Biweekly Challenge 2 Autumn Flowers - projects by Lynda

Hello....Lynda here to share with you a few projects I created using the fabulous supplies from the Cuttin' and Stampin' store for this challenge.  

I've used some of the following products on my projects: 


Fancy Pants Burlap & Bouquets collection. 


Buttons
These products and so much more are available at


For my first two cards I took some of the solid colored pattern paper and trimmed it to it fit onto my card base leaving a small border.  I then used some of the trimmed pieces to create a strip to go across the card front.  I then added the diecut floral accent to the front of each card.

in addition to the floral diecut, I added the feather diecut to this card:


for my next card I did the same process, but used a piece of the pattern paper:


For my final card I covered my entire card base with the pattern paper.  I then added a strip of a coordinating piece of pattern paper to the card front on the top.  I then added the burlap bow that I topped with the button (tied off with twine).  I tucked the diecut tag up and behind the bow and the card was coplete.



I hope you'll join in the fun and link up your Autumn flowers theme project to the blog post here.

Happy crafting....Lynda

Fun Friday - 14-24: Birthdays

Hi everyone, Lynda here to share with you another project featuring these wonderful products from Jillibean Soup.  It just so happens that my youngest is turning ten in a few short weeks, so I decided that I would use these great number stamps to make her card.  The problem is that there isn't a 10 in the image...but there are a few number combinations on the image that do add up to ten....so I first stamped the image onto the wonderful blue pattern paper and cut out the numbers "1" and "9".  Then drew and cut out a plus sign.  I then stamped the image onto a piece of cream cardstock and added the cutout numbers to the image.  I then mounted the image onto the fun pattern paper.  I then decided that the image still needed a little something, so I stamped the Celebrate Today around the edge of my card to create a border.  I then inked all my edges and assembled my card front.


I then stamped the same numbers image onto the blue pattern paper and fussy cut the number "1" again.  I then cut just the round part of the number "6" and used a black pen to turn it into the "0" that I needed for my number ten!  I then drew and cut out the equal sign.  I then added them all to the inside of my card to complete the math equation.



I think she'll like her card...and I know I really think it turned out cute.

So...pull out your supplies and create something for our birthday challenge and link it up for a chance to win!!

Friday fun-day!!

Hi everyone, Lynda here to share with you a little project I made using the wonderful Lawn Fawn You float my boat stamp set and some of the paper from the Authentique Anchored paper line.

These products and much more can be found in the





To create my card I first stamped the sentiment onto some plain white cardstock and then diecut the sentiment out.  I then diecut the white tag.  Both were then inked along the edges.  I then stamped the life preserver three times in red, black, and blue ink.  I then fussy cut them out and inked along the edges of them as well.  I then covered my card base with this wonderful stripped pattern paper.  I then went about assembling the tag.  I added the sentiment strip and decided it needed a little something else, so I went back to the same three ink colors and added the tiny hearts above the flag.  I then added each of the life preservers to the card using foam tape.  I then decided to doodle the stitch lines along the edge.

(this would make a cute Project Life card if you just left the white tag alone and did not pop up the life preservers!)

This is a great card for any occasion that you need to say thank you, but especially for Father's Day that is coming up....and speaking of Father's Day....there is still time to create a project following that theme and link it up on the challenge this week.
