Addicted to mini cards!

Hey!

I'm back today with two mini cards to share with you, these mini cards are a cute 11 x 11 cm square. They might be mini cards but this is a not so mini blog post! 

With the foggy cold mornings starting to appear Autumn is really upon us and as I gaze out of the Studio window as the Autumn sunlight breaks through the clouds it really shows up the warm colours of the leaves on the trees. 

Such a beautiful sight, so, when I saw the current DYSU challenge seen HERE and below my card I knew I wanted to make a card & this is what I came up with...

I started out by choosing 3 SU! colours, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red & Summer Sun. I then used the smaller outline leaf from Pure Florals: Gerbera & stamped it in each of the 3 colours. After fussy cutting them out I adhered them to the lower right corner of a piece of Kraft CS and secure with a twine tied button. The 'Thanks' sentiment is from Label Love: Thank you.

Here is a close up of the detail...

I am also entering this card into the Moxie FAB World WCMD Thank you Challenge HERE. 

I've got a second card to share with you today...

Whilst sorting my desk out I came across this BOO! label I had printed but not used from the Super FREE Saturday BOO! collection available for download HERE. I decided to use the current Play Date Cafe Challenge colours seen HERE and below which are just perfect for a Halloween card! 

I paired the label with some die cut banners which I stamped with 2 designs from Wonderful Washi. This shows how even more versatile the stamps from Wonderful Washi are! Below is a close up of the detail...

You can just about see in the photo above the Silver Stickles glitter glue that I added to the arch of stars. This card also fits perfectly into the current Addicted to Stamps Challenge HERE which is Addicted to Halloween. I'm more addicted to Halloween this year than ever before & I'm looking forward to the night itself to all the cute lil kids dressed up Trick or Treating! 

Well, it's been a treat for you today as I've had two cards to share and it's been a while since I've been this creative in one day!! Lets hope the trend continues. 

Thank you for stopping by & as always your comments are truly appreciated.

Hugs

Mini Pennant Flags!

Hey!

Happy Weekend to you all. I hope you have a goodie & find some inky time, I hope to find a bit in amongst some DIY, fingers crossed.

I have a card to share with you that came about from supplies already on my desk left over from my project HERE. I'm really loving this colour combination and mix of the 2 NEW stamp sets from Uniko Studio (even if I do say so myself!) I will try to show you some other projects using the other NEW products released soon ;) 

Anyway, here is todays card...

It just so happens that this card fits the bill for the current challenge over on Do You Stack Up (DYSU) HERE. Their current challenges is to use banners, flags, pennants or tags on your project. These little beauties from Wonderful Washi go hand in had with this challenge along with the larger Washi stamps! 

I had to pair it with a label and sentiment from Love Labels: Thank you for good measure! 

That's all from me today, but I'll be back again tomorrow with more to share, until then 'Thank you So Much' for stopping by.

Hugs

Be Still My Beating Heart...

Hey!

My heart goes a little faster occasionally when I'm creating, especially if a challenge sparks the perfect combinations of colours and stamps, today's little project was one of them moments...

This ensemble above of a card & matching tag came about after seeing the last challenge at Do You Stack Up (DYSU) challenge HERE and seen below...

Kraft & Twine is a combination I haven't used for some time and the pop of red and white in the photo above sparked my creation! 

I started with the card and began by stamping the chevron Washi stamp from Wonderful Washi on a piece of white CS so that the design went over the edges of the CS. I then mounted it onto some Real Red CS before adhering to my Kraft card base. 

I then created the 'Thank You' label using stamps from Label Love: Thank you and adhered it to the PTI die cut with foam adhesive. Before I adhered it to the card with more foam adhesive I wrapped some linen thread around the centre of the chevron 3 times. Here's a close up of the detail...

I thoroughly enjoyed making this CAS card that I had to go on and make the matching tag! It's been ages since I've made a matching tag too! 

The process of making the card was the same as the card except for making the chevron stripe smaller in width. Though I missed the deadline for the challenge it really sparked my creative juices!

That's all from me today. I'll be back again tomorrow with a trio of CAS cards to share, until then, thanks for stopping by.
