The Card Concept #62 - Thanksgiving

 This week, at The Card Concept, the theme is 'Thanksgiving'. Have a look at the gorgeous Autumn colours in the inspiration image........................so inspiring!!

When you read this post I will be winging my way to Fiji for a holiday. Looking forward to going back to the place I was born. It's so beautiful.

For this card I was inspired to go Shabby again. The Autumn leaves are dies from Lawn Fawn. As I don't have a stamp, I inked the die with black Versafine before I die cut the leaves and it worked just fine. I then water coloured the leaves with Distress inks.

The Card Concept Challenge 61 - Pretty in Pink

The Card Concept Challenge for this week is Pretty in Pink! I spotted this gorgeous image on the DT blog nearly two months ago and have been waiting for this challenge to roll around. Take a look!!

This pink flower was the first item I knew I would use when I saw the image. Totally impractical as a card to post, but I know this will be my mum's birthday card and she lives behind me!! No posting necessary. I will make a wee box for it using my We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board. See Jennifer Mcguire's How to video here.
