This is my place to share with family and friends. You might find handmade cards, digital scrapbook pages, photos or a little chatter because those are the things I love. My blog is a work in progress, so be patient with me. Most of the time I think I will be talking to myself, but hey, I'm used to that!

Two cards today...

The first one is one I made for my Stampin Up samples. A favorite image of mine and I love it in this color combo. The set is called A Light Unto My Feet.



I also had fun making a hybrid card with Kim Hill's Spellbound kit available at CGE. A hybrid card is one made with paper and printed out digital papers or elements. Hybrid just has so many possibilities!
I made the pumpkin by cutting ovals of pieces of the digital kit's papers. I printed the colored digital items on Canon matte photo paper. I used Stampin Up's heavy black cs for the base of the card. The front panel and the pumpkin are elevated with foam dots. I thought it would be fun to have the cat's tail sticking out of the card. A white gel pen was used for the white dots. Thanks for looking!

The first card is lovely! The colours look amazing together. The second card is just adorable! The patterned pieces really make the card. Great work! :)

Cathy, thanks for visiting my blog. I'm onthe search for the paper you mentioned!
The lighthouse card is absolutely amazing. I've always liked this image. The colors and your layout are fantastic.
Love the pumpkin card too. Looks like patchwork on the pumpkin and the cat coming out of the card is a wonderful effect. tfs
