Happy Satruday everyone. It is "Bold & Cheery" week at Dynamic Duos with the colors Summer Starfuit and Garden Green. You can find all the details over at the Dynamic Duos blog. Unfortunately, I needed a card for my Sister-in-Law whose mother passed away on Christmas day. She was 89 and had been in ill health for some time. Even though it is expected, it still leaves a void in your heart and I wanted to let her know I was thinking of her and keeping her in my prayers. I used MFT Smooth White CS, SU Basic Black and Garden Green CS, and Summer Starfruit DSP. The gingham check is stamped with MFT Textile Backgrounds in Garden Green ink. I cut the banner with MFT Fishtail Flags Layers Stax and embossed it with SU Snowburst EF. The sentiment and flower are from Verve's Wonderfully Made stamped on DSP twice and fussy cut. I sponged the edges of the flowers and leaves and added a dimensional between the flower layers, added a pearl to the center and adhered it with dimensionals. I also used Summer Starfruit dotted ribbon. My card is based on the Mojo Monday #326 sketch. I used the flower for the two elements on the banner. Now hop on over to the Dynamic Duos blog and see what my fellow teammates have created for your inspiration. I hope you can find time to play along. Thanks for stopping by. Happy Stamping, JoAnn

When I had my Thoughts and Prayers set out last week I thought I'd like to try inking it with markers and getting some Fall color in that tree. Then when I saw this card by Tina (aka GardenDiva), Queen for the Day this week, I knew I wanted to give it a try. This was my second try. The first tree was leaning like it'd been in a hurricane! Other than using the same tree, this doesn't look at all like Tina's card. I was also inspired by the lovely Fall colors from this card. Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge says ANYTHING GOES this week. It's sure to be a busy week over there! CASology's cue card says AUTUMN. Addicted to Stamps is calling for CAS The Thanksgiving Campaign at the Simplicity blog is for Thanksgiving cards. Since I'll be sending this as a Thanksgiving card, I'm going over there too. I agree with Susan that it's sad that Thanksgiving gets lost between Halloween and Christmas. But we can make every day a Thanksgiving day by just looking around us and counting our blessings. Card Recipe Stamps: Thoughts and Prayers, Take Care Ink: SU Markers (Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, Tangerine Tango, Old Olive, Cajun Craze), Soft Sky Paper: Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla Other: Stitched Mats Rectangles (Lil' Inker), Stampin' Sponge All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted I inked the stamp with markers first inking the trunk and branches. I inked all the leaves with the Pumpkin Pie then thumped all the other colors randomly. I gave it a good huff and stamped it. I dotted the "leaves" on the ground with markers and freehanded some falling leaves. They look like tear drops falling from the tree and I almost trashed it. It looks a little better to me today. Hopefully it will make a special someone happy. Oh, and I lightly sponged some Soft Sky around the tree. Thanks for stopping by to visit. Enjoy!
