Wednesday Wanderings

 

Hello Wednesday, nice temps in our area; not too seasonal!  Today's card share is one created using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card sketch #276.  I used some Echo Park pattern paper, a Pretty Pink Posh Fall basket die set.  Finished by adding a CTMH stamped sentiment and  a few enamel dots.  I also shred this card for the 2Crafter1Design challenge over on IG, their theme for last week was pumpkins.

Thank you for your visit, take care and hurry back soon.

Hello Autumn

 Hello and happy Thursday, doing a quick drive by post to share another Fall themed card.  I created this card using sketch inspiration from Try a Sketch on Tuesday challenge #657 and some papers from an older Simple Stories pad that I am trying to finish using. I added just one metal leaf brad as this is one of those projects where the paper does all the work!

Thank you for your visit, take care and hurry back again soon.

Tuesday Musings

 Hello and happy Tuesday, mild temps in today's forecast. Doing a quick drive by post to share a card created as part of a swap that I spent the weekend finishing.  The theme was Fall and I used my postage stamp die as my focal point. I had mixed feelings about some of the cards that I created but I really liked this one!  I did some inking, stamping, die-cutting and added some Recollections fabric flowers.  

I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes monthly challenge over at A Cut Above, challenge #177 over at Double Trouble and the October Anything Goes challenge over at Cards Galore.

Hello and happy Friday, seasonal temps in our area today.

Today I'm back tto share my design team project for Cut it Up, the theme for challenge #159 is Just in CASE, case another crafter's project.  I had a hard time trying to decide what to do for this challenge. So I finally decided to make a card; my project is Pinterest inspired and can be found here:

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/52424783140689449/

The original card used acorns but I decided to use leaves on my card. For my project,  I chose to use the Fall Leaf Party Pennant  from My Scrap Chick along with some pattern paper from the Craft Smith Pumpkin Spice paper pad, some twine and stickles.  I used my Cameo to cut the pennant and the Winter Wonderland Cricut cartridge to cut the word greetings.

Now that you've seen my project I hope you'll head on over to the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration and decide to CASE and share a project for a chance to win a $20 store credit from My Scrap Chick.   The challenge starts today and ends on Wednesday, October 31, 2018 at noon EST.
