Let’s Talk Turkey!!!

Happy Monday crafty friends,
Hope you had an enjoyable weekend. With Halloween officially behind us, it is time to “talk Turkey”.  So I decided to start out November with a really quick and easy card.

I used some papers from the DCWV Halloween and Fall Stack. I started with a plain kraft cardstock base. I used the pre-colored version of the digital turkey stamp. Once I printed it out, I added some extra dimension to him by coloring him in with my various copic markers. This made it really fast and easy. I then added a border with some paper and then some olive ribbon and was done!

Here’s another card I created that was also really quick and simple. I used the same layout for this card to make it super simple. I also once again used the pre-colored Cornucopia digi and printed it out. I then added some quick dimension by using a few of my Copics. I used more of the same DCWV Halloween and Fall stack papers and added another border and ribbon. For this one I also used some May Arts hemp cord and a little button. Another fast and easy design.

Lots of Love Blog Hop

Happy Sabbath crafty friends!

So glad you dropped by! Today is special as the PCW design team is participating in the Lots of Love Blog Hop. It is a small hop filled with lots of love and inspiration. Only 8 stops along the way! Mine is the first blog, so if you’re here you are in the right place! I have two projects to share with you. 

 First up:

I Love You A Latte Card

Here’s a look at the front of my card. I used some papers from the DCWV Halloween and Fall Stack. I used the latte cup digi image from PCW and colored it in with my Copics. The photo corners are from the Christmas Blessings cut files set and the decorative element behind the cup is from the Deco Elements 1213 cut file set. 

Here is a closer look at the colored digi. I used my copic markers to color it.
I used: W00, W1, YR000, YR61, E04, R24, E13 and E25

Here is a view of the card opened up. It is a an easel card. I will be writing a personal note in the  circle. The leaves are from the beautiful card cut file set and the scalloped circle is from the basics cut file set.

Now for my second project

Nuts For You Layout

Here is a view of my entire layout. I used some cute Bo Bunny paper for the background. I cut the squirrels and all of the svg cuts from the Nuts For You SVG  Layout set from PCW

Here is a closer look at the two squirrels holding their hearts…ready to give their little hearts away to each other. I used some Chocolate ink from the basics ink pad set 

to ink around the brown pieces of the bodies. I used some Saddle ink from the basic ink pad set to ink around the tan body parts. I used the blush ink from the Whimsy Ink Pad set for the hearts.

I used charcoal ink from the Basics ink pad set for around the red heart. I used the Autumn Terracotta ink from the Enchantment ink pad set to ink around the edges of the peanuts.

Here is a closer look at some of the peanuts at the bottom of the mat. I also used some foam adhesive to give some of the peanuts a little lift.

Here is a closer look at the little squirrel topper. I used some dry decorator chalk to give their faces the finishing touches. I used the chalk marker to give their eyes and noses their shine marks as well as the hearts.

Here is the blog hop line up

Sunflower Tri-Fold Card

Hello crafty friends,

Today’s post is of a quick card I made the other day. It was for a challenge in one of the Facebook groups I belong to. We were to create a tri-fold card.

So here is what I came up with.

Here’s a look at my finished card. I used the tri-fold card cf from PCW. The pretty patterned papers are from the DCWV Halloween and Fall Stack.

Here is a closer look at the big pretty sunflower. I actually cut the brown top piece out of plain white cards stock and then inked it with my Saddle Ink Pad using a dabbing technique to achieve the “textured look. I used my Autumn Terracotta Ink Pad to ink the edges of the flower as well as the New England Ivy Ink Pad for the leaves from the Enchantment Ink Pad set. I also used some Bisque Liquid Pearls  to add some pearl accents to the front of the top flap of the card.

Here is a view with the top flap open. Perfect for my thanksgiving sentiment. This view also shows the pretty leafy panels that are a part of the cut file set. I simply cut them out of kraft paper and then added a layer of that pretty yellow-orange patterned paper underneath.

Here is a view of the entire card open. I left the inside middle blank as I will be sending this card on to IFTL for their card drive this month. They are trying to get 200 cards to be able to give one to each resident at a senior care facility. So PLEASE head over there now and get the details. Take a few moments of your crafty time to create a few cards and pop them in the mail. Madison and Cindy will be so grateful and I know they will be a blessing to the recipients.
