French Foliage Card Collection

I've created this set of cards for a class from a One Sheet Wonder, and they proved to be rather popular, suitable for a variety of occasions and both masculine and feminine.

    Hi Carolyn,
    I love your blog. The pattern and colours are great.

    You put me to shame ... I've been such a slack blogger the past couple of years.

    Congrats, Keryn

    This is such a classic and you have done it beautifully! I remember first doing this about eight years ago (or so) and I loved it then and I love it now. Thanks for the reminder of how much fun it is to make one-sheet cards!! (And welcome to Blogland!)

Music Teacher Farewell // Paper Players #173 Shaped Card Challenge

Image
Hello Everyone, It's a sad week for my daughter and her friends who have really enjoyed what the music program offered them at the High School this year.  Their very talented teacher will be moving on to a new school and they're having a little party for their last day of the Vocal ensemble practice which was an extra activity that he undertook with the students, as well as teaching them to play all sorts of instruments in lesson times. His speciality though, Guitar!  I have decided to enter this card into the Paper Players Shaped Card Challenge this week.  While not specifically made for the challenge, I think it's a pretty cool shape and fits the criteria.  I also think more people deserve to see this card. When asked to make a card for the group to give him, with that in mind I found some inspiration on Pinterest and came up with this card. The hardest part for me was getting the shaping right, and I had to call on my Artistic daughter to draw the edge...

Create with Connie and Mary 274 and JAI 188 2nd Entry

Image
Hello Everyone, There is another Colour Challenge this week over at Create with Connie and Mary I love the colour combo and have decided to make a DL sized card (long and skinny).  I'm calling this card a Hex Grunge Butterfly card.  Stamp sets used are Gorgeous Grunge, Six Sided Sampler and Papillon Potpourri stamp set and co-ordinating punches. Grunge is not normally my style, but I recently had the stamp set out for another challenge over at JAI.  Love the pretty Soft Sky colour over the Very Vanilla card.  I've also decided to enter this card into the Grunge Challenge this week at Just Add Ink as a 2nd entry.   Have a closer look. So what do you think of today's card for both challenges this week, the Colour challenge and the Grunge challenge at JAI.   Please feel free to make a comment.  I'd love to hear your thoughts. Have a great day.

Just Add Ink #186

Image
Hello Everyone, This week at Just Add Ink there is an inspiration challenge from Delys.   Isn't this floral wreath gorgeous.  I was so inspired by this picture that I wanted to make a wreath on my card.  More aptly make my card a Wreath.  Here it is using the Daydream Medallions stamp set. Its another Easel card, this time shaped with the Floral Framelits.  I'm calling it my Christmas Wreath Easel Card.   My cardstock is Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White and Raspberry Ripple. This is a closer look at the front so you can see more of the detail.  I've Stamped the Daydream Medallion Stamp with Primrose Petals Ink onto the Whisper White card, then cut it out with the Floral Framelits.  I've also used the Boho Blossoms punch for the flowers which I've added.  The greeting in the Centre is from the stamp set Greetings of the Season. For the base of my card, and to act as an anchor to stand up the Easel I've created a bow out of O...
