My first card is a Fall sympathy card I made using the new With Gratitude set from SU. I stamped the leaves randomly with Old Olive, More Mustard, and Ruby Red. Then I used my Aqua Painter to give them a light wash. I rounded the corners with the corner rounder punch. The Color Spritzer Tool was used with my Stampin' Write Markers to add the nice flecks of color to the background. The sentiment is from Close As a Memory, and the ribbon from the BasicGrey Mellow ribbons pack. This looked kind of plain, so I added a little sparkle to the Ruby Red leaf with my clear Spica pen, and dotted the sentiment corner with my Old Olive S&W marker.

RAK from Janeen
This is a beautiful anniversary card from Janeen. I love the Fall colors, and the craft ink on the Kraft paper. I love that image, and she colored it so nicely. The original design is from Carole Richardson, and I think Janeen did such a nice job with it. Thanks so much Janeen!
From Flourishes
This final card is one that was enclosed with my Flourishes winnings. It is so cute, and I love the simplicity. I have this set as well, and need to try stacking those cute little cupcakes like these are here. So adorable! Thanks again Sharon, Nancy, and Jan Marie! You all ROCK! ;)
Thanks for stopping by today! I have a lot of blurfing to catch up on, and a couple of Tags to do as well. I hope to get to it sometime later.
