Altenew Daisy Celebrate Card

                          


    Die- cut the bigger bloom from Craft-A-Flower: Sunflowers Layering Die Set using white Neenah cardstock that was inked with Sunshine Meadows and Grass Green and Evergreen inks. These were the colors I own and I used Chocolate and Expresso Bazzill cardstock for the others. The Orange cardstock was in my stash as well. The Mayan Gold Relief Shimmer paste was used through the Paper Echos stencil and left to dry and then added another 2 lines to make the card 5x7 inches to design it with the sentiment. I made 2 versions of the card using partial stenciling on one and full gold stenciling on the other to try different variations. I like both! Altenew Challenge

Echo Park Winter layout




 Using the Echo Park Winter Magic collection, I made this and other layouts. Hope you enjoy them. Also, the laser cut title, "Baby it's cold outside" is by Hey Kid company. The blue Navigo card is one I drained while using the Paris metro and added it to this layout. We went to this flea market two mornings in December on cold rainy days. Had a fun time looking. Purchased this sterling bracelet and Ametrine stone-which shows  Amethyst and Citrine.
