Harvest Blessings Thanksgiving Card – #TTTC257

Welcome to Tic Tac Toe Thursday.  I had the pleasure of creating this week’s challenge board.

And here’s what I came up with. I chose to go left diagonally: Harvest, Embossing, Metallic

Once again, I delved into my stash to come up with this card.  The patterned paper is from a DCWV pad.  I just love those pheasants!  The sentiment is from SU’s Country Home retired stamp set and is heat embossed.

The inside sentiment is from a very old (8/19) Paper Pumpkin kit: Gift of Fall.

Be sure to head over to the challenge HERE to see my fellow Team O teammates’ projects.  And I hope you’ll find some fun, fall inspiration from the challenge board and join us this week.

Thanks for stopping by.

Take care,

Rosanne

Attention Shoppers Birthday Card – PP705

After a long, hot summer without much stamping/card making time, I’m trying to get my mojo back.  Our weather has cooled down and I’ve spent some time reorganizing and getting acquainted with some new products that I’ve purchased in the last few months.  One of those sets is Stampin’ Up!’s Attention Shoppers bundle.  This is seriously one FUN set…and I’ve only made my first card with it!

How fun are those little gift bags!  I used patterned paper from my stash and used the paper piecing technique to create them.

And here’s a look at the inside.  The sentiment is from a long ago purchased set from CTMH.

Since creating this card, I can’t stop creating these little bags using a variety of different patterns…they are that much fun!

I’ve missed playing along with challenges, so I’m entering this card into Paper Players Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Take care,

Rosanne

Season of Gold & Green Thinking of You – #TTTC 255

Today I’m sharing a pretty Thinking of You card using Stampin’ Up!’s gorgeous Season of Green and Gold Designer Series Paper.  This is found on the Online Exclusives and it’s being marketed as a “holiday” paper but I think it goes well beyond the holidays as you can see how I used it here.  There are many occasions that this card would work for:  Friendship, Get Well, Hello, Just Because, etc.  The sentiment is from SU’s Layering Leaves stamp set and is heat embossed in gold.  Also, change the sentiment and basically use it for just about any occasion or gender.  It’s such an easy layout so you could change the patterned paper to customize as a feminine, masculine, child, or baby card, too.  I see a few more of these in my future!!

Here’s the measurements for the rectangles:  Green card stock:  1 3/4″ x 2 1/2″, Gold Foil:  1 5/8″ x 2 3/8″, 1 1/2″ x 2 1/4″.

It is Team O’s turn at the Tic Tac Toe Challenge.  I chose to go with the left diagonal:  Leaves, Rectangle, Sparkle/Shine.  I hope you’ll find inspiration from the board and share a project with us…we would love to see it!

And here’s a look inside.  For the sentiment, I combined two sentiments from a long ago retired SU set:  Climbing Roses.  I love to hang onto sets that have useful sentiments.  They really come in handy!

Thanks for stopping by today…I hope you’re heading into a wonderful holiday weekend.  If I’m honest, I’m not really sad to see the summer winding down.  I’m so looking forward to pulling out all my fall products this weekend.

Take care,

Rosanne

Let’s Book It! for CC2C

Welcome to August’s cross-country stamping adventure with Karen Hallam in CA and myself in PA.  This month we’re beginning our journey here with me in PA.  Our theme this month is “Book It”.  And since the school buses will be rolling here next week, I created a Back to School card.

We’re going to have a big Back to School day in our family as our oldest grandson, Jack is starting First Grade.  So in Jack’s honor, here is the card I made for our boy…

And here’s a peek inside…

If you haven’t already been out west to see Karen’s awesome card, please click HERE to check it out.

And here’s Jack yesterday at his new school’s Sneak-a-Peek.  Although he’s a little anxious, he’s also very excited!

 

 

Thanks for stopping by…enjoy your day!

Take care,

Rosanne
