TO #69 - Grateful for You, Nothing Is Impossible

Made a little card, well actually two since I used the leftovers!  The first one fit nicely into the current challenge at Time Out - Give Thanks with a Grateful Heart!  I started with a watercolor panel using Peerless. A maple leaf and sentiment were stamped in gold then clear embossed, kind of hard to photograph but quite easy to see IRL.  So here's the first card...

And a second card, that doesn't fit into the challenge but was made with the leftovers.  Plus, since I've never made a shaker card...

As I mentioned, this was the leftovers from the die cut panel.    I kinda like it although the Flower Soft inside the panel doesn't move as much as I'd like, probably due to being so lightweight.  Lesson learned... 

So, the first goes over to:

FMS260, SS Wed, CTS #196 - Mr and Mrs

Made a little card for a wedding, a water colored panel with several layers to get deeper colors.  I had the die cut heart left from another project so I wanted to use it and accent the deep blue.  It was heat embossed with a couple layers of silver ep.  I also embossed the sentiment, added a couple sequins and the silver ribbon.

I love the sparkle of the silver ep!  An inside sentiment was added in the same distress ink used for the watercolored panel.

I'll send this over to Freshly Made Sketches using this sketch (which I flipped on the long edge), and SS Wednesday: Anything Goes, (minus LF), Case This Sketch #196 (lowered and flipped)

Fusion - Soft & Subtle

Hello, hello! Long time no see?  Well I seem to work "in spurts", I have a few cards but I'll keep it to one for this post!  This one went to my step-mom, and it's in her hands so it's all clear...  

I'll enter this over at Fusion.  I got my inspiration from this, it's quite pretty, I used both the sketch and the photo.

Have Faith!

Hello, Friends!  I've made another card and it's hopefully in the hands of the recipient by now.  This one's a little different for me but here it is!

I started with some new Brushos, sprinkled onto some Bristol paper, spritzed with water and let them do their thing!  After drying, I cut it into an oval, cut the branch and spritzed it with glimmer mist and set that aside to dry.  I stamped VersaMark onto a small piece of deep purple cs, heat embossed with silver, then cut a slice of gray cs a little larger, adding fishtails to it.  Some sprinkles were placed onto the flower centers.  Here's a close -up, wishing you could see the glimmer mist better!

Since the days have been a little gray off and on, the picture doesn't do this justice, but hopefully you'll get it idea...  Hmmm another watercolour that isn't Autumn! I'll make it into that challenge one of these days...

Sentiment Backdrops ala Jennifer McGuire

I saw this on Jennifer McGuire's blog, and knew I had to try it!  She made hers one layer by using the right cs -- I however did not so my panels are added onto a card base but I love the technique!  Here are my two...

Just a little appreciation, and thinking of you...
