Not 2 Shabby August Monthly Mood Board Challenge-Cozy...

Hello, hello! 

I'm swinging in to share a card I designed for Not 2 Shabby's August Monthly Mood Board Challenge! If you have yet to join us, I sure hope you will! :) And did I mention you have a chance at winning a $15 gift certificate to the Not 2 Shabby Shop?!...(More details about the challenge below.)

Without further ado, here is my card...

I drew some inspiration from both the colors and images. I kept things simple, even if it may look like a lot. Seriously, so easy. ;) How about we make this card?!...

• Start with using the EZ Wonder Die #1 with patterned papers. Then set aside.

• Take the EZ Wonder Die #1 Add-On large square and use it with patterned paper.

• Taking the some of the die cut pieces from the first step, choose what pieces you'd like to use. In this case: striped paper for the circle (inside the square), the little banner, and larger banner. Leaf paper for the square (with hole in center). 

• Layout pieces on top of the large square from step two. (Don't adhere things yet, you just want an idea of where to put things.)
• Next, choose some ephemera pieces to fill in the circle in the center. Then set things aside.

• Take some patterned paper and cut to fit an A2 cardbase. 
• Adhere paper to cardbase.

• Adhere the large square to the card, towards the top of the card/higher up on the card.
• Adhere the square with the circle in the middle onto the large square, using foam tape on the back.
• Adhere the striped circle into the center and striped banner to the upper left corner (use foam tape on the back of the banner).
• Adhere ephemera to the center (use foam tape only on the back of the coffee cup).
• Set things aside.
• Stamp on sentiment on white cardstock using black ink.
• Trim cardstock with the stamped sentiment into a 'banner/narrow strip'.
• Adhere to the card.
• Add sparkling enamel dots.

• Add burlap twine by sentiment/banner.

Fun, right?!...I hope I have inspired you, today!

Once again, I went with using the EZ Wonder Die #3 along with some fall critters. Cute, right?!...Let's make this card! 

• Use marker friendly white cardstock and stamp on images in black ink.

• Use the coordinating die with the colored images. 

• Add highlights with a white gel pen.
• Set aside.

• Use the EZ Wonder Die #3 with patterned paper. Repeat this step for the two different papers.

• Using only the three squares from the patterned paper, adhere them to the main postage die.
• Set aside.

• Use marker friendly cardstock and stamp on sentiment using black ink.
• Color the two images on the sentiment and add highlights.
• Use the coordinating die with the colored sentiment.

• Adhere die cut images to postage die. Adding foam tape only on the back of the sentiment, bear, the one bigger leaf at top of the umbrella, and the bigger leaf and acorn at the bottom by the bunny/pumpkin.

Hello fall, gnome

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?!...

I'm swinging in today to share a fun fall card with you! I made this 'just for fun' card to play along with the Not 2 Shabby August Monthly Mood Board Challenge. If you haven't seen or played with any of the challenges, you should certainly join! :) They are so fun and easy to play along! (and you don't even have to use Not 2 Shabby goodies.)

Without further ado, here's my card...

This card was so simple to make. I just did some stamping with the gnome image and then colored things up using alcohol markers. After, some fussy cutting. Then I chose a fun piece of patterned paper and added on the image. Lastly, some burlap twine, a touch of sparkling enamel dots, and a little sentiment. Easy peasy, right?!...

Well, that's all for me. I hope to see you at the challenge! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day!
