Thanks - PC Sept/Oct Publication


I realize that I haven't shared with you any of my cards from the current issue of Paper Crafts.  I was fortunate enough to have several projects picked up, but this is my favorite.



It was for one of the fall color theme combinations.

The images are from Stampendous' Summer Leaves set with a CTMH sentiment from Say it in Style.  The leaves were stamped using Jenni Bowlin paint dabbers in first and second generation, and then I used a craft knife to cut the tips of some of the leaves for dimension and to slide the ribbon in.


I end up submitting lots of cards to calls, and it's always interesting to see what does and doesn't get picked up.  This was my favorite from this submission round so I was thrilled that is was selected.

Hoping you are having a wonderful weekend!
