Love layout

Hi!  Happy Friday!!! It's Lisa here with a fun layout that uses some of the great Piccolo and Globecraft accents, and since it is almost Valentine's Day I had to do something all about love...

Supplies:

Classy Circle Frames pack of 2	Enamel EP CRANBERRY WINE	Fantasy White	Sketchbook 6x6	Love Word Accent	Distress Spray Stain BRUSHED PEWTER
Cherub Hearts Die

InLinkz.com

I love dressing up the accents with various embossing enamels!  For my title I also sealed it with Glastique in gloss for a nice shine.  Now technically my card wouldn't fit in the current challenge, since I have lots of little spots of colors, but I hope to see you join us in our Pink, White and one more color...

Happy Crafting!
Lisa

"Give Thanks..."

"Give thanks to the LORD for He is good." 

                                                   Psalm 136:1

Hello, and happy Thursday to you all!

Sandie here again...a November guest designer...with a "Thanks" card for this week's challenge.

And that is the verse I used on the  front of my card, a SweetStamps stamp called "Staggered Give Thanks" and the two dies I used are also theirs. They are "Elegant Leaves" and "Classy Deer". 

I am using this as a Thanksgiving card which I plan to mail to my family in Wisconsin. I have not finished the inside yet so we shall see if I get this mailed on time. Sad to say, I am notorious for getting cards in the mail one day late...very consistently. LOL

This was a fun card to make. I made a stencil of heavy card stock and inked the bottom layer of the leafy wreath with an orangish ink, then die cut 3 more colors of the leaves to arrange in the wreath shape. (For delicate die cuts like this I use spray adhesive.) Some of the leaves have glitter added in gold and crystal.

The deer is one of my newest (and "deerest") dies and I've used it with glitter card stock. The very first time I visited the SweetStamps online store I knew I wanted that die. I'm looking forward to making some elegant Christmas cards with it.

I hope you are enjoying the beautiful samples made by the SweetStamps design team. Scroll down to see them if you haven't already. And once you are inspired, we'd love to have you join the challenge with YOUR creation. Each week there is a generous prize given to one randomly chosen winner of a $20 shopping spree for SweetStamps merchadise at their online store.

Thank you, crafty friends, for stopping by today.
