Fall flowers card


I really stepped outside of my comfront zone to try and use my stamp set from
CTMH called Paper Garden, I used a 7 x 5 kraft card, and on top
of that I used a 6 1/2 x 5 1/2 white card stock. The colors I used
to stamp where also from CTMH, Honey, Autumn Terracotta, Pear, 
I had so much fun stamping and really like it. I cut a tag from my
Cricut explore, and then stamped the words on it. Any words
would go with this card I think. Hope you enjoy it as much as 
 I had fun making it.

Art Impression, Live, Laugh,Love, card,

Here is another card made with the Live, Laugh, Love, Art Impression clear stamp set. I used a 5 1/2 x 7 kraft premade card paper, with a white card paper cut out and used  a corner punch to punch the corners out. I also used a pale pick to distress the edges and corners. I stamped the picture with black ink. Then used assorted markers to color it in. The embossing poweder Wow was used  for the words live,laugh,love, on a tag. I really enjoy  these stamps sets , they bring a little laughter on the cards and for the lucky person who will get them.

Live, Laugh Love Art Impressions, clear stamps

This is a new fun stamp set, I stamped it with black ink, then used different markers Close to my heart and Coptic markers, I am pretty new at this so I am learning what works the best. I am happy with both kinds.  I used a soft pink color for distressing the edges and tags. The inside I used a new embossing folder called confetti from CTMH , I really like it, I also used Tim Holtz mini ink blending tool. I used the soft pink ink again. The tags I made with my cricut explore. I can't wait to give this card to one of my friends.

I am new at this but here it goes.

Intro for me , I am a 54 a farm wife,and have been married for 34 years, and have six kids, and my youngest is a senior. I also have 4 grandkids, with another on the way. My family is the reason I live every day. I have worked outside the home with many jobs. but getting hurt and getting sick has grounded me and made me soul search of what I love to do and can do. I had done crafts of all kinds before I had kids, And have found my love for them again, yes lots of things have changed. I am truly excited every morning when I get up to see what I can do today. So bare with me and my learning how to blog. And my journey of my new life.
