Count My Blessings

It's been quite some time since I sat down and thought about the colors of fall and I have to say... I'm NOT ready...  I want the summer to last so much longer... For us in Washington State, the fall means 8 months of rain and quite honestly I can do without...  Nonetheless, here is my card for today's Autumn Leaves challenge....

The scallop rows are made with Sparkle N Sprinkle glitters and Super Adhesive Sheets.  I picked 3 fall colors and ran with it...  The leaf colored were inspired by the glitter colors...  Both stamp sets used are also from Sparkle N Sprinkle and I just love these leaves...  I hope you enjoy my card today and I would love to know what you think..

Happy Stamping!!!

"Sporty" CAS Challenge

The challenge is to pick your favorite team's colors and create a card using those colors. The card doesn't have to contain anything to do with sports except for the colors. I had a couple ideas so I made a couple cards for this challenge... The first one if a combination of my kid's school colors since they are in 3 different school...

I used the ribbon below the scallop to make it look like a winners ribbon... I did choose to go with the sport theme all around with this one and I like how it turned out given I am really not that good with CAS cards..

My next card is in honor of my home state and the good ole Ohio State Buckeyes... Scarlet and Gray... I wish my butterfly trails were a little bit skinnier but they didn't turn out that way. I could have used a marker and done them gray, but I wanted them a little shinier like their jerseys so I embossed them with silver and unfortunately the thickness of the lines is a result of the versamarker... The butterflies were made using the butterfly embosslit from Stampin Up!... My last card is probably the most important card with the most important colors out there...

There really isn't anything to explain about this card. It was very simple to put together and I only have three words to say about this card: DALLAS COWBOYS BABY!!!!!! Thanks for taking the time to look at my CAS cards today.. I hope you enjoy what I have done for you. Happy Stamping!!!

DTGD Challenge #6

This is my 6th card for the DTGD challenges... This was truly a challenge for me but I managed and I am very happy with the turnout... I am also using this card for the Loves Rubber Stamps Challenge.. There really isn't much to tell you about this card.. I know it is very difficult to see from the photo, but I stamped my image and sentiment with Lucky Limeade ink and the used the stamp a ma jig to line up both images again and stamped them with versamark and embossed with clear embossing powder. The card has so much more dimension by just adding that embossing powder... I love how this card turned out... Thank you so much for stopping by... Happy Stamping!!!

Dictionary Flowers

Here is my card for today's FS challenge... I was stalking Loll's gallery for quite some time yesterday and then I have to say I was extremely excited that she was the FS this week... I can't even begin to tell you how many of her cards I added to my favorites or how hard it was to pick one to CASE... I did end up choosing this card here: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...;ppuser=287186 I changes the colors, the flower type and the sentiment... I used the rose creation and carnation creation dies to create this flower and the paper is dictionary pages and DSP put together.. I sprayed with Shimmer Mist and dried for the curled look.I hope you enjoy what I have done for you today... Please let me know what you think.. Happy Stamping!!!
