Delicate Dahlia

 Hello,

This is the first time I've inked up the Delicate Dahlia stamp set. 

I chose to make a thank you card, layering the dahlia flowers around the sentiment. I stamped the sentiment on the cardstock first then fussy cut 5 dahlias and adhered them to the edge of a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of cardstock and trimmed away the excess. The flowers are popped up on dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Biggest Wish stamp set. 

Until next time.

Misty Moonlight meets Harvest Meadow

 I love SU’s Misty Moonlight. It’s perfect for feminine or masculine cards. For this card Misty Moonlight card stock is the base for Harvest Meadow DSP. I didn’t want the DSP to be the focal point so I softened the look with some vellum cut from the Color and Contour scalloped dies.  Now the focal point is the sentiment and the stamped flower from Flowering Blossoms. Don’t you just love the little bee embellishment?

Until next time….

Pretty Pumpkins

 What's your favourite time of year? Mine is autumn. I love the changing of the leaves 🍁and definitely cooler temperatures (it's so hot right now I feel like I am melting when I go outside). I also like shopping in home decor stores browsing all their autumn items on display...scented candles, door wreaths and a plethora of pumpkins in all colours and shapes. I love the soft pastel coloured pumpkins and was delighted when a few years ago I found real ones at my local grocery store. So in honour of the upcoming change in seasons, here are a couple of autumn themed cards featuring pastel pumpkins.

Along with the Pretty Pumpkin bundle I used Colour and Contour scalloped dies. The designer series papers from Pattern Party and Bloom Where You're Planted  round out these 5 ½ x 4 ¼ thank you card.

Until next time, keep calm and carry on crafting!

Bouquet

 Hello,

I am straying away, just a bit, from Stampin' Up to bring you this card.

While the paper and sentiment die cut are from Stampin' UP the floral inlay is called Bouquet from Tim Holtz.

Enjoy your day. Until next time.
