Gratitude fall card

Gratitude fall card by Janice

The story

I really enjoyed making this Thanksgiving card, which I’m entering in the Pinkfresh Studio October fall leaves challenge.

Product/technique notes

I stenciled and die cut the leaves with Pinkfresh Studio’s “Fall Foliage” set and Distress Oxide inks, stamped and fussy cut the pinecone from Jen Hadfield’s “Warm & Cozy” stamp set, stamped and ink blended the woodgrain background from Honey Bee Stamps and die cut it with a Pinkfresh Studio mini slimline die, and stamped and embossed the sentiment with a Making Memories set from 2009!

Bohemian paisley card by Janice

The story

I’m entering this card in MFT color challenge 172.

Product/technique notes

I stamped the paisley images, colored them with Tombow markers, and fussy cut them. For the background I created layers of color and pattern by 1) ink smooshing with the colors in Distress Oxide inks, 2) stamping an additional image from the paisley collection in gray, and 3) adding the aqua polka dots through a stencil.

Have a wonderful day card

The story

I’m entering this card in MFT color challenge 169 and will send it to a friend.

Product/technique notes

I blended salvaged patina Distress Oxide Ink with a stencil to create the cloud background. The subtle water image is a layer of peacock feathers Distress Oxide Ink topped with a Hero Arts waves stamp using more salvaged patina ink. The stamped images are from My Favorite Things, and I colored them with Copic markers.

Sending you owl my love card

Sending owl my love card by Janice Daquila-Pardo

The story

I created this card for my hubby for our 23rd anniversary. I chose the owl theme because this summer we had the joy of being visited repeatedly by a family of six owls in our back yard. They were gorgeous and just so fun to watch and photograph.

Product/technique notes

I blended Distress Inks in five colors (aged mahogany, spiced marmalade, fossilized amber, peeled paint, and speckled egg) on the background and then laid down a second layer of each ink through the Hero Arts rain dance pattern stencil to create the look of leaves. The owls are from My Favorite Things, and I stamped and colored them with Copic markers. I’m entering this in the clean & simple challenge at A Blog Named Hero.
