3 and 1

Tonight I got to design my cards and 3-D project for Friday Night's Stamping Fun.Hence the name for my title, 3 and 1. :)  Here are the things I came up with.  This first card was CASED from here on SCS.  I changed a few things but loved trying these colors together.  Olive, marina mist and pretty in pink.  The background was brayered then sponged with marina mist.  Then I cut olive paper for the scallop.  I stamped the flowers in black to make this look like an evening scene.  I used my 1 inch punch to punch out a sticky note.  I had the sticky note on there the whole time I was brayering and sponging.  When I removed the circle I sponged a little bit so the moon wouldn't be so white. I like the softer look.  I added pearls to two flower centers and a sparkly olive brad to the little banner.

This second card is using Gently Falling two-step stamping set.  Fun to use to be sure.  I stamped the leaf in cajun then burgundy for the detail stamp.  I used crumb cake and brown for the acorns. I tore paper above and below the image.  I also added stamping to the envelope.

This was a small white bag I picked up at Hollo's in brunswick.  I used the take a sip wheel with chocolate chip ink for the bag.  I then used Like it a Latte retired SU set for the latte.  I added ridinghood red ribbon and layered the circles.  The latte foam is made with dimensional fabric paint with glitter that I found in Joann's.  I put it on then used my heat tool to dry it.

I stamped using cajun craze ink on the crumb cake paper along the border.  I put crumb cake cardstock through the cuttlebug with the tree bark embossing folder.  I cut out the top note in cajun craze and a light brown paper. I stamped in garden green then stamped off to make the trees in the back.  I sponged crumb cake around the light brown top note  piece.  I added Happy Birthday using garden green ink. 

I hope the ladies like these projects.  I've begun putting things together for our show.  Here's one of the boxes I got at Hollo's on Brunswick that is filled with 4 cards and envys.  I added stretchy cord and some holly.  What do you think?  Jan and I made a dozen cards yesterday and packaged them in a clear box from Hollo's in Brunswick.  I added stretchy cord and holly.

Thank you for stopping by.  I'm happy I have these designed, now all I have to do is cut paper.
I hope our rain stops soon, or we'll be building an ark here in Cleveland...............rain, rain, go away, come again another day.............LOL.
Blessings,
