More August Paper Pumpkin Alternatives, first.
More August Paper Pumpkin I have two More August Paper Pumpkin Alternatives for you. One today and the second on Saturday. This one turned out soo amazing that I gave it away already. This uses an envelope as apart of the packaging. How can you say enough about how BEAUTIFUL the are in person. Please note that the Mossy Meadow Braided ribbon is retired. However, I was shocked to still see it on the clearance rack. 10 yards for $2.80. Shocking!! But True There are only a couple other things added to this. I am sure you see the sentiment piece. That was an additional cardstock scrap piece. Here is…

Smiling Sunday with Zinnias from the Garden.
Smiling Sunday with Zinnias I figured on a Monday, Sunday funnies is good. However Smiling Sunday with Zinnias and Sunflowers would be even better. Why?? Because of the Smiles of course!! All of these pretties are from my gardens here on the Homestead. It sure has been a LONG time since I could make an arrangement with flowers from my garden. YES, I am excited!! There are soo many that I had a difficult time picking. Those Lemon Yellow Sunflowers were a last minute addition. What do you think?? When I got done… I called my neighbor and went to her house and put one together for her also. I…

First of the Fun Fold Cards, this is an easy one!
First of the Fun Fold Cards Here is the First of the Fun Fold Cards. I want to say that this one is one of the EASY ones too! My favorite part is that you use a regular cardbase to start. If you have done any fun (fancy) folds you know that most take a TON of paper. You might need to start with 12 x 12 paper. UGGHH, right?? Not this one. What does that mean?? Well you still get two cards from one piece of 8 1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock. Which is a win when you do not have a lot of colors or cardstock in…

Forgotten Culver Card – Sunflowers
Forgotten Culver Card I have no idea how I forgot to share this one. Check the first card, Mum here and the second, Tasteful Layers here. However, the forgotten Culver card, has just a little coloring for the Sunflower centers with the Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker. Here is the more neutral card.

Thanks a bunch Sunflower Celebration.
Thanks a bunch Sunflower I am a huge fan of the outline of this HUGE sunflower. For our Inky Whisper Sisters team meeting in August the theme was Melon Mambo. I did add Granny Apple Green and a little Flirty Flamingo. How do you think the thanks a bunch sunflower turned out? This is a very summery look. I did try to be strategic where I put the dimensionals. Along with the stem of the little sprig. In this photo you can really see the embossing folder too. That is Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. hummm, I wonder what this would look like in more purples and cream. What colors…

Flowers for Every Season, just a flower??
This is more then just a flower… Would you agree?? I have a friend that loves sunflowers. So I wanted to be sure to send this amazing card to her. Cutting out the petal outline two times and layering them … AMAZING!! I bet you remember the cards we did for Coffee and Cards on Saturday. Well the Jar punch is part of this same suite. Flowers for Every Season (154132), is what I like to call a “super” suite, because it has two stamp set bundles, ribbon, DSP, embellishments, Shaker Domes, Memory and More card pack and cards. But that is not all! It also includes four of the…
