Autumn -October CCC Card

 Hello and welcome to another Card Chain Challenge share. For this one I tried to use as many of the options as possible. 

I separated the Autumn of this retired Quietfire Design stamp used it on the outside as a stand alone sentiment and placed the remainder of the quote on the inside. I had fun doing an Iris fold inside, actually behind the maple leaf. This is a great way to use up all those little bits of scrapbooking paper as the strips are only 1/2" wide.

Thanks for stopping by,

Believe Card

Hello, back to share this colourful card I made for an exchange

in the LOVE handmade cards + flicker group.

  

     I combined several of my favorite stamp sets to make this card. 

The Dragonfly is from the Butterflies / Dragonflies , Believe and  Created by hand

all from Quietfire Design .

The flower is from a set called Carved Flowers from Dark Room Doors.

To achieve the back ground I sponged Lindy's Stamp Gang -Moon shadows onto a pc of  white cardstock. 

Then stamped the Flower, Dragonfly and Believe with Perfect Medium and added Lindy's SG Duo coloured embossing powder and heated with heat tool.

Went around edge with Glitter Paint Sharpie and coloured dots to match. Added ribbon and adhered to Pattern Cardstock base.

Lindy's Stamp Gang Moon Shadows and Duo Coloured Embossing Powder are available at Quietfire Design as part of the French Heritage Kit 

Hope you have a crafty day too!

Queen of Hearts - Thinking of You

Welcome to the Queen of Hearts Event!
Here is my contribution!

For my 5"x 7" Card I used the small Thinking of You stamp from Quietfire Design
I cut the Birch Trio and Bird Memory Box Dies from card stock and set aside. Then inked up the back of the  Birch Trio die with Iced Spruce DI and stamped it onto card front to create a shadow for the trees. I created the snowy background and sky with pastels and a torn strip of card stock as a mask (photo detail).

Starting at the base of each tree I painted the tree shadows on the snow with Iced Spruce DI. When all was good and dry I attached the Birch Trio die cut over the tree shadow. Then randomly sprayed Smooch Spritz on all but the sky area.

I cut a strip of Vellum and stamped Thinking of You with Jet Black Archival Ink then again with Silver Encore Ink. Once ink was dry I attached Vellum to card front with Double sided tape. To complete the card I added the Ribbon and Bird die cut.

Thanks for hopping by! Jutta

Tranquility - Vellum Gift Twists

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to share with you a couple of Gift Twists I made inspired by 

Holly's beautiful - No Act of Kindness Gift Twist 

over at Quietfire Creations Throwback Thursday .  

I started by cutting an 8-1/2"x11" pc of Vellum in two. Which I then dry embossed and coloured on the inside with dye ink.

Using a SBE I die cut both front and back of the Blue GT and the front edge of the Pink GT.

I fastened the side and back with double sided tape then wrapped each with coordinating decorative tape.

The Labels were die cut (heart - Memory Box, butterfly -Cheery Lynne) and stamped using Stazon  with Six Gentle Word's Tranquility from Quietfire Design and embellished. 

To complete I inserted zip top bags filled with scented bath salts before tying the Gift Twists with ribbons.

Pink Vellum Gift Twist.

Blue Vellum Gift Twist.

These were easy and fun to make and I’m very pleased with how they turned out.

Now I’m thinking I need to make some more twists to fill with chocolate kisses for my littlest Valentines.

What will you put in your gift twist?

Thanks for the visit , enjoy your day!
Jutta
