey ink.
6.       For the inside of the card cut a 4” x 5 ¼” panel of Whisper White card stock and sponge the edges with Hello Honey ink.  Stamp the Sentiment using Soft Suede ink in the center of the panel.  Use some of the extra leaves from the front of the card to adhere around the sentiment inside.

Hang Your Stocking Christmas card 7-28-19

Hello crafters and welcome to some Christmas inspiration on the blog today. I am in the process of using up my stash and making as many cards as possible before the hustle bustle of the season begins. The card for today features the Hang Your Stocking stamp set and Festive Farmhouse DSP (designer series paper). I stamped the stocking and the sentiment using Cherry Cobbler ink and then stamped the snowflakes with VersaMark ink and heat set with some silver embossing powder. I love how this card came out and more inspiration is on the way. Take a look at the project below and please let me know what you think. Supplies used: . I also popped up the focal image using Scotch 3M Foam tape. I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often for more inspiration. Thank you for visiting.

Graceful Garden friendship card

Here's my second card for the weekend. I just can't stop with the butterflies and I wanted to feature the ink colors in a clean and simple card. Sequins just had to be added for a little sparkle. The colors I used will be retiring soon so if you like them go and grab then while you can. I hope you'll take a look at the project below and let me know what you think. Supplies:
