Spring! - CPS107

CardPatterns Sketch#107. I just call my card spring because that's what I think of when I see it. This is an extra wide ecru colored lace I threaded a green and gold satin ribbon through and tied a bow at the top. The stamps are from Stampin' Up! Sweet Summer set. I stamped the flowers in Rose Romance and Old Olive. Then I colored in the flowers using my SU markers in Old Olive, Daffodil Delight and Pixie Pink. I used the Pixie Pink first and the flowers seemed too bright pink. So I added some of the Daffodil Delight to them and it brought the color closer to the flowers in the dp. The base cardstock is Old Olive.

Follow your heart - CPS96

CardPatterns Sketch#96 - follow your heart. Just having some fun with retired dps from Stampin' Up! and some fun stamps. To get the pretty lacey frame around my heart I used a border punch and then I cut a slit between the flowers and crimped and taped the paper around the edges.

Fall- CPS85 & PCS17 &CCM16

Fall - CardPatterns Sketches85 and Papercraft Star17 and Chi Chi Memories#16.
CardPatterns & Chi Chi Memories challenges are to use their sketches. As they were both similar it was easy to incorporate both challenges into one. The Papercraft Star challenge was to use the photo as inspiration. I think I utilized all of the ingredients for both challenges. The tree stamp is from Stampin' Up! collection Lovely As a Tree. It was stamped in Versa Mark and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. The tag is a sticker.
