Sincere Autumn

 

I absolutely LOVE fall/Autumn!!!! Beautiful colors everywhere! So Thankful for fall and for Thanksgiving! I created this card for my family/friends for Thanksgiving (so made 20 cards)!

I used a stylus on the sentiment piece to make it 'pop'. AND... the sentiment is from the 'So Sincere' stamp set. I just placed tape over the words I didn't want then stamped it on Very Vanilla cardstock.

Thanks for taking a peek!

Veterans Day 2023

 


I'm always thankful for the Veteran's in my life, so each year I design a card for Veterans' Day and give it to my Dad, my Father-in-law, my Brother, my Brothers-in-law and a friend. Their service to our country means that I have the freedom that I enjoy now! Thanks to them and all service members that have served!
I used My Memories Suite digital software to create the sentiment... everything else is paper and die-cuts. I did add a touch of 'Wink of Stella' to the stars to make them shine.

Thanks for today so that we could honor those who served!

Supplies Used:
My Memories Suite digital software
Fonts - Haettenschweiler (red); Good Vibrations (blue)
Paper - Night of Navy, Basic White, Real Red DSP
Accessories - Stampin' Trimmer, Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine, Stitched Nested Labels dies, Stitched Stars dies (non-SU), Daffodil Delight Grosgrain Ribbon, Wink of Stella, dimensionals, glue dots

Rustic Happiness

 


Playing with my 'Rustic Crate' stamp set today. I paired it with the sentiment from the 'Happiness Abounds' stamp set. Could be a masculine or feminine card here. 

I used the color combo - Pretty Peacock, Copper Clay, Wild Wheat and Old Olive.
I used 'Wink of Stella' on the plants to make them shine.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

DSP Greetings




I'm a bit late for the September Stampin' Up Challenge that was posted on facebook. But, the fun thing is that I can still utilize this sketch whenever I want to! I chose a basic - different DSP (Designer Series Paper) for the challenge (retired paper too!).

The sentiment is from the 'Go To Greetings' stamp set and I used the 'Seasonal Labels' dies to tie it all together!
Thanks for dropping in!
