The Card Concept: Winter Cocoa or Winter Snow

 

The Card Concept has a new challenge, starting today, and you get to choose

your inspiration again!

This inspiration photo and color swatches seemed to me a real challenge, so

I wanted to try to tackle the colors.

A while back I ordered the Stitch Petal Frame die from Spellbinders, and it 

seemed the perfect choice for incorporating the select colors of the challenge.

We've had a lot of rain here in my Central Valley, good excuse to stay in and

embroider this stitch card.

Head on over to The Card Concept blog to see both challenge photos and

play along! 

Thanks for the visit!

The Card Concept #187 {Winter Cocoa} or {Winter Snow}

Strawberry Jam

How y'all doing? Well and safe, I hope!

I recently received a driveby gift of homemade Strawberry Jam from a friend, and thought

I'd repay with some homemade tags she could add to the next batch. Our valley has 

fresh, ripe delicious strawberries, April through August, and then again October 

through Christmas! 

I used several stamp and die sets from different companies, Concord & 9th, 

PTI, MFT and Elizabeth Crafts.

I've saved dozens of stamp containers from PTI over the years, and love them

for repurposing. 

The super big berry tag from C9 says it all!

I loved how PapertreyInk included so many sweet details in their Strawberry

Patch set.

The MFT tag has a couple of 'awnings' you can add to the top. 

Well that's all for now, I seem to be craving a bagel with cream cheese and 

strawberry jam... homemade of course. And then it's off to do a driveby...

Have a wonderful week!
