Count My Blessings
Back to thinking about Autumn cards. For today's card I used the Count My Blessings stamp set in the Holiday catalog. Since I did not purchase any Fall Designer Series Paper, I made my own background by stamping an image around the edges using brown Memento ink. I then colored the leaves using two Spectrum Noir markers. After stamping the sentiment I die cut it using a Square Stitched framelit. The next size stitched framelit was a little too big, so I just layered the sentiment on Cajun Craze cardstock, leaving a small border. When stamping the image, I knew I was going to add twine, so I left a small portion of the edge not stamped. Some pretty sequins filled in a little of the white space. After adhering the layers to the card base, I was wishing I had used some Copper ribbon or copper metallic thread. Oh well, next time! Have a great weekend and find yourself a little stampin' time.
I am married (50 years now~~oh my!) and have two children:
Jen and Matt. Jen and her husband blessed us with a beautiful granddaughter who is now 19 years old. I am also a "grandma" to five dogs, 2 birds and more! My dog, Charlie, is our spoiled Shihtzu and I have a cute little parrotlet, Nipper, that is 8 years old.
