Freshly Made Sketches #614

I love it when things fall into place.  The minute I saw the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches I knew I had the perfect die for it.  Then in looking through my Bits box I found just the panel to inlay in the die.

 

The circle die, cut in silver, is from Waffle Flower and an extra part was cut to fill in the bottom corner.  The circles are from a Brusho background that had been in the box for quite a while.  A heat embossed sentiment from Hero Arts was all it took to make a masculine birthday card for my stash.

I couldn't let the leftovers go to waste so I made another card.

I put the circles to the bottom without the extra portion, inlaid the silver circles and added a stamped sentiment from PTI.  It's been gloomy here so no good light to let the silver shine.

Seize the Birthday #274, Triple B 11.23 and NBUS #56

I had been waiting for Honey Bee's Fall Bouquets to come back in stock and I finally got it.  I made a card that fits into Seize the Birthday and Triple B and since the dies are new it's going to NBUS too.

 

Everything was cut from  colored cardstock and the edges inked.  I had to go over the ribs on the pumpkin several times because the ink kept fading back.  The three stems in the back are from their Fall Foliage.  The background was embossed with SU's Subtle folder.   I can see making a lot more arrangements in that pumpkin.

Thanks for dropping by.  It warms my heart.

Double D - Stripes or Dots

 Double D has a Stripes and/or Dots challenge and I used both on my card.

I stamped the singer from Penny Black and colored her with Altenew artist markers.  After cutting her in an oval, she was framed in a larger oval cut from polka dot paper in my stash.  The sentiment die comes with the stamp.  I colored a scrap with the Altenew ink that matched her jacket before cutting it out.

Thanks for dropping by.  Have a good week.

Peace on Earth #52

I saw my friend Marcia's card that she posted to Peace on Earth and just like I told her, I CASEd it.  Thanks for the beautiful inspiration Marcia.

I started with a panel that was inked with what was left on my blue, purple and pink blending brushes. Cut copy paper helped make the Lost Shadow drifts.  The trees are from Deep Red, stamped in Altenew Mountain Pine and the sentiment is from PTI.

I'm so glad you dropped by.  I hope you leave a comment.
