First up is a card for CAS-ual Fridays "For the Girls" challenge:
(Supplies - Stamps: (Hero Arts) Lotus Leaves, (Stampin' Up!) Well Scripted. Ink: (Memento) Tuxedo Black, (Fresh Ink) Pink Lemonade. Cardstock: (PTI) Aqua Mist, Smokey Shadow. Heart Punch: Stampin' Up!. Impression Plate: (PTI) Argyle. Other: Stickles, white ribbon.)
I used my Pink Lemonade fresh ink to stamp the lotus leaves onto white cardstock, then used the argyle impression plate in my Big Shot to give some texture. The hearts were punched first, then I spread stickles all over them with my finger. After they dried, I adhered them to the background cardstock.
Next up is a card for Cloud9's October Blog Hop. Here is our inspiration piece:
I just love the painted pumpkins! I pulled out Pretty Patches: Pumpkins for my card:
(Supplies - Stamps: (Wplus9) Pretty Patches: Pumpkin, Happy Harvest. Ink: (PTI) Canyon Clay, Dark Chocolate, Ripe Avocado. Cardstock: (PTI) Canyon Clay, Kraft. Patterned Paper: (PTI) Distressed Dots. Dies: (Wplus9) Clear Cuts Stackers: Pinking Squares. Impression Plate: (PTI) Cane. Other: gems, baker's twine.)
Finally I have a card for this month's Hero Arts card challenge. I used one of the sketches and a beautiful dogwood stamp for my card:
(Supplies - Stamps: (Hero Arts) Dogwood stamp & die set, Everyday Messages. Ink: (Memento) Desert Sand, (PTI) Fresh Snow. Cardstock: (PTI) Kraft, White, Soft Stone. Patterned Paper: Studio Calico. Dies: (PTI) Double Ended Banner, 2.5" Limitless Layers Circles, Pinking edger. Other: Button.)
I think this last card is my favorite... I love how soft and feminine it is. The dogwood image is beautiful... even more so in person.
That's it from me today! Have a great week. :-)
