Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you had a wonderful weekend, we sure did! It is the first day of school today...third grade, how did that happen? Plus I am having a Christmas card stamp camp tonight, so this will be short and sweet! I had been thinking that I needed to use some of the new purple hues that SU introduced, and when I saw Annie's card here for the Paper Players yesterday, I was inspired....not to make a purple octopus, but just some purple flowers! So here we go:
I used the CAS On Sunday (or is it Friday?)sketch:
I don't have any DSP in purples, so I began by stamping my horizontal panel with floral images from Beautiful Bouquet in Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape and Granny Apple Green, randomly stamping them to create my own DSP:
I stamped a sentiment on the Thick White Cardstock card front, then embossed it with the Subtle EF:
Finally, I stamped a spray of wee little flowers, accented by a larger one, and diecut it with a Stitched Shapes oval framelit, extended the stem:
I added a tiny mat of Granny Apple Green and a green center to my big flower! I think these colors are very pretty together! Thanks for popping in today!
Here is the second card that Cassidy made over the weekend; this is for her best friend/neighbor, Lee. Their birthdays are only about a week apart, and I get the feeling she understands what 8-year-old boys like....trucks and bulldozers! She used I Dig You, doing some layering and coloring with markers:
And when I told her the dirt pile looked like a pile of something else, she giggled and said "Yes, I KNOW!"....as I said, she is 8 too, LOL!
KIDS! Enjoy your day and be blessed!
