Just Rite 44/ LPS 94 & CPS 90 & Bugaboo

Just Rite Stamps has a color challenge of navy, rust, and gold.  I used the Nested Thanks set as well as the Autumn Set for stamps.  I actually used colored pencils and gamisol which was fun since I haven't done that in awhile.  I embossed the sentiment using Stamp Craft gold embossing powder.  Since this card has quite a few die cuts I will enter it in the Little Paper Shop Challenge also.  I was wanting to use one of their images and make a separate card, but I don't think I'm going to get to it.  Most of my cards use a Spellbinder I find, I just LOVE those things!

For my next card I used the Card Pattern Sketch for my layout.  The Christmas horse and jingle bells are Susan Louise designs which as beautiful and easy to work with.  I have taken classes from the artist Penny who is talented and a wonderful person.  This also came with a stocking of toys with a dog and a raggedy ann doll.  I needed to use the horse due to the positioning of the card.  Since these are clear I use Zip Dry glue which holds well and dries fast.  They come in a variety of sets, along with minis.  See below for details.

See my card on August 22, 2010 for more samples.

This week Bugaboo has a sketch challenge.  I used the Be Nice to Me Nurse digital Image.  I used Diamond Glaze on the glove and glasses which is hard to show up on the picture.  Being a nurse I tried to make the squares look like paperwork.  I have a friend who had arthroscopic surgery on Monday so I was trying to make the card more masculine for him.
