A House of Cards

Wednesday, October 17, 2007

I am now...

one of the card designers over at Sketch This: Cards! blog. Thanks so much, Janelle, for giving me this awesome opportunity! There are so many wonderful sketches there to help jumpstart your creativity, and so many wonderful ideas. Here is my take on this week's sketch.



I used the new Scenic Route Salem line for this card. This has to be one of the cutest Halloween lines around!

I also have some Provo Craft projects to share. This month I was asked to use my Cuttlebug for one. I just love the script embossing folder. It adds so much dimension to any papercrafting project. I also used the funky circle frames, asterisks, and Olivia alphabet. So many wonderful dies to choose from! I also went a little sewing crazy on this one, which is SOOOOO easy for me to do.

I also got to play with their new Felt Fashions line. I LOVE this stuff!!! It is really heavy duty, not flimsy in the the least. And there are a bunch of cool shapes and color combos. My favorite is the green/purple/teal. Love, love, love these colors. I made a couple of monogram friendship bags. I think these turned out really cute. They are small and would be perfect for little gifts or gift cards. Christmas is right around the corner... ooooh, the possibilities... ;)

My last project is a card using the Destinations: Road Trip paper line and new chipboard. These papers are perfect for a masculine or a travel-themed project. And the new chipboard... OH MY! Love this stuff! So many cool shapes.



Well, that is it for me today. Thanks for coming by and taking a peek! I sure do appreciate all of your sweet comments. Hugs!
