It has been a very long time since I've made a card and posted it here on my blog but I thought I would share two cards that I made recently for a friend at work. She recently shared with me her obsession with collecting Funko Pop! figurines (I can see why...they are SO cute) and her LOVE of Harry Potter Funko Pop!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;">This got my crafty senses working and and I wondered if I could find a Funko Pop! digital stamp or image so I could make my friend a Funko Pop!

Hello stampin' friends! I spent the weekend #stayinghome and getting crafty! I made these sweet cards with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://mftstamps.com/blogs/news/birdie-brown-digital-stamps">MFT Birdie Brown Free Digital Download</a></b></span> that they have available on the <span style="font-size: large;"><b>MFT blog</b></span>. Theses <a href="https://mftstamps.com/collections/stamps/birdie-brown">Birdie Brown stamp sets</a> and sentiments are SOOO sweet!!! I used the fabulous colour combo over at the <a href="https://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/2020/04/color-throwdown-587.html">Color Throwdown # 587</a> and used the <a href="https://mftstamps.com/blogs/news/wsc483">MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge # 483</a>. </div>

I recently got a new printer and I wasn't sure if the ink would be compatible with my Copic markers so when I downloaded the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>free Birdie Brown digital images</i></b></span> it was a chance to test it out. I had my fingers crossed!<br />
<br />
I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't have any problems with the printer ink smudging or bleeding with my new <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>HP Officejet 3830 printer</i></b></span>. I printed this image on <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cover stock</i></b></span> and coloured this sweet nurse from the the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Birdie Brown Call the Shots digital download</i></b></span> and cut out a sentiment too. I stamped the tiny open heart from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Reverse Confetti Unicorn Wishes</i></b></span> on the nurses' chart and coloured in the image with my Copics.<br />

For this card I used the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Rounded Banner STAX Die-namics</i></b></span> for the arched panel that the sketch calls for and I created a window. I also used the two different nesting sizes in the STAX set to make a frame from Kraft Heavyweight Card stock. I stamped a background with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Make Your Mark Background Stamp</i></b></span> with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink</i></b></span> on <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Smooth White Cardstock</i></b></span>. I embellished with some twine and sparkly YNS gumdrops. </div>

I made a second card with the same layout with the<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i> Birdie Brown Super Hero in Scrubs Digital Download</i></b></span>.

Hello Stampin' friends!!! It has been a very long time since I have made a card and posted here on my blog but I have been staying home and self-isolating/social distancing, like everyone one else, during the COVID19 pandemic. We finally got around to giving my craftroom a refresh with a coat of paint. We had this mini-reno in the works for a while but hadn't got around to it. So, we finally did it! Chris painted and hung up the pegboard that my Dad made for me and my Mum painted it. I love it!!! Everyone did a great job! Scroll down to see some craftroom pics. </div>

So, I made this card with this adorable <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Somebunny Sweet Pure Innocence</i></b></span> stamp. I think she is retired now but this is my first time inking her up. I made this card with the pretty color pallet for the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://mftstamps.com/blogs/news/cc138">MFT Color Challenge 138</a></b></span>. I am also entering this card in the <b><a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/?p=19428"><span style="font-size: large;">Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge</span></a></b>. They have a beautiful spring mood board for inspiration. </div>

My room is very small but it works for me and I love having a dedicated space and everything close by and I love being able to close the door on a crafty mess!<br />

The baskets are from Michaels and I just punched a hole with my Crop-A-Dile and hung them on the pegboard hooks. I plan on hanging stamps and dies that I want to use on a specific project or that are NEW so that I remember what I have and use them.<br />

My Dad made these shelves a long time ago but they weren't painted...so when Chris took them down to paint the walls and painted them white. They look great white!<br />

Hello stampin' friends! It has been a long time since I made a card but I was inspired to get crafty and make this card for <a href="https://beadonor.ca/campaign/donna-mcallister?fbclid=IwAR20eiXSl6rFjET6kbUTL40nSRkcE96AxkPICYmbXImd1SLyqB_1YL-shYU"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>"A show of Hearts Campaign"</i></b></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>- Be a Donor Campaign</i></b></span>. </a>The challenge is to use your creativity with photos to show support for, Donna McAllister, she is from the Durham region and she needs a heart transplant. This campaign has been organized by my friend, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/cheryl.bailey.9250595">Cheryl Bailey</a>, to encourage everyone to do their part and spread awareness of organ/heart donation. </center>

Hello Stampin' friends! I am back with another card that I made with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snowflake-magic">NEW Snowflake Magic stamp set</a></i></b></span> and coordinating <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/layered-snowflake-confetti-cuts">Snowflake Magic Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span> from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/">NEW Reverse Confetti</a></i></b></span> release.<br />
<br />
I picked up some <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Tim-Holtz-8-X-10-WHITE-ALCOHOL-INK-YUPO-PAPER-tac63346-tac63346?currency=USD">YUPO paper</a></i></b> </span>a couple of months ago with every intention of pulling out the many <b><i><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/search?currency=USD&q=alchol+inks">Ranger Alcohol Inks</a></span></i></b> that I have kickin' around in my craftroom. I really wanted to make some beautiful marbled backgrounds that I have been seeing others make. So, I played around with the Alcohol inks and YUPO paper using various techniques...it is very fun, relaxing and addictive and definitely helped to got the crafty mojo flowing again.<br />
<br />
This background was actually made by "smooshing" the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Tim-Holtz-8-X-10-WHITE-ALCOHOL-INK-YUPO-PAPER-tac63346-tac63346?currency=USD">YUPO paper</a></i></b></span> in the residual alcohol ink that was left on my Ranger non-stick craft sheet. I added some extra little drops of Alcohol Blending Fluid to the left over <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Mountain Rose, Pool</i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Denim Alchol ink</i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Silver Mixative</i></b></span> that was on the craft sheet to loosen it up and get some more movement of the ink. I loved how this soft marbled background turned out. It was perfect for a <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snowflake-magic">Snowflake Magic</a></i></b></span> card. <br />

Merry Christmas stampin' friends! I made some time to make a card with some new <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Reverse Confetti Stamps</b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Confetti Cuts</b></span>. I am SO glad that I did! I realized how much I miss getting crafty and really enjoyed the creative process. I hope to get back at it on a more regular basis in 2019. So for my card today I used the super cute NEW <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snow-bunnies">Snow BunniesStamp set,</a> </i></b></span>coordinating <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snow-bunnies-confetti-cuts">Snow Bunnies Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span> and the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snowballs-cover-panel">Snow Balls Cover Panel Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span>. </center>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/collections/cardstock-8-5x11">For my card I used Reverse Confetti Card Stock in Cloud White, Aqua, Lime Green </a> and <a href="https://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/mft-cardstock">MFT Kraft and Sno Cone Cardstock</a></i></b></span></center>

So, I'm a slow poke when I am making a card so it really speeds up my creative process when I already have inked background paper on hand...just love when a card comes together (relatively) quickly. I found this inked background paper in my stash that I had made for another project and didn't use. The Bristol card stock was ink blended with <i><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Distress Oxide Twisted Citron and Peacock Feathers Inks</b></span></i>. I cut it with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snowballs-cover-panel">NEW Reverse Confetti Snowballs Cover Panel </a></i></b></span>and layered it over a panel of <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Reverse Confetti Cloud White Card stock</b></span>.<br />
<br />
I coloured the skating snow bunnies with my copics, cut them out with the coordinating <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Snow Bunnies Confetti Cuts</i></b></span> and created a little winter scene with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Tree Lines Die-namics </i></b></span>that I cut from a scrap of the same Distress Inked card stock. I also cut the stitched scalloped border from the <b><i><span style="font-size: large;">MFT Blueprints 23</span></i></b>. The larger cloud is from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Snow Bunnies Stamp set </i></b></span>and the smaller matching cloud is from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>RC/Simon Says Stamp Forest Friends Stamp set</i></b></span>.<br />

I framed the scene with the wonky stitched frame from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/all-framed-up-confetti-cuts">All Framed Up Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span>. I stamped a sentiment from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/snow-bunnies">Snow Bunnies Stamp set</a> </i></b></span>on a stitched fishtail banner. I added some <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>American Crafts twine</i></b></span> and <a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=17_88&product_id=1004"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Your Next Stamps Gumdrops</i></b></span></a>.<br />

Hello stampin' friends! I made some time this weekend to make a card. I was inspired by the fabulous color combo that they have over at the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/2018/10/color-throwdown-514.html">Color Throwdown # 514</a></b></span> and I also used the great sketch that they have at <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com/2018/10/freshly-made-sketches-358-sketch-by.html">Freshly Made Sketches #358</a></b></span>. I stocked my Reverse Confetti Stash and used the adorable <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/products/nuts-about-you">RC Nuts About You Stamp set</a></i></b></span> for this friendship themed card, perfect for the <b><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/blogs/posts/new-stock-your-stash-challenge-1">RC October Stock Your Stash Challenge</a></span></b>. </div>

Hello stampin' friends! just quickly stopping by to share another card I made for my friend, Glenda. She needed another wedding card. Again, I went for a more vintage/romantic look with the fall colour palette for the wedding. It was a great opportunity to use some of my paper flowers that I have been hoarding for years. I also used the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://www.mftstamps.com/ljd-together-forever">MFT Stamp set LJD Together Forever</a></i></b></span> for the sentiments. I am entering this card in the <a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-stamp-stamptember/"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Stamp On It</b></span>.</a></center>

Hello stampin' friends! I'm quickly poppin' by to share a card that I made today! It has been quite a while since I've made a card so I was happy to get crafty again!

Hello stampin' friends! Whoo hoo...I finally made a card!!! It has been a couple of months since I have had any desire to make a card or get inky. I just didn't have any crafty mojo but that didn't seem to stop me from shopping at Simon Says Stamp, lol. Well, I am happy to enter my card for the <a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-anything-goes-49/"><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold;">Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes </span>featuring</a><span style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-anything-goes-49/"> MFT Stamps</a>. </span><br />
<br />
My friend asked me if I could make a card for a wedding that she will be attending. It was just the nudge I needed to get off the couch, head down to my craft studio and get inky.<br />
<br />

<br />
The colour combo for the wedding is Forest Green and Ivory so I used <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/mft-cardstock/heavyweight-card-stock-whip-cream">MFT Whip Cream</a></i></b></span> and <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/mft-cardstock/heavyweight-card-stock-kraft"><b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Kraft Heavy Weight Cardstock</span></i></b> </a>and <a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/collections/paper-products/products/avocado-cardstock-8-5-x-11"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Reverse Confetti Avocado Cardstock</i></b></span> </a></div>

I did some 'smooshing" on water colour paper with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Tim-Holtz-Distress-Ink-Pad-MOWED-LAWN-Ranger-Summer-TIM35008-50008?currency=USD">Distress Ink in Mowed Lawn</a></i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><i><b><a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Tim-Holtz-Distress-Oxide-Ink-Pad-FOREST-MOSS-Ranger-tdo55976-tdo55976?currency=USD">Forest Moss</a></b></i></span> and used the "smooshed" paper for the background paper and the<b><i><span style="font-size: large;"> <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/die-namics-linked-chain-oval-frames">Linked Chain Oval Die-namics</a></span></i></b>. I cut several <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/die-namics-linked-chain-oval-frames"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Linked Chain Oval Die-namics</i></b></span> </a>and adhered them together to give the linked chain oval die more stability and layered it over the Whip Cream Oval panel cut with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/stax/die-namics-oval-stax-set-one">Oval STAX Die-namics</a></i></b></span> and stamped the sentiment from the <i style="font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/clear-stamps/alphabets-sentiments/ljd-together-forever">LJD Together Forever Sentiment Stamp set </a></i>with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/VersaFine-ONYX-BLACK-Ink-Pad-Pigment-Tsukineko-VF-82-23812?currency=USD">VersaFine Onyx Black Ink</a>. </i></b></span><br />

I finished the inside of the card with another stamped sentiment from the <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/clear-stamps/alphabets-sentiments/ljd-together-forever"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>LJD Together Forever Sentiment Stamp set</i></b></span> </a>and layered the oval panel with another die <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/die-namics-linked-chain-oval-frames">Linked Chain Oval Die-namics</a></i></b></span>.

When I saw that the DT Dare was "Layer It Up" I was psyched! I LOVE lots of layers and I thought I could not only "Layer it up" but I could create a little scene too with the super cute new <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1844">Fire Up the Fun Stamp set</a></i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1845">Fire Up the Fun Dies</a></i></b></span>. I mixed and matched various patterned papers from my stash and used the YNS<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i> Spring/Summer Scene Die</i></b></span> to create the roads added some grass with the YNS <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Spring Grass Die</i></b></span> and used the YNS <a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=181&search=trio"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tree Trio Die Set</i></b></span>. </a></center>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So for my February Blog Hop card I used the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1850">NEW EGG-Citing Stamp set</a></i></b></span> and coordinating <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1851">EGG-Citing Die set</a></i></b></span>. I am SO ready for Spring, so it was a welcome break from the snow and cold to play with this SWEET set! I just have to say how much I LOVE the EGG-Citing Stamp set and the fun sentiments too. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For my card I started by doing a little inking on a panel of <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tim Holtz Distress Woodgrain Cardstock </i></b></span>with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Carved Pumpkin Distress Ink</i></b></span>. The stitched horizontal panel is inked too but with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Distress Oxide Inks Worn Lipstick</i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Fossilized Amber</i></b></span>. I cut the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=95&search=open+">YNS Open Scalloped Circle Die Set </a></i></b></span>from paper that I inked with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Distress Oxide Inks in Twisted Citron</i></b></span>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://s466.photobucket.com/user/aratg/media/Egg-CitingBlogHopC_edited-RS3_zpshgprahgi.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Egg-CitingBlogHopC_edited-RS3_zpshgprahgi.jpg" border="0" src="https://i466.photobucket.com/albums/rr26/aratg/Egg-CitingBlogHopC_edited-RS3_zpshgprahgi.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
I stamped the egg carton from paper that was inked with the Distress Oxide Inks with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=17_94&product_id=1453">Your Next Stamp Premium Dye Ink in Black Olive</a></i></b></span>. I then cut the various little chicks and eggs, coloured them with my Copic markers, added a little touch of sparkle with my Zig Wink of Stella Clear pen and then adhered them to the egg carton. I popped the egg carton up on the Open Scalloped Circle panel and embellished with green hemp cord and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/category&path=17_88">Pink Sparkly Gumdrops</a></i></b></span>. I separated the sentiment and stamped the "YOU ARE EGG-Stra" (love this... reminds me of my daughter, Hannah, saying "Mom, you are SO extra"...which is true, lol) for the front of the card....<br />

I have been having a lot of fun with my <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Distress Oxide inks </i></b></span>and used them to make a blended background for this card with a pretty spring colour pallet. I sprinkled on some water to the inked background to get those fun water splotches. I just adore the <i style="font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1846">NEW Your Next Stamp Music Chicks Stamp set</a>. </i>I coloured the various chicks up with my Copics, cut them out with the coordinating <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1847">Music Chicks Dies</a></i></b></span> and popped them up on the Window panel. I stamped this fun sentiment from the Music Chicks Stamp set with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=17_94&product_id=1453">Your Next Stamp Premium Dye Ink in Black Olive</a></i></b></span>. </center>

The grass is cut with the retired YNS Spring Grass die but you can get the same look with the <a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1474&search=grass+die"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Stitched Grass Die</i></b></span></a>.

<span style="text-align: left;">When I saw the inspirational photo with the fun colour combo that they have for the </span><span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;"><b><a href="http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.ca/">CTD478</a></b></span><span style="text-align: left;"> this week I pulled out my </span><span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/smitten-mittens/">Reverse Confetti Smitten Mittens Stamp set</a></i></b></span><span style="text-align: left;">.

Hello stampin' friends! I can't believe this is the my first post of 2018...one of my new year's resolutions was to do a little more stamping, card-making and blogging, than I did last year. I'm going to have to step it up! Well, I'm glad I carved out a little crafty time today to play with this <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>NEW Pure Innocence Stamp set Blowing Kisses</i></b></span>. I love this little girl and really enjoyed making a PI card again...missed her.<br />

I made my card with the fun sketch, <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://www.cardchallenges.com/2018/01/wednesday-sketch-challenge-sketch-368.html">MFTWSC368</a></b></span>, that they have on MFT Challenge blog. I flipped the sketch to better accommodate by image. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also used the pretty color combo from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.ca/2018/01/color-throwdown-476.html">Color Throwdown 476 </a></b></span>and was inspired by the inspirational photo to make a "snowy" card.</div>

I colored up the sweet <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>NEW Pure Innocence girl, <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/clear-stamps/pure-innocence/pure-innocence-blowing-kisses">Blowing Kisses</a>,</i></b></span> with my Copics and paper pieced her dress with patterned paper. I thought instead of blowing kisses she could be blowing some snowflakes....perfect for my snowflake themed card. I used some chunky glass glitter adhered to the palms of her hands. I don't have the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/stitched-pierced/die-namics-stitched-mod-rectangle-stax">MFT Stitched Mod Rectangle STAX</a></i></b></span> so I swapped it out for the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/stitched-pierced/die-namics-stitched-rounded-rectangle-stax">MFT Stitched Rounded Rectangle STAX Die-namics</a></i></b></span>. I made a frame with the set and layered it over the pretty snowflake patterned paper from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://simplestories.com/collection/winter-wonderland">Simple Stories Winter Wonderland 6X6 paper pad</a></i></b></span>. </center>

I stamped a sentiment from the retired MFT Pure Innocence stamp set, Thanks Snow Much, from my stash and heat embossed it with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>AC Zing White Embossing powder</i></b></span> and layered the sentiment strip over the circle element cut with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/stitched-pierced/die-namics-stitched-circle-stax">Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics</a></i></b></span> and the <i style="font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/stax/die-namics-circle-stax-set-1">Circle STAX Die-namics</a>. </i>Surprisingly, I kept this card rather clean and simple...I wasn't trying, it just kind of happened but I did add a few <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=17_88&product_id=1189">YNS white sparkly Gumdrops</a></i></b></span>. </center>

<center style="text-align: left;">

<center style="text-align: left;">
I finished off the inside of my card too...I stamped a shadow image with <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/premium-dye-inks/premium-dye-ink-pad-chocolate-brown"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Chocolate Brown Premium Dye Ink</i></b></span> </a>and I added another white embossed sentiment from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Pure Innocence Stamp set Warm Wishes</i></b></span>.</center>

When I saw the inspirational photo I knew I wanted to use this <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>BasicGrey Juniper Berry patterned paper</i></b></span> that I had in my stash. I cut the main circle panel with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/lacy-scallop-circles-confetti-cuts/">RC Lacey Scallop Circles Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span> and stamped the sentiment from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/sentimental-christmas/">Sentimental RC Christmas Stamp Set</a></i></b></span>. </div>

I've been on Pinterest swooning over, chuckling at and pinning letterboards. I've totally fallen in love with letterboards, so, I wanted to make my own little "letterboard" for my card. I wasn't able to get my hands on any corrugated felt so I decided to paint some <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Kraft corrugated cardstock</i></b></span> with grey craft paint. I let it dry and then cut it out with my <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Square STAX Die-namics</i></b></span> and cut out the little letters from <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Whip Cream Heavyweight Cardstock</i></b></span> with the <b><span style="font-size: large;"><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/die-namics/alphabets-words/die-namics-lld-little-letters">MFT LLD Little Letters Die-namics</a></i></span></b>. </center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I framed my "letterboard" with the NEW <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/scalloped-squares-confetti-cuts/">Scallop Square Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span> and stamped the toque and nordic snowflakes from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/happy-winter-confetti-cuts/">Happy Winter Stamp set</a></i></b></span> on <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/heavyweight-card-stock-smooth-white">Smooth White Heavyweight Cardstock</a></i></b></span> with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/premium-dye-ink-pad-steel-blue">MFT Steel Blue</a></i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/premium-dye-ink-pad-timber-green">Timber Green Premium Dye Ink</a></i></b></span>.

<center>
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I finished off the inside of my card too....I added another Scallop Square frame and used the large tag from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/tag-duo-confetti-cuts/">Tag Duo Confetti Cuts</a></i></b></span>. I stamped a sentiment from <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="https://reverseconfetti.com/shop/sentimental-christmas/">Sentimental Christmas Stamp set</a>.</i></b></span> </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">

Hello stampin' friends! It is time for another FUN challenge over at <a href="http://curtaincallchallenge.blogspot.ca/"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge for Nov. 15 - Acorns</b></span>.</a> We have another fabulous inspirational photo for you to use if you choose or anything goes! When I saw this photo I knew this <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=20&product_id=1738">Your Next Stamp Autumn Animals Stamp set</a></i></b></span> would be perfect and I'm playing along with the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/blog/category/challenge/">Your Next Stamp Sketch Challenge # 77</a></b></span> too. </div>

My colour Combo was inspired by the photo... I used <a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/mft-cardstock"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Heavyweight Card Stock</i></b></span> in </a><span style="font-size: large;"><i><b><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/mft-cardstock">Kraft, Hot Fudge, Steel Blue, Grout Grey, Brick Red</a> </b></i></span>and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://www.mftstamps.com/supplies/mft-cardstock">Olive Green </a></i></b></span></div>

I used the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/blog/category/challenge/">YNS Sketch # 77</a></b></span> but swapped out the circle element with the largest <a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=25_80&product_id=1629"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Cool </i></b></span><span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Tag Die Set</i></b></span></a> from Your Next Stamp. </div>

I wanted to colour up the SWEET squirrel for my card. I just adore the wee acorn he's holding with a smiley face! Too cute! I stamped the images with <span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=17_94&product_id=1453"><b style="font-size: x-large; font-style: italic;">Your Next Stamp Black Olive Premium Dye Ink </b></a>and coloured them with my Copics. The YNS Black Olive ink is </span>specially formulated to be compatible with Copic Markers. I then cut out the images with the coordinating <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1739&search=Autumn+Animals+">Autumn Animals Die Set</a> </i></b></span>and created a little scene on the tag with the<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b> YNS Spring/Summer Create a Scene Die Set</b></i></span>. </center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
The sweet sentiment is from the <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1738&search=Autumn+Animals+">Autumn Animals Stamp set</a></i></b></span>, stamped on <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Grout Grey Heavyweight Card Stock</i></b></span> with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>MFT Paver Red Premium Dye</i></b></span>. I embellished with <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>American Crafts Brown Hemp Cord</i></b></span> and <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i><a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=17_88&product_id=1003">Your Next Stamp Gumdrops</a></i></b></span>. </center>

I finished the inside of the card too and stamped a shadow image of the sweet Autumn Animals squirrel in <span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Olive Green Premium Dye Ink</i></b></span> and another sentiment from the<span style="font-size: medium;"><i style="font-size: x-large; font-weight: bold;"> Autumn Animals set </i>K</span>raft cut with the small <a href="http://yournextstamp.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=25_80&product_id=1629"><b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Cool</span></i></b><span style="font-size: medium;"><b><i><span style="font-size: large;"> Tag Die Set</span></i></b></span></a>. </center>
