Summer's End

Hi all, I'm love the cool fall nights. We are finely having some perfect weather. The yard has been full of squirrels playing in the tree's. Fall is my favorite time of the year.

For my card I stamped the Summer's End Tree with brown ink and sponged the ground and air brushed the sky. Then I used Twinkling H20's. and used a oval die. The Squirrel with Acorn was colored with copics and fussy cut I used pop dots to attach him. I stamped In a Nutshell and just trimmed it down. A ribbon strip was added to the bottom. This was attached to a brown card.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett

Long Tall Wheat

                                             
Hi all, the card that I have today was inspired by all the beautiful goldenrod that is in bloom here, the fields and road sides are covered and when the sun is shining on the goldenrod you can see how it got its name.

For my card today I started with the background and the Long Tall Wheat and green ink, stamping first and second generations. Then I used my Twinkling H20's, I added the golden  dot's and air brushed the sky.  I stamped the Pumpkin Greeting on white card and did a wash of Twinkling H20's over the top. i stamped the Pumpkin Ribbon Slide and colored it with Copic markers then fussy cut and added the ribbon across the bottom.

Have a wonderful day,

Janett

Happy Fall Y'all

Today is the first day of fall. And my favorite time of the year. So I had to share a fall card with you today.

I started with this cute little Split Scarecrow stamp and colored him with Copic markers. I use a Spellbinder Circle Die and the out of the box technique after cutting I left it in the die and sponged some Wild Honey Distress Ink around the edges. I stamped the Happy Fall Greeting with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, when I stamped it I got a smudge on the card, to cover it I added  some Liquid Pearls in Buttercup. Problem solved. This was layered on to green that was cut with a Spellbinder Scalped die. For the leaves I used the Medium Silhouette Leaf  stamp and Twinkling H2O's that I painted on the stamp Then I stamped the Open Leaf in Memento Coco ink using a stamp positioner. These were fussy cut. 

I hope you have a Happy Fall Day,

Janett

Miracle

Hi all, What a weekend it has been, we have had the windows open all day it went up 70 degrees with high humidity. My daffodils are up with buds and will be blooming in no time. I was hoping for a little more winter.

I used Twinkling  H20’s to color the background, glitter glue was used on the moon. A spellbinder die was used to cut out the image. This was layered onto  black card stock then a white card.

Warm Wishes

Hi all, I hope you had a great Christmas. I had a wonderful time with family and friends. It was a gray day not to cold, but the next day the rain and wind moved in with a few snowflakes winter has come to Georgia.

For my card today I chose a winter theme. I used the DRS designs Medium Filigree Snowflake, Ice Skates, and the Warm Wishes Greeting.

For the background I tried the Twinkling H2O’s tutorial form Splitcoast Stampers. I stamped the Medium Filigree Snowflake in Versa Mark and clear Embossing Powder on white paper using Blue Ice and Periwinkle Twinkling H2O’s. The Ice Skates were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic markers, I used the Lables 18 Spellbinder Die to cut out the image then Blue Ice Twinkling H2O’s were used to color the background with the image still in the die. I traced around the die onto black paper and cut it out with scissors.  The Warm Wishes Greeting was stamped with black ink and the background was colored with the Twinkling H2O’s while it was still in the die. The background was layered onto black card then attached to a white card.

Stay warm and have a Happy New Year,

Janett
