Feels Like Home And Budding Peony Card

Welcome to GIRLplusPAPER and my entry for the Mojo Monday sketch challenge number 507.

These challenges can really jumpstart your creativity if you need a little push.

Today I am sharing a card made with Close To My Heart’s Feels Like Home paper paired with the Budding Peony Stamp and Thin Cuts set.

You might also notice that I used Close To My Heart's Stitched Rectangular Frames Thin Cuts to create the bottom two layers of my card.  I then drew in my stitches using a LePen.

After stamping the peony with Intense Black Ink, I used my favorite Watercolor Pencils along with my handy dandy Clear Shimmer Brush to shade my flower and leaves.  Look carefully and you might see that the peony sits upon two Thin Cut Circles, one from the Stitched Circles Thin Cuts, and another from the Basic Circles Thing Cut set.  And that little piece of Sugarplum Glitter paper...that was made with our Decorative Borders Thin Cuts!

To embellish my card even more, I glued down some tiny sequins from my Silver Loose Sequins pack, and added some Silver Embellishing Thread.

Thank you, Mojo Monday, for another inspiring sketch!

Heart & Home Cards

Welcome to GIRLplusPAPER, and my entry for the January, 2019, Joyful Stars Blog Hop.  If you have arrived here from Joyce's blog, Joyful Creations, you are on the right path!

For my post this month, I would like to share a set of three cards made with one of my favorite new stamp sets out of our Seasonal Expression 1 Idea Book.  It is called Heart and Home.  I have paired it with patterned cardstock from the Feels Like Home paper suite.  The images were colored using our ShinHan markers.  These cards might just have de-throned my Bushel and a Peck card set in my heart.  Yikes!  Did I just say that???

I added some greenery and a little flower, all cut from  the Decorative Borders Thin Cuts.  A little bling was also required, so I found the tiniest of sequins from my Loose Silver Sequins and adhered them to some of the flowers.  The Light Gray Ribbon added the perfect little bow, don't you think?

Thank you for stopping by this month to visit me!
