Hello, Shirley posting today! We had a wonderful Inspiration picture for this
challenge. I love the plaid blankets. I have a feeling we will be
needing a lot of blankets this winter.
I saw my first wooly worm for
the season yesterday. It was black. The "old timers" use to say that
meant a bad winter. I hope they are wrong, but the Farmers Almanac
says it will be a bad winter also. I think I will be hibernating and
making cards all winter long.
For my card today, I started out cutting the card base out of gold card
stock. I cut a piece of brown card stock and a piece of plaid designer
paper. I adhered those to the card base.
I stamped an image from the JustRite Botanical Medallions and Banners set
on vanilla card stock. I really use this set a lot, as you have
probably noticed, with this sunflower image being my favorite. I colored
the image with Copic markers. I used the Spellbinders Floral Ovals die
to cut the image out.
I stamped the banner and cut it out which is
also from the JustRite Botanical Medallions and Banners. I used Joy Foam Pads to pop up the image, and attached it to my card.
I added three Snowflake Pearls and a May Arts ribbon in Brown/Antique Gold bow. I used the Bow Easy to tie the ribbon. The ribbon is 1 1/2 inches wide, but I doubled it to make it look
better on my card. I found this ribbon very easy to work with.
This completes my card for today. Thank you for visiting and taking a look at it!

Shirley, I love the warm and cozy colors in your plaid background - like a blanket on a cold morning, but LOOK! you have brought sunflowers in all their glory, and mounted on such a gorgeous floral oval die - love that bow too - this is a stellar card!!
Gorgeous and elegant, Shirley! What a pretty banner too! Your coloring is perfect!
