The Crafter's Cafe Challenge #251 seasons

This card is about 5 x 7.  I used this digital image from Eureka - Matthew 2:1-2.  The challenge for the rest of the month at the Crafter's Cafe is "seasons", so I chose the Christmas season.  You might even try food seasoning like salt and pepper.  As you can see, I have used several layers.  Stars and Scripture begin with S.  Things I love include the Scripture, Washi tape, and patterned paper.  I also really like die cuts.  This die is from a set from Peachy Cheap.  I layered the yellow and black,, but must admit it is a challenge to adhere skinny letters!

I know Blogger is changing, and I do not do well with change, so I hope the following links will work.

Crafter's Cafe DT card Challenge #242 - Feminine

For this challenge at the Crafter's Cafe I selected this image #832 from My Besties.  I chose to highlight a few of the flowers with a water color pencil. Shiny acrylic gems are used as the centers forthe dimensional flowers. I hope you will join us during the next two weeks with your lovely feminine cards.

Thank you #2

I like this sketch for the simple thank you cards I needed.   Image - Stampin Up;  teal and white twine; shiny stickles on the flowers;  Spellbinder circle dies;  corner rounder punch.  You probably cannot see it, but the card is mounted on a white cs base

Just for you

Another card to add to my stash.  I used Washi tape, patterned paper, and Prima flowers from my collection.  I seldom stamp directly on the background paper - I need to remember I can do that!

In memory of Bev

This freebie printable from TLC is just right for a sympathy card to send to our friend whose wife passed away recently.  It is pre colored.  The sentiment is an old favorite stamp by Paper Inspirations.  I kept the background simple - the color is close to Hunter green.  I added some acrylic dots to tie the images together.
