I have two cards for you today, my friends ... the first on the 'pretty' side for Jen B. at Freshly Made Sketches #677 allowed me to use a bit of DSP from a very old stash of Anna Griffins's Olivia [2013] Collection of papers. But first here is Jen's sketch...
I reached for my PFS Essential Label dies and instead of three
equal labels, I made three graduating ones! It's hardly noticeable but I like it!
My friend Bonnie often enables a few of my purchases - this Alstroemeria bloom from SSS is an embossing folder and die combination. Cut first, then tuck it in place in the folder to emboss all that wonderful detail. I cut mine from watercolor card and used these inks to 'kind of' match the dsp... how'd I do?
The other day I shared a Shamrock shaped card with you... here's another cute little die from Stamps of Life in lots of pastels for Jaydee at The Paper Players #728! You'll notice I did NOT forget the lavender this time! wink. It's a fun die set and I used the 'piecing' die to create a 'template' for all those pieces to fit after blending each with color.
Dad's hammer came out for a bit of texture using an embossing folder
before adding my sentiment from WFC and this panel to a side-folding card.
Off I hop to pop these into the challenges... hope you're looking forward to the weekend! I'll be back tomorrow with another card for Penny Black Saturday Challenge and a reminder for The Flower Challenge... which reminds me! Have you played in both?? Some bunny would be very happy if you did!
