This is happiness!

So I'm trying to incorporate some autumn cards since that's the season USA is experiencing even though I'm loving spring here :)

I utilised a patterned paper from My Mind's Eye Bright Side and used a dauber to distress Wild Honey for my stencil. I used one of the stencils from Prima that looked like a pumpkin with vines... Well that's what it looked like to me :) I then adhered the panel, which is about 1/8" smaller all round, to a base of natural cardstock measuring 3 1/4 by 4 inches. I stuck on a diecut embellishment from Jessica Swift Blomma.


The leaves and sentiment are from Kelly Purkey's Thankful stamp set. The leaves are in Hero Arts Pumpkin Pie, Just Rust and Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn inks and were then handcut out. The banner is also stamped using Pumpkin Pie and the sentiment is in Versafine Onyx Black. To finish off I added some brown stitching.
Hope u liked the card!

Share the Love Week!! - Day 5 Sketch Sentiment - Entry 1


I'm back with the Day 5 entry which is a card based on the following sketch:


This was a really nice challenge, I even created something similar not too long back...see post here.

I started with a top folded white base measuring 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 inches and a white panel of 3 1/2 by 4 3/4 inches. The two patterned papers are from Basic Grey Mellow paper pad. For the panel I die cut a vinyl stencil of the word HELLO from W&W and then distressed with Walnut Stain around the sentiment. Thereafter I stamped images from Papersmooches Botanicals 2 stamp set using Hero Arts Just Rust and Wet Cement.



I stamped the WONDERFUL FRIEND from SSS YOU stamp set also using Walnut Stain. To finish off I added some green sequins and Liquid Pearls in Dark Chocolate.

NOTE: I'm also entering this into the Day 2 of Share the Love Week for the 10min dash and Inspiration Emporium September Monthly Challenge 2014.
