I have some spare time today so I'm here to post cards for two very different challenges.
First up a Christmas card for
AAA Cards:
Using an old hexagon punch and a bunch of scraps of glitter cs, I created a border around the simple heat embossed sentiment "noel" that is also punched out as a hexagon.
Next up, is a card for a good friend. It's one of my favourite friendship sentiments. It's for the
Less is More challenge.
I sprinkled red brushos over a heart stencil and spritzed with water.
I stamped and heat embossed my sentiment over them in black, bordered with red, and popped up on fun foam.
I'll be back tomorrow with cards for some other challenges. It's too hot to work in the garden today so a good chance to do indoor crafty things!!

ReplyDeleteYou make me want to stamp, my friend. TFS your creative cards. Hugs.
you are right about it being too hot to be outside. It's nice to see you were able to play along with some challenges :)
ReplyDeleteGreat cards, your friendship sentiment is perfect for those very special friends.
I agree it’s too hot to play outside. 😉 Two wonderful cards, Susan! Your glittery geometric Christmas card is so fun. Your second card for your friend is so sweet and she’s going to love it. Thanks for joining us at Less is More. xx
ReplyDeleteYep, I've been inside for the past several days as well. Thank goodness for air con. Having fun creating in the studio as well. We should get together and craft! Two fun and colourful cards Susan. xx
ReplyDeleteLove the contrast of your two cards Susan! The sparkly geometric card is full of festive cheer, but that sentiment on the second is just amazing! I can see why it is one of your favourites. Great work with the brushos too. Thanks so much for sharing that one with us at Less is More xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful shimmer on your Christmas card Bonnie - and a lovely sentiment with the hearts on your friendship card!

ReplyDeleteLove those sparkly hexagons, Susan! What a great Christmas card! And I still love that friendship sentiment! The stenciled hearts are perfect scattered about the sentiment!
