Happy Sunday, all! Jan is our Paper Players hostess and she's asking for a "love" theme this week...always a good choice!
I went in a different direction with my card, choosing a fall theme, but I still got some "love" in there! Here we go:
I stamped and diecut these little My Favorite Things Harvest Mice, then colored them in with inks and an aquapainter and put them on a Real Red panel that I embossed with the retired Cable Knit embossing folder:
I added a sentiment, stamped in Pecan Pie, and added a Pecan Pie mat to my embossed panel. Finally, on the Crumb Cake card base, I stamped the Buffalo Check stamp in white craft ink to add to the warm country feel!
Please be sure to check out what the Design Team created over at the Paper Player blog...they're beautiful! You'll get lots of inspiration so you can play along too!

What a cute card, LeAnne. Beautiful coloring on the mice. I love mice...just not in my house! That EF is one of my faves. I see you got some orange in there :-) Have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, this is just precious! I LOVE that red, cabled embossed background. Your little mice are the cutest and of course that sentiment makes me smile!!!!! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteOh, how adorable, LeAnne! I didn't see anything as cute as these guys at the orchard this year!

This is so sweet, LeAnne! Those mice are colored so nicely and look great with your embossed layer! The sentiment is perfect with the apples! TFS and enjoy your Sunday! There is a bit of Fall in the air this morning! :)
ReplyDeleteLeAnne... I have always loved this set. The knit background for fall was wonderful! The coloring is beautiful. Such a great card! Also thank you for the beautiful card! i so appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that embossing folder - it's the embodiment of home, warmth and love. Matched up with those cute wee mice, all wrapped up in warm woollies and the subtle plaid in the background it's a great love note.
ReplyDeleteThis card just makes me smile! I love all things cute and whimsy and this fits that perfectly! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love this set, in fact I used it the other day for an upcoming card! Your version is as sweet as it can be. Loving that sweet polka dot coat!
ReplyDeleteChiming in to say this is one of my favorite fall sets. I love what you've done with it! The cable knit folder looks so great as the background. Love that texture.
ReplyDeleteWell this sweet loved-up pair are just adorable - what a lovely way of combining our theme with the season too (loving the bold, cable knit embossed background!) Such a great card!
ReplyDeleteAdorable, LeAnne! The cable knit background against the buffalo plaid adds a cozy, country vibe. These mice are so cute and colored so perfectly. Of course, the sentiment steals the show!
ReplyDeleteCozy came to mind when I saw your sweet fall card, LeAnne! I love the subtle Buffalo plaid on the kraft card base and of course the cute mice on the red cable knit background! So darling!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, what a fabulous take on the challenge. I love the sentiment - and I am obsessed with that wonderful texture from the embossing folder. Reminds me of the one - and only - jumper I knitted. Your little mice are absolutely adorable
