Holiday GREETINGS and more... 20

Hi there! I hope you are having a great time whatever you are doing. Scott had to work today, so I spent some time creating a collection of 4 cards featuring beautiful images from Pion Design's From Grandma's Attic ~ tinted paper:

All four cards are quite similar with the major differences being the beautiful image, pretty patterned papers used and sentiment. The first three cards were made using a combination of papers from the Days of Winter collection:

I used a variety of Spellbinders die templates:

PTI stamps:

flowers from my stash:

seam binding ribbon:

along with a piece of cotton lace from my stash:

The last card was made using pretty papers from the versatile My Beloved Son collection:

Don't be fooled by the name ~ obviously not just for masculine projects!

For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the MOJO Monday sketch challenge:

Many thanks for visiting ~ I hope you have a great week!

Be Sweet ;)

Merry and Bright... 25

Hi there! I'm so happy the weekend is here! Today I have a few cards to share featuring a variety of Pion Design papers. First up are two similar Christmas cards: one red and one blue, both made using various pretty patterned papers from the Siri's Kitchen 6x6 collection. Don't be fooled by the name! Many of the papers within this collection are quite versatile. 

 I combined 3 different patterned papers along with a stamped angel and sentiment:

 Here she is in blue:

Trust Yourself 20

Hi there! I hope you are having a great week! Today I have a layout to share featuring Pion Design's newly released ~ the gorgeous My Beloved Son collection:

I scrapped a photo of my beloved son Jerry who has been working towards his private pilot license. This photo was taken in the cockpit before they took off for a flight lesson :)

I layered various patterned papers all from the My Beloved Son collection to create the background and mat the photo:

I layered the fun tag on other die cut tags, stitched around the perimeter, embellished with several fussy cut butterflies along with a sentiment:

I embellished with a trio of homemade flowers and fussy cut printed flowers all made using papers from the My Beloved Son collection as well:

For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the current Sketchabilities sketch challenge:
