Good Day, ladies. this card is Cased, but i love it.  It is embossed in white, and I sponged Soft suade over it.   The background i folded the corners in and put it through the crimper.  Unfold and mount the fruit over the center. Wrap string around and fasten with an antique brad.  Can be a masculine card.  Try it...  Carol Smith

Because I care

Hi, ladies.  This card is absolutely gorgeous in person.  It just "Happened" to put itself together like this. I had no previous idea, just bits and pieces.  The berries have the crystal glue on them, and the words are embossed in white.  I punched the edge of the card, and put an embossed background beside it.  Tell me what you think.  Thanks. Carol Smith

THis one, I like because the rose is embossed in white, and sponged over top, and the rose stands out through it.  Not sure how I like this in the picture. It is prettier in person.  Carol Smith

simply soft

These cards are copied from Stamping with Klass-  "I hope you don't mind, Bonnie".  I made these for my church to have on hand when needed for corporate signing.  I think they are very beautiful.  Thanks for the idea, and I hope you enjoy them.  Carol Smith

Sunny Morning Chat Challenge

Ladies, come join us over at our chat challenge at http://www.butternutsagedesigns.blogspot.com/ and see what we are making!   This week was brayering, which I'm VERY green at, but I did it.  I just brayered some orange, yellow, and olive on a whole sheet of cardstock to look like a plaid, and then cut it into quarters.  I then embossed the hello doily into the corner in white, and put a  quarter of a doily die on top with ribbon.  Then I stamped the "so sweet" stamp and embossed that with the emboss oval frame.  Color.  And I also embossed across the bottom with the hearts strip emboss folder.  WOW! I had NO idea what would happen, but I like it.  Most of my cards happen that way.  (divine intervention)  Hope you enjoy it.

So Sweet

Hey ladies, I just made this one this evening.  I had some pieces laying on  my work space, and this is what happened to them.  Turned out pretty cute.  I just embossed the cardstock, and rubbed ink over it, and put my image on a circle, and put glitter on the outside edge.  A double bow, and I'm done.  Do you like it?  Thanks for looking.  Carol Smith
