{ Card kit Monday–Frames and Leaves }

Hello and happy Monday! I have a brand new kit for you today! This is a card kit, but you can use it on a layout or any other project you choose. The files can be made bigger or smaller as needed.

Here is what I created today.

Thanks by Daniela Dobson

I wanted to do a heat embossed background with watercolor for this card.  I stamped Mosaic Tile and heat embossed it on watercolor paper. You can see my other example in this card HERE. I used the “thanks” frame and leaves only. There are so many possibilities with this kit. I will show you something different next week. I cut two leaves out of vellum and one out of cardstock. I added stitching to the card and leaves. I used my watercolor crayons for the background. Love them. They are so vibrant!

{ Happy World Card Making Day 2015 }

World Card Making Day is a holiday created by card makers for card makers. It started off years ago as a a day to kick off the busy holiday card making season, but it's become a day in recent years to celebrate making all kinds of cards. Here is a card I created for this special day using Technique Tuesday dies.

Hello by Daniela Dobson

I created this card using a triangle silhouette cut file from Card Kit Monday. On top of that I layered  the Hello Butterfly, This Tag, Label and Say It - Hello steel dies. I used washi tape, twine and sequins to finish  the card.

{ Impression Obsession DT challenge – Fall Florals }

Hi and welcome to our  Impression Obsession challenge – Fall Florals.

Here is my card.

Gratitude by Daniela Dobson

Pretty easy card once I figured out what I wanted to do. I stamped the background with Cover-a-card Wood Gran. Then, it was all die cutting. Lots of leaves, as you can see. The sentiment is from Be Grateful stamp set. I splattered some color shine at the end and added some twine.
