A Simple 'Thank You'

Today is Remembrance Day here in Australia 

and each year I make a 

Thank You card with poppies.

I was so happy to see our Host Carol M

chose Thanks/Thanksgiving as our Word Challenge at

Just Us Girls

My granddaughter recently gave me a box of tissue paper

and ribbons and that is where the idea for my

 CAS card came from.

My SB die cut flower is scrunched up red tissue paper.

Added a stamen in the middle with a hint of glitter.

Popped lightly onto the textured background 

and again onto card base.

Simple thank you sentiment is 49&Market

inked and heat embossed clear.

There is such a variety of wonderful cards

presented to you on our blog from

Melissa and the Team so head over and check them out

and join in with yours to the Gallery.

PS - When this goes live I will be spending time

in the tropics with family celebrating birthday's

for my son in law and Miss Harper Jane's 1st.

A Fall/Harvest Theme at the Sisterhood of Crafters

It's time for out New Challenge at The Sisterhood of Crafters

with the Theme Fall/Harvest.

My card is fairly CAS, die cutting three

rectangles, inking with distress colours

and adding some grunge stamping to the edges.

My leaf is one I picked up with a bunch of others

walking back from the mailbox.

(I have a loooong driveway)

I popped the leaf, added some splatters,

simple sentiment and framed.

Finished by adhering to white card base.

Check out how the Sistah's chose to

create their Fall/Harvest cards and join in

with yours in our Gallery.

A Jolly Gnome's Christmas

It's time for our New Challenge at

I got out one of my cute Gnome stamps from Poppy Crafts,

 did a 'little' colouring and

fussy cut his hat from scrap DP

I popped him on top of a white SB die

and added a red frame behind it.

Thought a sparkly heart would be a nice touch.

Added a shaped DP piece as backing on white card stock

and adhered to red card base.

Sentiment is from STAMPlorations.

on their projects and come join in with yours
