And now to my projects...
Here I used a Fresh Cut Notecard with the fresh Cuts stampset. I stamped the flowers in Mellow Moss, Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink. I then used my Apricot Appeal ink spot straight on the edges and added a little bit of Barely Banana with my sponge daubers. The flower is from the Pretties Kit and I sponged it too with my sponge daubers and Barely Banana. The pearls are from the Pretties kit too. I put a Certainly Cellery CS behind the pre-cut flower on the notecard.
This one is pretty simple, I used Purely Pomegranate, Basic Black and Mellow Moss here.
This card is 5.25x5.25 in. I stamped the image in Elegant Eggplant on Very Vanilla CS. I matted the image with River Rock and Elegant Eggplant. The card base is River Rock. I used a little bit of Crystal Effects on the image.
Ok, the cutting on this card is really bad but I wanted to show you the idea. The card base is 4x12 in. And it's folded in two places so the folded card size is 4x4 in.
I don't know if you can see on this picture how it's folded. My paper cutter desperately needs a new blade, I ended up using my scissors to cut out the window and I'm pretty bad at cutting straight lines with scissors....even if I have an outline to follow. I do like the color combo though, Elegant Eggpland, Perfect Plum, Pale Plum and Very Vanilla.
We've still got DH's niece staying with us so I didn't make anything complicated this weekend.
Next two weekends I'm going to focus on designer paper and you'll get to see more than just cards! I can't wait to start working on the projects I have in mind!
