Simply Sentiments Wee Memories Blog Hop

Its time for another Wee Memories Challenge Blog Hop! You might have found your way here from Cathy's blog. If you get lost at any time, please go back to Jenny's Wee Memories blog. 

The challenge this week is 'Simply Sentiments' sponsored by I Love It All. I Love It All is giving away a $20 prize package, so be sure to link your card up at the Wee Memories blog before next Saturday! 

Now head on over to Giovana's blog to see her blog hop card! 

P.S.- I'll tell you about my project...Its not a card! Crazy huh?! I decided to make a little Halloween home decor. Eventually (hopefully before Halloween) I'll find a cute little frame to stick it in. I used some paper scraps from Cosmo Cricket, Papertrey Ink, and Crate Paper. The large subway sentiment stamp is from Purple Onions *seriously love those!!* The mason jar and pumpkins are from Papertrey Ink. I apologize for my awful pictures lately..I've been taking them at night *Gasp!* ;o)

Are you feeling ready for fall? I am! 

Pumpkins and apples and Jars...oh my!

 See? I promissed Autumn cards.

Stamps:PTI friendship jar and fall fillers (colored in with copics), 

Purple Onion thanksgiving noteblock stamp.

Patterned Paper: K&Company, Cardstock: DCWV

Embellies: PTI vintage buttons and cream twine, and lace is from my stash.

Okay i'm not typing out another huge product description-lol... 

stamps are the same as the last two ;)

This time I added some Melissa Frances mica flakes

Oh, and that Purple Onion Noteblock stamp- love it! It totally reminds me of vintage subway signs. Yes?

PTI vintage baskets stamp, Purple Onion noteblock stamp, PTI vintage cream and rustic cream CS

PTI vintage button and cream twine, Doily and ribbon from stash, patterned paper is from Joann's. Copic markers.

This last card is not my favorite... something about it bugs me. But oh well. I spent way too long coloring that silly basket to just let it sit unloved. 

Its pretty obvious that I used a lot of the same supplies on all these cards. Thats how I roll. I like to stamp several of the same images, leisurely color them in, and set them aside. I cut everything up and keep them in my "element buckets" (these are sorted by theme) when i'm ready to create a card I just pick an element from the bucket and match it up with papers and go from there. Occasionally I create a card from start to finish in one go... but mostly I just like to piece things together from pre-made, prepared, pre-stamped stuff (was that redundant?). Its easier on my mojo. (yes, I said mojo)

I hope that made sense. That was a lot of words. 

Tomorrow I have some birthday cards to share.

Thanks for stopping by <3
