Graceful swan

Happy monday everyone!

A while ago I was so lucky to be asked to do a card/tutorial for the online magazine StampArtic. The theme was "Frames on cards", and you might have noticed that frames are one of my favorite things to add to my cards:)

This is the card I came up with, and if you want to see the step by step instructions, simply head over to StampArtic.
As usual the images were colored with Distress Inks, and the stamps used are from Heartfelt Creations , Graceful Swan, and Filler Leaves.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!!

Royal Fruit!

Today I have a Heartfelt Creations card to share with you. I used a delicious Grape image, and instead of the regular purple ones, I decided to go for green grapes!

The image is colored with Le Plume Markers and Distress Iks. The decorative "top" is made from Spellbinders dies. Added some bling and a bow to give it kind of a royal feel :)

Thanks so much for visiting, and have a wonderful day!!

Very Vintage Rose

I`ve seen so many gorgeous cards using this weeks sketch at the Crazy 4 Challenges challenge blog, and just had to try it too!

After all those Very Vibrant colors at my last post, I thought I`d go for Very Vintage this time...LOL!
I used a Rose image from Serendipity as the focal point.
It is colored and distressed with Distress Inks. I`ve used metal corners to create the vintage "frame", and Spellbinders dies for the decorative elements.

Thanks so much for visiting, and have a happy day!!

Boo!

The Serendipity DT challenge this month was to make a halloween card.
And I have to tell you I was WAY out of my comfort zone...LOL!!

I found this cute little ghost image. I popped up the fence and made it a little longer to fit the frame. I have done some masking on the trees, which by the way is from the new line of stamps. The background is sponged with Distress Inks, and the frame is embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder.

Just a note...

I am sorry for my absence lately... I am sure you feel it too... fall is such a busy time! With the kids back to school, lots of homework, lots of activities... days are flying by so fast!

Anyway, here is a "just a note" card using
this gorgeous Daisy Bouquet from Heartfelt Creations.
As usual the image is colored with Distress inks. All decorative elements are Spellbinders.

Thanks for visiting, and I hope all of you have a wonderful Sunday!
