Purple asters

This stamp and die set of asters was purchased last month from Heartfelt Creations.  The pack of paper had 24 double sided sheets and were made for the stamps and asters.  Plus, of course, purple is one of my favorite colors.  I stamped the image with Momento ink and colored with Copic markers.  I die cut the asters ,  colored the centers and layered them onto the image.  I only die cut the two larger asters. 

Beautiful Snowfall

I'm so sorry I have been missing in action!  I usually upload my pics from my laptop and it had to take a visit to the shop for repairs.  I'm hoping it will return home soon!  My PC is slow and I don't have photo editing on it so am going to just post my pics without editing.  This neat scene is from Rubber Cottage and is colored with copic markers.  I added Starfire Glitter #G1017 from http://www.sparklensprinkle.com/ on all of the snowy areas.  I love hos this glitter sparkles just like a new snowfall!  The poinsetta is stamped with white pigment ink and heat embossed with white opaque embossing powder.  The poinsetta stamp is from Heartfelt Creations and the die is from Spellbinders.  The cardstock is cherry cobbler from Stampin Up and the white is from Papertrey Ink.  Enjoy!

Have Courage

I just realized I had not posted any of my pink ribbon cards to my blog.  Shame on me!  I used pale pink cardstock for the card and decorative paper to layer on this.  I stamped the ribbon and fuzzy cut, then applied to card.  The sentiment was punched out and applied to chocolate cardstock that was also punched out.  The seam binding was dyed with re-inkers and crunched.  The flower was stamped and die cut, then wrinkled and put together.  I also made a stick pin from pearls and a pearl heart and stuck this in the back of the flower.   The flower stamp is from Heartfelt Creations and I don't remember what company makes the ribbon and sentiment.  Everyone enjoy this beautiful fall weekend coming up!

Autumn Leaves

Yesterday was such a beautiful fall day here in Virginia and today is suppose to be the same.  I love this time of the year.  The leaves still have not peaked but they are turning and you see color everywhere.  I hope you enjoy this fall card.  The stamp is by Heartfelt Creations and they also have a leaf die set to match but I don't have that yet, just hand cut the leaves.  I stamped this onto ivory cardstock two times.  I then fuzzy cut the leaves from the second stamped images.  I colored everything with Prismacolor pencils blended with stumps and gamsol.  I used pop-up dots to raise up the cut leaves.

I love the stamps and dies (made by Spellbinders) that are by Heartfelt Creations.  They ae so versatil and, of course, any flower made by hand is so neat!  I stamped this flower and  leaf on vellum paper, heat embossed with whtie embossing powder and then die dut.  The birdhouse and bird are from Stamps by Judith.  What are your opinions on this card? 

Vellum Daisy

My friend and I were playing around one day the other week and decided to try using vellum for some flowers. She had her set of daisies and the matching dies from Heartfelt Creations so I started stamping in white ink and heat embossing with white embossing powder.  I used pink and light green vellum.  Sonnie did the labor part by using the Grand Calibur from Spellbinderspaperarts and die cutting all of the flowers and leaves.  We then shared what we had and later that n ight I made this cute card.  I colored the vellum flowers with a marker to get a deeper pink. The background is embossed using the Cuttlebug and the larger dot folder.  I'm not sure what company makes the sentiment -- have had it for ages!  I also used Tim Holtz Sizzix die for the flourish.  Enjoy.

Fall pumpkins

This image turned into a wall hanging which I  just love!  I had some really sturdy cardboard and covered it with pattern paper from Papertrey Ink.  I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils blended with Gamsol and also Copic Markers.  I stamped the pumkins the second time on orange cardstock and used my pumpkin die cuts to cut them out.   I highlighted these with Prismacolor pencils and used pop dots to give them dimension.  I then used my Grand Calibur machine from Spellbinders to die cut the image.  I layered the image onto chocolate and orage cardstock.  I tied some chocolate and white twinery into a bow for an added embellishment.  I also used silk chocolate ribbon to make the hanger.  The image is from Heartfelt Creations.
