Just Us Girls #793 ~ Thankful for You

Hey there, are you ready for a new mood board from Just Us Girls? Bobby picked this pretty autumn scene for us. Here's my take on it!

I used an older PTI set to create a cluster of fall sprigs. They were attached to a die cut square (PPP) of 'wood ' paper and popped onto the embossed panel. A DeNami Design sentiment was stamped onto a PPP tag. I used a pumpkin colored brad to attach the tag. It was my nod to those Jack Be Littles! I coated the cotton with Wink of Stella, but it refused to be photographed!

Okay, friends you know the drill. Pick what inspires you from the photo and come play long with us!

Poppystamps

Due to some Typepad issues, I'll be sharing my Poppystamps card with you here today. I set out to make a masculine card. Take a look...

The Nordic Moose is taking himself a leisurely evening stroll among the sweet Wispy Trees! I created a big harvest moon using a basic circle stencil then reversed that process for my dusky sky. A few Fairy Jewels were sprinkled about to mimic stars. Finally, a sentiment from the Sentimental Banners set finished things off. 

You can find all of these products, and many more in the Poppystamps store! Thanks so much for stopping by today. See you soon!

Just Us Girls #792 ~ Count Your Many Blessings

 

Carol has a fun Word Week challenge for us at Just Us Girls... CONTAINER! I had lots of ideas and finally settled on this pretty little tea pot die from Paper Sweeties. It's an oldie, but a goodie as is the cute patterned paper I used. Take a look...

I remember making a card with this same paper a few years back. I must have loved it so much that I cut two, because this one was ready to go! The sentiment was tucked in the die pouch as well. I broke out an old DeNami Design stamp for the steam (I think I used that on the other one too!) and popped on a few rhinestones. A simple and cute container!

Okay, you know the drill. I'm sure you have some container stamps or dies in your crafty stash. Pick something and come play along. We would love to have you join us!

Sending Warm Wishes

I discovered I had one Christmas card from last year, photographed and in my drafts, that I had not shared. When I saw The Paper Players had a food challenge, I thought this big cookie fit right in!


The cute iced cookie is a Memory Box die. It was popped onto a polka dot panel cut with a Spellbinders die and finished off with a Memory Box tab sentiment. Easy peasy!


Off this goes to the gallery! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Bugs & Hisses

Hey there, I hope you had a good weekend! Ours was pretty laid back. We got a new computer and my hubby is spending hours getting everything transferred and set up. This is where we both do our photos... I'm trying to be patient! I put together this card for Freshly Made Sketches and it became our trail run. Photoshop was being difficult and then there is the whole watermark thing!


I topped my embossed pumpkins with a ring, spider, word bubble and sentiment, all from Poppystamps, along with a leaf by Pretty Pink Posh. A trio of purple rhinestones finished it off. I'll send this one to Sweet P who happens to love Halloween!

Thanks so much for popping in!
