Paper Craft Crew Weekly Challenge #597

 Good Morning, Stampers!

(click photo to enlarge)

Welcome to the Paper Craft Crew Weekly Challenge!
It's so hard to believe we will be celebrating Thanksgiving next week!
This year has certainly flown by! We have so much to
be thankful for and the theme for this week is to celebrate
Thanksgiving and there is no better way than to 
show our gratitude for our family and friends!


I used the Winter Meadow designer papers along with the
Layering Leaves stamp set for this card. A little unexpected color
combination for Fall, but with the addition of the leaves, 
it was the perfect choice for me! The squares from the Stylish Shapes
dies made it easy to create a unique card opening, too!


SU!pplies:
Stamps:
Layering Leaves, Layers of Beauty
Ink: Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso, Shaded Spurce, Smoky Slate
Paper: Basic White, Pretty Peacock, Thoughtful Journey DSP, Winter Meadow DSP
Accessories: Stylish Shapes dies, Tinsel Gems

The ultrasmooth surface makes it an ideal paper for stamping, giving you clean, crisp images. Check out some fun ideas on how you can incorporate two-toned cardstock into your next project!

Paper Craft Crew WeeklyChallenge#596

 Good Morning, Stampers!

(click to enlarge)

Thank you for joining me for this week's Paper
Craft Crew weekly challenge! This week, it's all
abount Simple Stamping.
I think the hardest part about simple stamping is 
knowing when to stop! I always want to add one more
stamp or one more embellishment. It's hard to
control myself sometimes!


I combined both snowflake sets - Sparkling Snowflakes
and One of a Kind - for this card. They work so well together!
Just a few ink colors, a sentiment and, of course, 
a few bling! Simple stamping is a great time
saver - especailly around the holidays!

SU!pplies:
Stamps:
One of a Kind, Sparkling Snowflakes
Ink: Boho Blue, Misty Moonlight, Gray Granite
Paper: Basic White
Accessories: Basic Rhinestones
