Always Deliver Four Feathers

 I love digging through my retired stash, to find cardmaking

products.  I went looking, knowing that I needed a "thinking

of you" card with a slightly different message, that would 

work for a guy or a gal.  This is what I came up with, 

and the list of products used.

You Always Deliver set

Four Feathers set

Feathers dies

Rectangle Stitched dies

This and That Epic Day DSP

Soft Seedling with Tailor Made Tags

 I think that the Soft Seedlings is a great fall set, 

but I wanted to try to create a card that doesn't look like fall. 

It's such an elegant set, that should be used year around.

For this card, I used the following products:

Soft Seedlings set

Quiet Meadow (for speckles)

Tailor Made Tags dies

Timber 3D Embossing folder

Neutrals Candy Dots (retired)

Foil Sheet (retired) 

Heron Sunflower Perfect Plants Thoughts

 I admit that my head is not in the Thanksgiving or Christmas

game right now.  I am still sending out a lot of "thinking of you"

types of cards.

I used this layout a while back and really liked it.  It uses up

some of my "excess" or retired DSP and has a pleasing appearance.

For this card, I used the following products:

Sunflower Dies for the stems

Perfect Plant Dies for the pot

Hippo Dies for the flower on the pot

Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies for the circles

Heron Habitat for the sentiment

Pearlized Enamel Effects White

Gnomes

 The Gnomes Dies, in the July-December 2022 are pretty

darn cute. This set of dies makes it really quick and easy to

create your little gnome. I used the sentiment from the

coordinating Kindest Gnomes stamp set, and added the

red bow from a retired set of dies.  The background layer

and sentiment were cut out with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.

Heron Habitat

 The Heron Habitat Bundle is so pretty.  It has coordinating

dies so that you can stamp images or cut them out to form

beautiful groupings.  I really like the elegance of these images.

The sentiment comes from Quiet Meadow and was cut out

with the Stitched Rectangles dies.

Amazing Silhouettes Tree

I guess I should post a Halloween card, but I haven't 

made too many of those this year.  You'll have to settle for

a not so scary tree!

 

I really enjoy Amazing Silhouettes, because I can

create this specific card layout.   It is so easy to stamp 

the images in coordinating colors, cut them in strips 

and layer them.  It creates an interesting backdrop, 

for pretty much any sentiment.
