CHANGING SEASONS

Today I have two cards to share and enter into some challenges.
My first card features a rubber stamp from the Elisabeth Bell range she is called, 'Fall Willow Catching Leaves' she was a prize I won some while ago, I stamped her with Archival Black Ink, coloured with markers and added stamping around the edge with my 'sand effect' wood mounted rubber stamp that I have had for many years.  The papers are LOTV mounted onto both red and yellow card stock, I added some die cut leaves, flowers and banner silk sentiment.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:



My second card is all about Christmas and features a Magnolia stamp, this one is called Tilda Sitting On Present.
I have gone for a vintage style theme and colours that I love so much, the papers are Pion Silent Night 6 x 6 from Love and Live Crafts, I distressed the edges and cut out a couple of the tags that were included on the papers.
I coloured Tilda with markers then cut her out so I could 3d her, I have used several dies, Sissix Clock, Tattered Lace Snowflake, Tattered Lace Presents and an Arch, I added flowers, bark stars, frosted berries, lace and a stamped sentiment from Paper Artistry, finally I added some liquid pearls, gold Nuvo Glitter and Stickles Gold Distressed glitter glue.






I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Once again I am sending you all heartfelt thanks for your kindness and support for myself and my blog, I am hoping to get around to visit you all today but I may be late as my mum is coming over to me for some dinner.
I am going to give her a lovely hot bowl of homemade stew that I know she loves.
My brother will drop off a little later so he can do some shopping.
Take care
hugs

Love love LOVE your pretty new blog appearance, Lorraine! Beautiful soft colors, and yummy, fresh background. VERY NICE! Your Elisabeth Bell creation is my fave - she is adorable, and that pretty satiny ribbon looks fabulous on the card - just the right amount of pop!

Your gorgeously created "time" card is very pretty with the fun embellies and all the incredible details! Both are wonderful cards!

MaryH said...

Big WOW on both of these pretty cards. Love the designs on each one of these - and the bright cheery fall colors on #1. I like the way you've done the layout on that one. #2 is so elegant & dimensional, great treatment with the clock motif, and surprise additions of the elegance with the flowers and delicate lace. A wonderful richness of Christmas cheer. TFS & Hugs
