Sympathy cards

 I recently needed some sympathy cards, so I dived into my UFO pile to find some backgrounds, and die cut some leaves to create these three cards.

Using up leftovers

 After I made my cards for my ACEP LEvel 2 challenge, I had some of the stamped and embossed panels left over. I decided to go super CAS with this card by adding a stamped sentiment under the panel, and nothing else!

Magnolia pattern

I've been waiting to get my hands on this gorgeous Magnolia Pattern stamp and stencil set from PinkFresh Studio. It's late winter here, and the magnolias are in bloom, and they always remind me of my Gran - she had two beautiful magnolia trees in her front yard. I paired it up with a word die from Simon Says Stamp.

The parameters were: 

Project: Kid’s Card

Colors: Theater

Element: Picture(s)

Here's what I came up with! 

I used the Steamboat Willie etched dies from Spellbinders, along with the Flags and Banners etched dies. I created the film strip with a very old punch from my stash.

Stay Crafty Challenge - Splish Splash

 There's a new Stay Crafty Challenge on the Hero Arts blog with A Blog Named Hero! The theme is "Splish Splash", and we want to see cards that have something to do with water - either a watery technique, or images of water. I used emboss resist with Zig marker and water on this card. 

Join in on the Hero Arts blog for your chance to win a $50 gift card!
