Thanksgiving Invitation

Hi Everyone and welcome Ivett here again to share a new project with you for November! 

I have put together a Thanksgiving Card this month with some fabulous colors. I used my favorite Sizzex mini pumpkin and leaf #4 die. I have had this die for ever and it’s gotten lots of love over the years. The funny thing about it is that I can always think of new ways to use them! 

I will be hosting Thanksgiving at my home this year and thought it would be nice to make some personal invitations for a few family and friends this year!

The colors I used for this project were: Tiger Lily Red Orange, Marigold Yellow Orange, Cowabunga Copper, Ponderosa Pines Olive, and Steampunk Sepia.

I found the perfect brown ribbon that says autumn on it to divided the card up and give it some character.

 

I embossed the metal piece and the back of the card with a Spellbinders Die and inked all the edges with Distress ink for depth. The inside of the card I just lined with white 110 lbs. paper and will fill it out later. I also used 140 lbs. water color paper for the pumpkins and outside liner to the card.

Bellow I have a tutorial on how I put this card together.
 As always I hope to have inspired you to create something wonderful! 

Autumn Gathering!

 Hi Everyone Ivett here with you sharing an autumn card. Fall is a super exciting time for me because it kicks off all of the holiday decorating which I love and enjoy so much!

This card truly evokes childhood memories for me. 

For this card I used Kraft card stock to cut out all of my leaves and branches dies from Tim Holtz Alterations Dies. McGill embossing tools and a Prima Distress tool. I also used black 110 lbs. cardstock for the card base and 1 6X6 sheet of Prima Sunrise Sunset paper pad. I then inked all of the edges to the branches, leaves and back layer of my paper. 

 

 Ok-so on to my fabulous Lindy’s Stamp Gang goodness!!! I used Ponderosa Pines Olive Starburst Spray, Cocoa Bean Copper Starburst Spray, Sandra Dee Sepia Flat Fabio, & Red Hot Poker Orange Starburst Spray to color, distress and use a gradient coloration technique on my leaves. Then I sprinkled them with Twilight Bronze Slate & Midnight Gold embossing powders to make them glisten and gleam beyond compare!

As always thank you for stopping by and I hope to have inspired you!    

            Bellow you will find a video tutorial on how I put it together.

Traveling Friend for {IAR}

Hi Everyone I vet here again with another I Am Roses project to share with you.

This month’s project is a little card I put together for a friend that’s going away for six months. I wanted to make something small enough to hold a couple of gift cards yet big enough to deck it out with my fabulous Roses form IAR! 

As you can see I have put together two cluster of these fabulous frilly roses and the added the word Friends in the middle. I uses a Prima 6x6 paper pad, recollections wood word art and my Spellbinders die. 

You can find my beautiful roses here. As always I wish to inspire you and want to thank you for stopping by!

House Warming Moments

Hi there Blogosphere friends, It’s Ivett here again with some Lindy’s inspiration!

 

I recently got an invitation from a good friend of mine to visit her at her new home and of course I to make her a card to go with her housewarming gift.

I created this card using a few Mixed Media techniques and my new summer favorite Lindy’s set Under the Boardwalk. I used some 7 Dot Studios paper with some We R Memory Keepers “Dreamy” Double-sided Journaling cards. I also incorporated some beautiful Prima flowers, Prima Junkyard Findings, a Prima Bust and some cute gears and chipboard gears.

My friend a big girly girl as am I so this card was a treat to make and I can’t wait to see the expression on her face when she gets her present!

I used Lindy's Stamp Gang Under the Boardwalk Flat spray set 

and coordination Embossing Powders.

Bellow I have a video with a small tutorial for you.

 As always I hope to inspire you!

4th of July Invitation

Hi Everyone Ivett here again! I just got my 4th of July decorations out the other day and I’ve been busy working on plans for our 4th of July party. We usually host a BBQ at our home so when it come to decorating our home it's quite fun! 

I thought it would be nice to create some unique place tag holders, gift tags for the kid's treats, and these beautiful cards for some of our closets friends as invites! 

I took some white card stock and used it as my card base topped it off with some white corrugated cardboard that I distressed with some Distress Ink in Faded Jeans. Then I colored an image of this wonderful little girl – doesn’t she look mischievous? 

Unfortunately I didn’t save the info on her so I can’t give credit back. Then I added my image some banners and of course my beautiful Carnations from I Am Roses. I added some distress ink in Festive Berries, and Faded Jeans to them. I also used a miniature rose in her hair and added Faded Berries distress ink to the white rose as well.

I Am Roses flowers used were:

Mini Rose R2 – 15

Carnations CA1

Copic Markers I used were:

R29, R27, R11, R00

B93, B95, B97, B00
