Cottage Wreath

 
This card is one of the cards I made for the Stampin' Up! World Card Making Day Event.

The card starts with a Crumb Cake cardstock card base that has been randomly stamped with Crumb Cake ink using the "berry" stamp from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set.

The Basic White cardstock top panel has been stamped five times, forming a circle, using Old Olive ink and the larger leaf stamp from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set.

The wreath on top was made by water coloring two pieces of Shimmery White cardstock using a Water Painter Brush and Old Olive ink.  Once the cardstock had dried, the wreaths were cut out using the two detailed wreath dies from the Country Wreath dies. The wreaths were adhered onto the card front panel using Mini Glue Dots. 

The Country Wreath dies along with the Cottage Wreath stamp set are sold as a bundle or can be purchased separately.

The bow was also made by water-colored onto Shimmery White cardstock using a Water Painter and Flirty Flamingo ink.  Once the cardstock had dried, the bow was cut out using the detailed bow die from the Country Wreath dies. The bow was adhered onto the wreaths using a Mini Glue Dot.

The top panel was adhered onto the card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set and has been stamped onto Basic White cardstock using Crumb Cake ink.  Once stamped the sentiment was adhered onto the card front using a Stampin' Dimensional.

Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels were added randomly onto the wreath for added accent.

Halloween Wreath

This card was a fun and easy card to make!

The card base is Thick Basic White cardstock.

The next panel is Pumpkin Pie cardstock, followed by Basic Black cardstock.

The top panel is Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper (DSP).

The wreath was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock using the twig wreath stamp from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set.

The bow was cut out using Pumpkin Pie cardstock and the bow die from the Country Wreaths dies.

The pumpkins and ghosts are fussy cut from one of the Halloween theme papers in the Celebrate Everything DSP.  The pumpkins were colored using Pumpkin Pie and SU400 Stampin' Blends.

The sentiment is from the Scary Cute stamp set.  The sentiment was stamped in VersaMark ink onto Pumpkin Pie cardstock and then heat embossed with Black Embossing Powder.

The spider from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set has been stamped onto Basic White cardstock using VersaMark ink and then heat embossed using Black Embossing Powder.

Matte Black Dots were added randomly to the front of the card for accent. 
Here's a look at the inside of the card.

The spider is from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set and has been stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.  

The sentiment is from the Scary Cute stamp set and also has been stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

Slow start....

 Summer sure got off to a slow start with cold, wet weather.  We really didn't get good weather until July, which is usually when our weather starts turning bad again.

Anyway, July and August this year were awesome months.  I am so happy how my porch flowers turned out considering that they really didn't even start growing until mid-July.

Only one pot didn't really grow much and a couple didn't get mature enough to have flowers, but overall I am very pleased!
