Elizabeth Craft Designs- Fancy Edge Fall Floral

 Hello crafting friends!

I should make more of these "Slimline" cards, I just love the way they look!  It is finally fall and all my different fall asters are coming alive with color!  I have burgundy, pink, yellow, orange, a variety...I really love the extra burst of color this time of year!


I chose a nice bluish color for the barrel today, I love it withy the rusty bands.
I decided to make a fancy edge with gold and the "pumpkin" border die.  I used the bottom of this border die to make a fun edge on the back/inside of the card as well.

Elizabeth Craft Designs-Special Fold Fall Card

 Hello Crafting Friends!

Here is a special fold that can really showcase paper, dies and stamps.
Using fall colors with metallic gold or copper makes everything pop!  Also, adding a thin solid mat to the decorative paper panels just makes a finished look.


On this card I used stamen as a floral element in the bouquet instead of just a flower center.

For directions on how to make this type of card: tutorial at SplitCoastStampers.

Impression Obsession Die Cut

 Hello friends!

Today it's all about paper dies on my post.  Today is Designer's Choice.

Just to let you know that everything has been on sale at 50% off at the on-line store so don't be surprised if you can no longer find some of these dies...every day it changes.  


I put 2 papers together then die cut the inside out die 2 times.  I die cut the same die 2 times from light blue then inserted into the space left behind on my decorative paper.
I used a mug die with whipped cream die, colored  then popped it up.
