Freshly Made Sketches #55

Image
Hi Everyone, I've made this card for Freshly Made Sketches #55 here I've tinted my Vellum with brayer and Baja Breeze ink before embossing with the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder to create a monochromatic card.  The base card is Not Quite Navy with Whisper White Card and I've also used the Delicate Designs Border Embossing Folder down the LHS on the white and the Perfect Pennants Die cut circle under my punched and Stamped Ornament from the Delightful Decorations set.  It's also been sprayed with a little Shimmer mist.  There is a little Dsp from the Twitterpated pack under my strip with the Pleated Satin Baja Ribbon. Here is the sketch my card was based on Thanks for taking a look.  Hope you'll tell me what you think.

Hi Everyone, With my very first order I placed on 1st September, the Elegant Butterfly Punch and the matching stamp set Papillon Potpourri were at the very top of my list to purchase.  I've been after these ever since I saw one of the Make and Takes some girls brought back with them from Convention. Here are a few of cards featuring them that I made in September.

Create with Connie and Mary

H i Everyone, Here is another challenge for Create with Connie and Mary It's a colour challenge this time. Here is the card below I've created for the challenge I've used the Stamp Set Greetings of the Season from the Holiday Mini for the Greeting stamped with Cherry Cobbler Ink on Whisper White Card.  My base card is Baja Breeze and my Cherry Cobbler layer is embossed with the Lacy Brocade Embossing folder.  I've punched squares with the Postage Stamp punch of Pink Pirouette and Baja Breeze and punched ornaments from retired Letters to Santa Dsp with 1 inch sq punch and mounted them onto the Baja squares.  It's a quick and simply Christmas Card but I need quite a few of those as I'm in the middle of making Christmas Cards for our Aussie troops to be posted where they're stationed in overseas service. Thanks for looking.
