Sweet Gatherings

Good morning :)  this card was made for my brother Richard and his wife Marie.  They were married 37 years ago, yesterday!  Happy Anniversary!   Below I made a few Easter treats to give to some loved ones.  Inside the treat box I also made a tag with the bunny on it, and added some chocolates.  I wish I would have remember to take a picture of the tags. I used Papertrey products. Have a wonderful day! Nancy

Hello, this card I am entering in the Papertrey's Make it Monday challenge #152.  The challenge is layering dye and pigment inks.  Here I used color box frost white pigment ink for the stripes, layered on top is aqua mist, berry sorbet and smokey shadow dye inks.  The stamp sets used are Fancy Flourishes, Cupid's Arrow, Background Super Stripes and Happy For You. Have a great day! Nancy

Hello everyone!  Over on Serendipity's blog is a challenge and the challenge is to add sheet music or news print to your project.  I just received my owl dies in the mail and couldn't wait to use them.  For the solid owl I used my news print pattern paper and white cardstock for the owl that is on top.  Just look at all that detail in that owl, it is just gorgeous!  For the eyes I used pink sequins and orange enamel dots.  I also used pop up dots to raise the owl off the paper. Have a good night! Nancy

Papertrey's 7th year Anniversary!!!  The challenge is to make a birthday card and to take a picture of you holding the birthday card. I used all of Papertrey's products except the sequins.  CONGRATULATIONS PAPERTREY ON 7 WONDERFUL YEARS!!!  I found Papertrey the end of the year in 2009 and have loved them ever since!!  Can't wait to see your picture:) Have a great weekend! Nancy

    Festive Friday's are having there first challenge of the New Year.  The above photo is are inspiration piece.  What inspired me was of course the red and the barn boards and the wreath hanging above the door.  It is hard to see on my card that the wreath is all embossed with Zing, colors are rouge, rose, leaf and white.  The wreath comes from the stamp set Birds and Blooms.  The sign is also embossed and the stamp set and die is Bountiful Banners and the sentiment is from Peaceful Pinecones. Happy Day! Nancy
