CSS Alumni October 9 Blog Hop

[Karen Knegten]

Well- we are here again with more inspiration for you. If you have arrived from Jen Charboneau's blog, you are in the right place. If you would like to start at the beginning, click here- then click on Forum to get to this Blog Hop announcement.. This time around our hop is based on the sketch below.

For my card, I started with a base of Gina K Pure Luxury Pumpkin Spice CS. I matted a piece of Pure Luxury Ivory with Chocolate CS, which I scored with my Scor-Pal. I matted another piece of chocolate CS, embossed with the Cuttlebug onto a piece of Pumpkin Spice. For the top layer, I stamped a background of Melanie's Wild at Heart and text bg from Autumn Splendor. I sponged over that, so it is very subtle, and added a little tassel and a brad at the bottom. I then popped up two sunflowers from the Autumn Splendor stamp set, that I colored with Copics. The sentiment is from the Versatile Verses set.


Ta-da.... here is my card.

Thank you so much for stopping by, and now please head over to Kay's blog and check out her creation.
