Fall Birthday

Hello! Today I have a Fall Birthday card to show you. Nothing says fall to me like Mums! I'm partial to the rust and/or burgundy colored ones.  I know they have them out at Easter time too but it's just not the same, at least not to me. I prefer Daffodils and Tulips then! Anyway on to my card. It uses a stamp from the former Paper and Such company, the sentiment is from SU. I colored it with my Prismacolor pencils. After mounting my image to the scalloped oval I decided to emboss them together. Love the look/texture this gives. It's kinda hard to see in my picture but I added a rhinestone to the center of the mum. The sketch and challenges I used are listed below. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Think Spring

Hello! Spring keeps trying to arrive early here in PA(although not this weekend!!) so I thought I'd make a daffodil card since mine started blooming last week! I posted a picture below. The Freshly made sketch this week was perfect for larger images. I had this Daffodil image (from the former Paper and Such company) in my already colored pile so I decided to fussy cut it out and place it on some DP. I tend to avoid chevron patterns but thought it looked really good paired with the daffodils??! I added a sentiment from PTI an randomly placed some rhinestones to finish it off. I'm happy with how it all turned out! What do you think?? Well off to try an make another card yet today can't believe the weekend is almost over! Challenges are listed below.
