30 Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 2

Good morning!

I'm still enjoying running around the Icelandic countryside, today it's off to the South Coast with black sand beaches and waterfalls, so exciting.  I'm back today with another gratitude card using the Artfully Layered stamp set.  This card was really easy, I just worked on layering the different stamps in the set using Crumb Cake, Mossy Meadow, and Soft Sea Foam ink on Very Vanilla cardstock.  I did some stamping off to add different layers of color.  After all the stamping was done I sponged all over using Crumb Cake ink.  This piece was matted with Mossy Meadow cardstock and then attached to the Soft Sea Foam cardfront.

To finish off the card I stamped the greeting on Very Vanilla cardstock with Soft Sea Foam ink and then added faux stitching around the edges with Mossy Meadow ink before sponging with Crumb Cake ink.  I attached the greeting with dimensionals and then added a loop of Evening Evergreen 3/8" Windowpane Check Ribbon coming out the top and a couple of Rustic Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots.

What do you think?  I like how we're able to use so many of the images included in the stamp set to make a simple card with lots of texture!

30 Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 1

Good morning!

I've taken a break from doing my 30 Day Gratitude challenge but I wanted to get back at this year.  I'm currently traveling in Iceland (and having an amazing time) so I'm going to do my best the first few days while I'll I'm on the road.

Today's card uses the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and I used the Stampin' Blends to color in all the flowers and leaves (always love a little color therapy with the Blends and then used my Paper Snips to fussy cut out all the elements.  

To assemble the card I started with Crumb Cake for the cardfront and then added a piece of Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper that's matted with Basic Black cardstock.  I added another strip of coordinating DSP from the same pack along the left side.  Then I attached the flowers and added a double bow using Linen Thread.  The greeting was stamped with Basic Black ink on Crumb Cake and then fussy cut before attaching with dimensionals.  The final touch was to add some Rustic Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots.

This card is so cheery it will bring a smile to anyone's face, perfect!
