Fall leaves


This is my entry in Mercy's Tues. challenge MTSC46. I am also using it for my 2RedBananas challenge card. For this challenge I needed to use at least 3 of the 4 challenge colors (red, yellow, orange & brown) I managed to use them all. The pattern paper is from JoAnn's, the mat is a recycled gift bag and the orange ribbon is from my ribbon stash, not sure where I bought it since I buy a lot of ribbon from my local second hand store it probably came from there. The image was in the fall image exchange from my Just Cards group so I don't know who makes it. I used my nestibilities to cut out the image and all the mats. I punched out different colors of leaves with a punch I bought at Micheal's years ago and glued them beneath the tree. I finished off the card with three leaf emblishments. Hope you enjoy the card, Janet

Friends MMSC26


Here is my entry for this week in the Midnight Madness sketch challenge. I had a lot of fun with this one, pattern paper is from JoAnn's, image I stamped at my sister in law's so don't know whe makes the stamp. I used my cuttlebug embossing folder for the white cardstock on the corners. Red and white ribbon for the accents and colored pencils to finish off the image. This makes a great card to send for almost any occasion. Happy crafting, Janet

Hedgehog Thank You sketch #4



This is my entry in Squigglefly, sketch challenge #4. I flipped the sketch and put the verse in the bottom corner and added a ribbon. I am also using this as a mingle swap on one of my card swap groups. Enjoy everyone and good night, Janet

Santa



Here is my entry in the Papercraft Sat. Challenge SK103109 and my swap card for Stampers Corner Christmas card mingle. I used various pieces of cardstock in greens and red, embossed with the cuttlebug folder for the background. The santa image is from the Angel Company, the verse from a $ stamp I bought at Micheal's. I cut and matted them using my nestibilities. The verse is popped up to add height to the card. Happy crafting, Janet

This is my entry in two different sketch challenges, the sketch challenge is from Card Positioning sketches and the image is a digi stamp from Simple Doodles and is for their challenge. I plan on using this for my "Pass it On" card for next week. I cut the half circles using Creative Memories circle template and embossed with cuttlebugs embossing folder. I printed the Simple Doodles image on white cardstock, and colored the ribbon with a pink gel pen. I then matted it on a dark purple cardstock and put it onto the front of the card with pop dots. Hope you enjoy the card, Janet

Butterfly Beauty





Here is this week's entry in the Card Patterns sketch challenge #39. I started with gray cardstock and used my cuttlebug embossing folder to emboss the front, I distressed the front with black ink. I added ribbon and a part circle of velum. The butterfly center is a $ stamp from Micheal's cut into an oval with my nestibilities, the mat is tan cardstock cut with the nestibilities and edged in black. I restamped the butterfly on muted gold, cut it out and used cut circles of heavy plastic to lift the second butterfly up to add some depth, here is the place to look for directions.

Thank you in pink and blue



This card is my entry in The Farm Fresh challenge #10. It is also my week 2 color challenge for my Just Cards swap group. I used two different cuttlebug embossing folders on the card and four of the five colors we had to pick from. I used the red yarn for a bright accent. The blue Thank You pieces were cut with my new EK Success border punch, I popped them up for added demension. Happy crafting, Janet

The Little Cook MOJO111



Here is my MoJo111 entry. I love the sketch this week, I used two of my fall Magnolia stamps. I love that you can sit the figure on the knife and fork. I bought some new little buttons yesterday at Wal Mart so had to use them on this card. Also used some of my silk flowers. The papers are from JoAnn's, the print is part of the "Once Upon A Time" mat stack. I love the glittery papers in that stack. Happy scrapping.
