Fall Cards with Mon Ami Gabby

Today I am sharing two cards that I created with the September Mon Ami Gabby Kit Club.   I created a bow with the cream ribbon in the Kit for my Fall Harvest Girl Card.

This card also features a beautiful Fall Floral Embellishment that was included in the Kit and I adhered the small Fall Trim Flower from Mon Ami Gabby to the bottom right hand corner of my card as a final touch.

For my second card I created my Nature Card featuring the "Nature" Ephemera included in the September Kit, which I added some glitter to for some extra sparkle.  I just love this beautiful Fall Ribbon with the pretty leaves.  I added the Pearl Embellishment to the Burlap Flower and added Platinum Stickles to the edges of the burlap.  I added glitter to the Wheat Embellishments and finished by adding the Fall Trip Flower at the base of the Wheat Embellishment.

Want2Scrap Dog Chipboard

Today I want to share with you a couple techniques to create beautiful dog chipboard embellishments for your projects.  I created this adorable dog scene using Want2Scrap's Dog Chipboard Embellishment, a Doghouse Chipboard Shape, and a Fence Chipboard Embellishment.

                            

To create the the Doghouse, using a pencil I traced around the different sections of the Doghouse on the design paper and scissor cut out the sections. I adhered the design paper sections to the chipboard with Dries Clear Adhesive.  To get an even more precise edge I then used a nail file along the edges of the Chipboard Doghouse.  I sponged Old Paper Distress Ink along the edges and inside the opening of the Doghouse to create depth and shading.  I then adhered the striped beige design paper to the back of the Chipboard Doghouse to cover the opening.

                                           
I heat embossed the Chipboard Dog and Chipboard Fence.  Before I started I covered each piece with Gesso.  For the Chipboard Fence I covered it with Clear Emboss It Ink and then added Weathered White Embossing Powder.  I tapped off the excess and heat set it.  To create the Chipboard Dog I covered it in Tree Branch Wendy Vecchi Archival Ink and added the coordinating Tree Branch Embossing Powder.  I tapped of the excess and heat set it.  Embossing chipboard creates a beautifully covered surface.

                                                         

This scene I created is now ready to be added to a scrapbook page!

Have a great day!

Shabby Chic Rose Birdhouse

Hello crafters!  Today I am sharing my Shabby Chic Rose Birdhouse I created featuring Heartfelt Creations Classic Rose Collection.

I found this birdhouse while I was on vacation out in the Black Hills of South Dakota this summer at a boutique and it was on sale. I immediately knew it would be perfect to decorate with roses created with this collection.

I used a hot glue gun to adhere the roses to the birdhouse.

I just love how this project turned out!
