I had so much fun using
THIS SKETCH from Create with Connie & Mary that I just had to use it again. I LOVE the diagnal aspect! Just like my last card, I used the Comfort Cafe DSP, but this time I used it for a casual card that could even be considered masculine I suppose. I cut this boot out in three different colors before I got it right- this one is River Rock stamped with Soft Suede ink.
My daughter needs some thank you notes for birthday presents she received this month so I set my sights on those. This one puts 2 challenges to test: The sketch from
Fab Friday (which I took some artistic liberties with) and the color challenge from
Color Me Beautiful (Calypso Coral, More Mustard, Raspberry Ripple, Always Artichoke, Vanilla). I just love how this turned out- the colors are fallish but wonderfully vibrant together, and the variety of textures are so FUN- just what I needed on this cold blustery day!
Edited to add: the Color Me Beautiful sketch is one from several weeks ago that I'd written down in my sketch journal. Oops!
Here's another Thank You note. This time I followed the sketch from
Paper Players, and the color challenge from
Color Q.
Quick shot of the inside.
Well, thanks for stopping by!

These are all three just wonderful! Love the boot...and that sketch! The embossing on the second card is so cool...and your PP card is awesome...I always forget about that little embosslit, and it looks so nice with that image! Thanks for playing along with us at the Paper Players!
