You can see them here. Please link your project back to Scrapy Land Challenge blog. We have a bi-weekly challenge so it ends on Dec 1, 2015. You have a chance to win a $15.00 gift card from Scrapy Land. We are on Facebook so if you would like to join us.

 

I love the paper I used it is from Die Cuts with a View and the stack is called Gilded paper. Love all the gold the paper has in it. The sentiment on the outside came with the paper stack.

The die used on the inside and out:
Creative Expression Sue Wilson French Collection, corners, tag and border.
Creative Expression Sue Wilson Petite Vinery.

Closer look at the top area.

Used some delicata golden glitz ink on some of the leaves. The flowers came from my stash. had several of them.

Added one of the flowers to the inside. The sentiment came from The Angel Company. The delicata gold looks a little yellow here but I think it is the lighting.

I just love this corner die it is so beautiful. Had a couple of the petite vinery left over so added them to the inside.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Want to share with you a small tutorial that one of the guest designers posted on her blog, great idea in getting off all the small pieces of paper that stays on the dies.

Enjoy every moment

I’m a little late getting this posted today, sorry! It is time for The Outlaws Twisted Thursday challenge and the twisted for this week is PAPER PIECING. Our wonderful sponsor for the month of November is Ppinkydolls and the image I choose to use is called PRINCY. Love for you to stop by and check out all the designers cards and we have a 7 year junior guest designer this week and she did a wonderful card and gave it to her elderly Veteran neighbor, Mr. Bob.  Every year on Veteran's Day she makes Mr. Bob an art project.  This year I decided to draw him a picture of our American flag with the bald eagle. She is a very talented young lady. would love for you to join us.

I did burnish the front of the card and the edges of the die cut some with distress ink color peacock feathers. The spellbinder I used is called pearl effects.

To make the banners I used Creative Expression Sue Wilson frames and tags pierced flags.

The bottoms and ribbon set are from Stampin up called best year ever ribbon and best year ever bottoms. The 3 colors all come in the set. Then I match the coordination's paper up with the colors.

I want to tell you I tied these bows with a fork. This way they would be very small.

This is how the inside turned out, using most of the scraps. The sentiment is from TLC. I Used a border punch,  I have had for many years.

These are the copic markers used to color the image.

Here is a close up of those darling birds.

It has been a busy week, sorry about that but want to share everything with you. Have a super week end.

Memory Box pine needles border.
Embossing folder snowflakes

I sponged the embossing folder with Brilliance Mediterranean Blue ink.

This is the top of the outside of one of the cards. I cut the pine needle border twice, flipping around so they are not the same cut. Add some tiny snow flakes with Fiskars punch.

Close up of the bell, I love the detail the bell has on it. I added Stickles colors xmas red, green, gold and star dust.

The sentiment inside is from Penny Black clear set called Believe. Added some large gold pearls.

Just a closer look at the pine needles and the Christmas lights.

Only thing different on this card is I added the Christmas light.

Close up of the Merry Christmas.

Just fooling around, made one with a red background and embossed it and used Brilliance moonlight white over the embossed area. This was my first one I did not add two pine needles borders, I really like it with the two borders.

Punched out a star and add it to the left corner.

Added some large gold pearls to the bottom.

Hope you can join us this time. Thanks for stopping by.
