I don’t know why October is giving me such a hard time, but I just can’t seem to keep up with myself! Anyway – I missed Garden Party yesterday, so I thought I’d go ahead and post it today. If you remember, this is the picture from last week. I started with the lower right circle and ended up with this. The color palette is different (although there is orange in both). But I got to use my new Basic Grey Ambrosia paper pad. I really like this Basic...

The leaves are changing all over the place here. We live near Swarthmore Collage and it has a beautiful arboretum on campus. The trees are just starting to turn now, but in a week or so parts of it will be just breathtaking. So here is a fall card I made – I was just playing around with my Copic markers. The wreath stamp is from the Large Autumn Wreath cling set from Serendipity Stamps. It is large – but so fun to color! I used my Nestibility dies to cut the...

The image is from the HOTP Botanicals clear set. I stamped it with Broken China Distress ink on...

Its Tuesday – Garden Party day where a clipping from the “Inspiration Shoebox” is used for card inspiration. Well, I wanted to toss this one aside and pick something else – but I was told that would be cheating. So I attempted it. This one was a real stumper for me. My first card was yuck – big time. I thought maybe a beautiful stamp image might save me from myself. So here is my attempt. I don’t know about the card in total – but...

Its Garden Party time again – where a clipping snatched out of the “Inspiration Shoebox” is used for the basis of a card. Here is the inspiration photo from last week. I’m thrilled to say that I had TWO players this week – you guys must like fall! First is Tiffany from IHeartArt with her wonderful floral card. I love the colors and all the layers of flowers. You can see her card HERE. Next is Debbie from 1of2Shoes with her awesome nature card – it goes so...
