ODBD Sneak Peek - His Gift!

I made this card with this week's MMSC29 sketch...I ended up making the card a tad bigger then the normal A2 size to get this wonderful new image called His Gift from Our Daily Bread Designs to work with the sketch, bit I think it worked out okay!

The image was colored with copics and then sprayed all over with vanilla breeze glimmer mist, along with the white base piece and the sentiment. The picture to the right lets you see just how much the card sparkles!! The small DP panels are from Basic Grey's Eskimo Kisses, and to finish off the card, I added two different sized red satin ribbons, and some dark red gems!

Thanks so much for visiting today! Also, December 1st is ODBD's official release date with another fun blog hop, so don't forget to come back then for all the fun!!

Fall Thoughts - Easel card!

Happy Kitchen Sink Monday!! Since Thanksgiving is this week, SSCC14 is challenging us to make a fall card! Ever since I saw these wonderful Multi Step Big Leaves from Kitchen Sink Stamps, I thought they would look perfect on an Easel card! These easel cards are super simple...they were actually a technique lovers challenge over on SCS a few weeks ago...so for more deets on how to make one of these, you can head over there!

I started my card, by stamping the different leaves all of my card front. The colors for my leaves are as follows:

Red Maple Leaves: Rose Red, Ruby Red, Real Red, Chocolate Chip

Orange Oak Leaves: Apricot Appeal, Pumpkin Pie, Really Rust
Yellow Leaves (you will have to excuse this desert rat, I am not sure what type of leaves these are LOL!!): Barely Banana, So Saffron, More Mustard

I then sponged/distressed the edges of my card front with a bit of scattered straw and spiced marmalade distress ink. to finish off the front, I added a bit of red ribbon and a Tim Holtz "thoughts" charm.

For in inside, I added another oak leaf layered on a labels 8 Nestabilities, with a bit more of the same red ribbon as the front!

Please head on over to see what all the other Crew members have in store for you today!
