LSC #16 Merci

Happy Friday!!! Its LSC time again..... I am actually embracing my inner American visiting my In-Laws in Ohio for Thanksgiving...so please bear with me for not visiting your blogs...no WIFI?????? I may actually die!!!

I wanted to do something non seasonal and use some new colours- I love this combo sooo much.

I kept my card super simple- I wanted the paper and sentiment to be the focus. I inked the chipboard frame and heart so they would match.

Go check my Loonie sisters out to see what they have come up with.....

2S4U - Wassailing

Ok, here's my take on Laura's Sketch #12.


I just picked up my Basic Grey Wassail papers on the weekend and need to do something with them. As I was fanning though, I saw these papers and the big die cut and had a light bulb moment. This card will be for my Son's grandma (pseudo ex mother in law)- its is totally her- the big flowers kind of a country feel........sans chickens or cows LOL!! Anyhow she is A GREAT lady and she loves my cards.

The papers are all BG, the sentiment is papertrey and how awesome are those buckles from Spellbinders??? really awesome, ribbon is American Crafts

a little sassafrass.....

OH I love Sassafrass....so whimsical dont you think?


I picked up a few sheets while I was in Quebec City..for some reason this stuff is impossible to come by around me anyway. I just dissected the paper and put it back together again. I cant remember what the background paper is though????
