49 and Market Vintage Countryside Double Layout


 

The Bee Lazer cut is from Paper Wizard, and was given if you spent enough at the convention last year. I didn't put them together and liked them separate. The Papers are from 49 and Market called Vintage Countryside Sunset Bloom. The remaining items are from my stash and to go along with a challenge on another blog. These pics are from our recent cardmaking day. Here's their info:

Poppy Stamps Neighborhood Home Pop Up Hello card!






 
This is a fabulous die set from Poppy Stamps called Neighborhood Pop Up Card and it stands like an easel card! Love making this Orange, black and white card for Poppy Stamps' Monthly challenge: Get Your Spook on.  This front panel was die cut and embossed as well as the roof of the house. All of the parts come with the die set and it comes out so cute.

Additional details: I added a "shaker box" to the bottom panel to put candy corn pieces to match up with the sentiment die image. That "hello" die is also Poppy stamps and is no longer available and called Luscious Hello. I cut the front panel of it, 3 times out of Orange, Tangerine, and white. The background of it was cut in Burnt Orange. Using the white, I added the Tangerine layer with the top part cut off partially as seen. The orange layer, was cut further down, and added making the "candy corn" hello. Added to the Burnt Orange bg to place on the card to make the "easel" part so as to make it stand up. The large moon is also theirs and a swirl circle die I left large to enhance the fall moon of fall nights! Love how it came out and hope you do too. Other challenges include:

Prima Marketing Candy Lane card



Jumped into using my stash and starting my Christmas cards for 2024!! We are very busy here in Central Florida getting ready for our second hurricane in a row. We had a ton of yard pick up with the last one 2 weeks ago and now another is hitting Florida in 3 days. Thought I would sit down and play with the World Card Making Day with leftover fussy cut pieces from 2 years ago. Enjoy!!

Kaiser Craft Sweet Nothing Double layout of Passau, Germany


 




I used Love Letters Paper from the Sweet Nothings collection By Kaiser Craft as well as, All Yours. I had an extra sheet with the angel so chose that to fussy cut it all our and added the angel with pop dots. I used the rest of that Love Letters to cut it down to strips of 2 x 8 inches and after inking all edges with Walnut Distress ink I arranged them as seen to go behind the photos. I then began using matching flowers from my collection from all different companies including Prima Marketing, Blue Fern and Petaloo. I didn't like how thick some were so I removed the stamins and added pearls to some and Nuvo Drops in Pearl to others. Some leaves, and fancy brads were also added. To add a title, I chose Kaiser Craft English Rose rub-ons to the first photo. I did add a "d" to make it Treasured moments. Hope you enjoy it! I just love these papers! 
  The photos are of us listening to the organ concert at the St. Stephen's Cathedral in Passau, Germany. I took the pics and the oval pic is of city guide outside the church who recommended coming back to hear it. The organist doesn't want himself to be seen during the concert so this is of him when he was practicing earlier in the day. Beautiful music and melody.

Graphic 45 Home Sweet Home "Sweet" Layout




 Using the A Cherry On Top weekly Sketch #394, I put this together with Graphic 45 Home Sweet Home collection. The 2 sheets I chose were: Farmer's Market (which was perfect for the layout I was doing!!) for the blue, as well as, the yellow pp; the "stamps" and "seed packets" out of Country Life Paper. I also used a Tag from the Tags and Pockets. Used the large chipboard quilted circle from the Decorative Chipboard set. Used the back of the quilted pp for the blue for the center of it, and added small red letters from and Echo Park Christmas letters. I added Walnut ink around all of the edges. 

The Layout is of my sister and I who live 4 hours away from each other and our meet up at Webster Farmer's and Flea market. We do this during the year to shop and eat together and just catch up. We both bought the tons of the vegetables as pictured. The vegetable row at the market can be seen in the background of our selfie pic. Combined with ACOT's Sketch #394, and Graphic 45 Fall challenge #G45fall. This is what fall looks like in Florida!! Enjoy!
