Mornin' y'all! I didn't get quite as much craft room time as I wanted to yesterday (I need to work on my time management skills...I get distracted) but I did make a card for today!
Check out this week's fun sketch from Freshly Made Sketches:
The inspo pic just looked so COZY and it 100% drove what I chose for stamp sets today. I used Boho Blue, Very Vanilla, and Crumb Cake for my colors, with a bit of Pecan Pie for the coffee (even though I don't drink coffee, I'm a tea girl). Some In Color dots from last year's catalog and my card was finished. Like I said, I don't drink coffee, but a lot of my friends do so I'm sure this will get sent out soon!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Latte Love, Drizzling Droplets
Ink: Crumb Cake, Boho Blue, Pecan Pie, Stampin' Blends in Boho Blue & Pecan Pie
Paper: Crumb Cake, Thick Very Vanilla
Accessories: In Color Dots, Dimensionals
Speaking of cozy, while the hubs and I were out antiquing on Tuesday, I found this:
It's a little quilt about 3 feet square and I bought it to go on my dining table or island counter to decorate for Thanksgiving (I like to host Thanksgiving with as many people as I can because more people = more PIES to make!) and it was only $6. I recently bought three cross stitch patterns that are quilt inspired and done in fall colors, so yesterday I went out and bought the thread for all three of them:
Most of the reds are on the bottom I think. Anyway, at some point, I will have those cross stitched pieces done and framed to go on the little quilt. Most likely not for this Thanksgiving since I haven't started yet, but maybe next year's. Gotta love starting new projects!
The perfect design to send to a coffee-loving friend! Love the depth you added by sponging around the edges of the three panels. Thanks for joining us for this week's Color Throwdown!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so lovely and a great use of the throwdown colors! That quilted piece was quite a steal and I'm anxious to see your completed cross stitch pieces! Thanks for playing along with us at CTD!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cozy, fun take on the sketch! Thanks for playing along with us at FMS this week.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card! I love the coffee theme! The neutral colours are perfect! That quilt is just beautiful! I wish I possessed the quilting gene!! You'll have to post your cross-stitch projects once they're completed! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
