French Foliage $14.95 (C)

The leaves have started falling at my house. They were the inspiration for this card using the "French Foliage" stamp set from the SU! 2012-2013 catalog. It's a great set for making your own background paper!

The ribbon on this card is SU!'s 7/8" Cotton Ribbon - a stampable fine cotton texture. I stamped the ribbon with the same color of ink used in the card - what a way to complement the images and colors used to make the card.

Happy Fall Y'all

This cool weather makes me want to stay in, drink cocoa and curl up on the coach with a comfy blanket. It is my favorite time of the year! So now I'm inspired to make fall cards. I love using purple in combination with traditional fall colors.....

Four Seasons

Rich Razzleberry works nicely with Pumpkin Pie and Crumb Cake. I added just a touch of Baja Breeze also.

Circle Circus Christmas

My Circle Circus Christmas Card

Found this idea on Pinterest - love the Circle Circus stamp set used as a Christmas card.

I used the Sassy Salutations stamp set for the sentiment (which is my favorite sentiment set) because I think its font style better fits the art style of Circle Circus. Colors are Lucky Limeade and Cherry Cobbler. DS paper - Festival of Prints. And of course - bling!!
