Autumn Days

 Our cardmaking group had an Autumn card swap and this is the card I sent to the one of the girls. I cut the leaf background die from Pattern paper and then did some inking of it. I found this sentiment in one of my ephemera packs that I thought was perfect for the theme, I popped it up and then added some diamond dots all around. I thought the card base was just a little to white so I inked around the edges also.

• Photo Play - Autumn Junque Epehemera
• Tutti Designs - Maple Vine Frame die cut from pattern paper and inked
• Recollections - Garden harvest paper for the leaf die
• Diamond dots

You can see the diamond dots a little better in the close up.

I would like to share my card today with the following challenges:

Bling

 When I saw Simon Says Wednesday Challenge Bling it on Challenge the first thing that came to mind is my Diamond Dots cards, they are full of bling :)

It won't be long until everyone of my friends will have received one of these cards :)

The dragonfly I think is my favorite, but the butterfly isn't to far behind :)

These are both from Craft Buddy- Crystal Art Cards.

In the woods

 I know it is hard to believe that not every guy has had a card from this set but I did have another nephew that hadn't had a card made with this Heartfelt creations set.  I did not use any stamps this time, all this was from the paper pack. I fussy cut the squirrel and popped him up with some foam tape. I did the book binding fold for this card, you can see it better in the close up picture. I used photo corners on the main image.

• Heartfelt Creations - Woodsy Wonderland 12x12 Paper pack, squirrel and sentiment have been popped up

I would like to share today's card with The Paper players Challenge Use Plaid

Sending Caring thoughts

 For a friend who needs a lift me up. Used some pretty ephemera, stamped sentiment that I fussy cut. Added a little gel pen to the black heart and a piece of scrap paper from my bin for the background.

• Simple Stories - Simple Vintage, Timeless Harmony Ephemera and Journal bits
• The Greetery - Thinking of you sentiment stamp set
• white gel pen on heart on bottom

I would like to share today's card with Simon Says Monday Challenge Thinking of you

Happy Halloween

 I made one Halloween card this year. I bought this Set of die cuts and rub ons and after opening it when I got home there was a witches hat in it, and I thought what am I going to do with this, then one of the girls in our group was making her yearly Halloween cards for everyone in our group and I just thought she might appreciate it, I found these bottle rub ons that I thought might go with it.  I drew in a line and some squiggles to kind of ground them, also drew the web. I added some Tickets with numbers to make up 31 for the day.

• Stamperia - Herbarium Silvae Cardboard die cuts (Hat) Rub-on (Bottles) 
• Paper Studio - Distressed Floral paper
• 49 and Market - Ticket Essentials color Swatch Grove 
• Hand drawn Web

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by,
