Happy Saturday! Time for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week features a Grateful card.

Perfect as I’m getting cards together for November.

I pulled out the Country Home stamp set, some framelits, some punches…….for this –

I started with the sentiment stamped in Blackberry Bliss. I had the background Buffalo Check already stamped in Merry Merlot. I added the lines in Blackberry Bliss.

I layered leaves and sprigs until I got just the right look. The card is finished off with a bow of lovely Linen Trim.

Don’t you just love this?

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Mary Brown. I know they’ll have some great

Welcome to the Create with Connie and Mary Thursday challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

Great colors to create this –

I was so excited to play around with the tree looking stamp from Winter Woods stamps set. I repeated the inking and stamping of this set to create the background. Very simple! But, very pretty.

The leaves were framelit cut and layered on one another.

The tied twine was the finishing touch to this!

The other Design Team members at Create with Connie and Mary created some really nice designs using these colors. Check them out!

Hello Fall – Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop

September 22, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Happy Fall!!! And, welcome to our Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week features a ‘Hello Fall’ card.

I went with a thank you fall because I’m so grateful for the season of fall!

This all started with the Buffalo Check background. It is Crumb Cake on Very Vanilla.

I added the Mossy Meadow lines. It’s so fall, so flannel looking!

I added the card base and I loved how it all looked against Cherry Cobbler. Then came this hostess set, Warm Hearted, for the ‘thanks’.

I added the leaves from the Detailed Leaves with sprigs using the Sprig Punch. The twine is Cherry Cobbler.

This is beautiful and suitable for anyone! It really warms my heart!

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Mary Brown hello fall cards!

Happy Tuesday! It’s time to share a creation designer for Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!

Optional Theme : Fall Favorites

Not too hard since fall is my favorite time of the year!

I love this new Falling for Leaves bundle! I paired it with the Country Lane Designer Series Paper.

This bundle has beautiful stamps and the coordinating dies are wonderful! I’ve already gotten lots of use from them!

This paper is quite shimmery! It’s just beautiful!!! The sentiment strip is Shimmery White card stock to match the paper! It’s also a bit softer white than Whisper White.

Here is the sketch we are working with for the next to weeks at Try Stampin’ on Tuesday –

You can join us on our blog, or link up on Facebook to show how you designed with the sketch!

Blogging Friends Blog Hop – September

September 1, 2018 · 4 Comments

Welcome to the second of three posts today for Three Post Saturday! I’ll be sharing fall cards today for all the postings.

This monthly blog hop is for Blogging friends Blog Hop as you can see –

We have a photo inspiration this month –

So pretty! And, fall, my favorite time of the year!

I used the same stamp set and framelits as I had earlier, the Falling for Leaves Bundle –

This is a really pretty bundle! So many neat pieces in the thinlits.

I started with stamping the large leaf randomly on the Soft Sea Foam layer (a favorite of mine).

I stamped another one on Crushed Curry, cutting it out.

The sentiment was stamped and the borders were cut, then placed on a strip of Merry Merlot. An additional borders was cut using the border thinlits that was included!

I added the twine and twigs and that was it! I’d love to hear what you think!

Check out all three of my fall cards today as well as check out the rest of us on the hop today!
