rustic

slice of joy

As we reach the end of December, I have a couple Christmas cards left to share with you. Today I am mad for buffalo plaid! There is something about the red and black check that screams winter to me.

This card uses the Buffalo Check back ground stamp, Pretty Pines dies (retired) and Joy die from Stampin’ Up! and Crimped Frame and Wood Slices dies from The Greetery

A fun, rustic way to send some Christmas JOY! I am so excited to share my granddaughter’s first Christmas! It definitely adds a new JOY to the season! I hope you have a very Merry and Blessed Christmas!

Hello friends, so glad you are here today. Let’s play along with a Paper Craft Crew challenge! This week we have a fun Autumn Adventure inspiration photo to get those creative juices flowing.

Inspiration photos are fun because you can really go any direction from them. Color Combos, Layout, Images, theme are just a few ideas. For this picture, I was immediately drawn to the wood background. I had the perfect wood grain DSP to use! Next I focused on the autumn produce. Here is how it all came together.

I cut a square of Plaid Tidings DSP with a Stitched Square die and added it to the lower right corner for a table runner, napkin or placemat feel. I stamped the milk can and flowers from Country home and colored them with Copics. Image is cut out and popped up on dimensionals. Sentiment is stamped on vellum attached with a couple of brads with a strip of Bumblebee dsp behind. Finished off with some linen thread and silver pearls.

I love the fall country feel of this card! What inspiration can you find in this week’s PCC challenge?

Thanks for stopping by! Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!
