Fall-to Layout 60

For some reason I had a hard figuring out what I wanted to do for my sketch this week. Sometimes it just is easier, you know? I finally decided on something, and it was loosely based on the image I wanted to use. You've got to start somewhere, right! So here's the sketch:

Some dimensions:

  • Card base: 4-1/4 x 5-1/2
  • Cream Piece:2-1/8 x 3-1/4
  • Pumpkin Piece: 1 x 3-1/4
Supplies: Stamps: Autumn Splendor, Garden of Life Paper: Vintage Cream, Dark Chocolate, Pumpkin Pie Ink: Rich Cocoa Accessories, etc.: Chocolate Polytwill, corner rounder, pop dots, copics, rhinestones *Keeping things simple tip* Use a template to draw dots for the rhinestones, apply with tweezers.

Ten Minute Monday 09/14/09

I've got an ultra quick, ultra simple card to share today. I was in the mood for a one layer card with a bit of a colour pop. I chose my ribbon first, then found one coordinating colour and an earthy neutral. Sometimes, it's easy to forget how nicely using markers for inking up stamps can turn out! Supplies: Stamps: Feel the Joy (Unity stamps, from i {heart} papers), Sincere Salutations Ink: Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede Paper: Rustic WhiteAccessories, etc.: Ribbon

FTL59 - Grateful For You

Hello, and happy Saturday! :) This is what I created using the Fall-to Layout #59 sketch. I normally stamp the flowers from In Bloom onto colored card stock, then cut out and layer them with pop dots, but decided to give coloring with my Copics a try. I can definitely use the practice! :) A simple card, but I think it turned out kinda cute.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
