Happy Friday, peeps! Yay, the weekend is here! My card today is for the Shopping Our Stash challenge, which features some gorgeous regal shades, and I used the sketch from Inspired By; the theme was adorable but I had been thinking about these images for a couple of days and the sketch fit, so I went with it! Here are the prompts:
So my images aren't quite to scale like the sketch, but hopefully it will be okay! Here we go:
I stamped these Fall: Take Three Papertrey images in Old Olive, Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie, then used a W+9 die to cut them out. The sentiment is from a Right at Home set called Grateful Heart:
To give some interest to the Pretty Peacock background, I first stamped it with the retired Linen background stamp, then embosssed it with the Cane Weave embossing folder. If you look closely, you can see the "weave". I added a little Linen braid trim because in the photo, the rug and lamp are natural colored and I liked the contrast. On the inside, a sentiment from the PTI set:
I think these rich jewel tones are just beautiful! And I am going to pop this in over at the Time Out challenge as well, as their theme is gratitude:
Thanks for visiting today!
A few more pictures from Longwood:
These are certainly jewel-toned as well! Nature is beautiful! Enjoy your day and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteGratitude really does change everything and I love seeing that sentiment on this wonderful card. Those flower photos are amazing to see, thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy seeing your cards and I really enjoy the garden pics...all are beautiful. Have a blessed weekend.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful use of these colors, LeAnne! I love how you stamped and embossed the background! There are so many different chrysanthemum blooms and I am enjoying these photos!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so gorgeous, LeAnne! I love the regal jewel colors and those darling little harvest images!
ReplyDeleteNow, I hope I remember to do this stamp before/embossing after technique. It's wonderful!
I'm going to pin this sentiment on my desk for a while - it is just what I need to remember right now.

ReplyDeleteThis is so lovely LeAnne! I love the stamped images (which fit so perfectly onto these postage stamp dies I thought they must have been made for each other), your choice of colours is wonderful, as is your layout, textured background (love the addition of the twine) and sentiment! Thanks for sharing with us at Time Out Challenges!
