JOY - September Rudolph Days

 

Hi, Friends......

Today's card is for the September Rudolph Days over at Maureen's blog.  I pulled out a previously made decoupaged background I made from used Christmas tissue gift wrap.  I like the crinkly, crumpled texture with the satiny smooth finish!  

Hey, guess what.....I think I have used the very last of those weird foam snowflakes! (This one has 8 points, but others had 7 points.  So very strange!!)  If there are ANY still hiding in my various stash boxes, there can't be very many.  This is the last one I know about.  Finally....YAY!  I teamed it up with a pretty die-cut one.

 

Supplies used include:
Winnie & Walter - In a Word: Joy Cutaway die
Sweet Dixie - 4 Layering Snowflakes die set
Weird foam snowflake from Dollar Store
Winnie & Walter - Essentials:  Audrey Cutaways die set
Scraps:  used tissue gift wrap, solid and glitter cardstock
Ribbon from stash

You still have another day to join us over at the Rudolph Days Challenge. Hope to see you there.

Hi, Friends.....

Quick post to get this pretty butterfly card in under the wire at Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge.  I've been busy with Cat Hop things and also fighting a nasty cold....so I put off making this card.  Arrrgh...that's why I am posting it in the middle of the night!!  lol....

Mrs. A gave us several color options (wheat, wisteria, watermelon, and wild blue yonder), a theme (wood), and a window card fancy fold option.  Guess what????  I managed to find some fabulous Graphic 45 paper in my stash that had all 4 colors!  I used a big wooden butterfly and made the window card design.  

 I got the card nearly finished and realized the big butterfly was actually chipboard and not wood at all.  Oh, NO!!!  So I found some pretty flower/butterfly embellishments that Mrs. A had sent me once in a lovely prize.  I am fairly sure they ARE wooden.  I stained them to match the color of the chippie and added them, too.  Whew!!  

The Happy Birthday ribbon is some I made with my label maker.  I received this label maker as part a big stash-pruning prize a long time ago.  It came with a bunch of different tapes....and a number of them are printable ribbon.  This is the first time I have been brave enough to try custom printing a ribbon embellishment.  Fun!!

Supplies used include:
Graphic 45 Secret Garden collection
Southern Ridge Trading Co - big chipboard butterfly
Wycinanka - little wooden butterfly and flower embellishment
Distress Ink
Custom printed ribbon

Hope you like my card.  I love how it turned out.....even though it is the wrong season.  I will save it for spring.  :)  Thank you for stopping by!!
