For the rest of my life...

Hi again and thanks so much for stopping over today.  I have another Quietfire Design card today to share and this one i also made with one of the new Wedding lines from Ruby Rock-it.  It's a really pretty line of paper called New York and it's filled with lots of pale shades of aqua, black and white and went perfect with the stamp i chose to use for today.

To start my card I found a gate card base in my stash that was white so that is how i began.  I cut rectangles of printed paper to fit both sides of the gates and then made a smaller square to fit inside and match the die that i was using for the sentiment.  I cut 2 layers of the fancy die in white and put 3D foam dots in-between them to make the lace stand out more.  Then before i glued it to the base i wrapped a band of white ribbon around the card and secured it in the back.  The flowers and pearls i added last as my finishing touches.  The sentiment really speaks for itself i think..... it's beautiful.

You can find the stamp in the Quietfire Design store called "For the Rest of my Life".  I love Suzannes' stamps and dies... the sentiments are always so heartfelt and come out so beautiful when you create things with them.  And it's calligraphy and i love that part too!!

I also used Ruby Rock-its new "New York" Collection and you will have to stop over

and see all the other gorgeous things they have new for all those weddings you have coming up.

Thanks again for stopping over and i have lots more to share so i hope to see you soon :)

Autumn is my favorite season...

It's been long time since i have done a post here on my blog.  With my mom passing away and my daughter getting married to the love of her life 2 weeks ago my life was pretty busy to say the least.  But i had time the other day and was working on using some of the new Quietfire Design stamps that i just got so i thought i would start sharing a few with you all.

I wanted just something simple for my card.  I love to walk out hiking among all the trees in fall and see all the beautiful colors they are and how they crunch under your steps.  So i just cut a few leaves from metals i had in my stash and then put them on a simple white back round matted in colors of fall.  For the stamp i used Momento ink in Expresso truffle and inked around the tan card stock in Gingerbread to make it stand out.  

The stamp is really pretty and they are others in the times of each season so i am getting on top of those and creating something fun with each of them to share with you all soon.  

If you would love to buy the stamp be sure and stop over to the Quietfire Design store and

see what's new and "Autumn is the second spring" #5645. 

Thanks so much for stopping over and be sure and check back again soon.
