I should be mailing cards, but it's more fun to make them--haha! My friend,
Betty, is on the TTTC DT &
Challenge 092 is her first board.
I really love all the options, but in the end I went with the top, horizontal row. I die cut SSS Birch Tree Window, brushed on Flitter Glu & covered with prisma glitter. That is the best glue! Almost no shedding after it dries.
The background was made with Hero Arts Reactive Ombre Winter Sky ink pad. I spritzed with shimmer mist--so pretty in person.
The Penny Black word die was cut several times from vellum & I white embossed the Winnie & Walter sentiment. The panels were die cut with Lil' Inker Stitched Rectangles & the top one was mounted with fun foam. I'm also entering
SSS Wednesday &
WAW.
Edited to add: Also entering
DCD.
Next is my card for
ITP PTI Warm Wishes &
ModSquad. I white embossed PTI Take 3 Winter images & a sentiment from PTI Snowflake Flurries on a scrap of purple cardstock which is a darker more elegant shade in real life.
I tied on white crochet thread, rounded the corners & added 3 white sequins. Love using beautiful images for a simple, flat card. This could be a friendship or Christmas card.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you as soon as I can.
Lovely work

The shimmer mist gave that card such a beautiful winter look. Pretty purple snowflakes and great design.
ReplyDeletelove love your card for the TTT challenge - background colors for the birch trees are gorgeous - and the purple card is so classy!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are wonderful, I love the sparkle on the first one and the design and colors on the second one.
ReplyDeleteI saw this purple beauty at ITP, and came over for a closer look. Both of your cards are gorgeous. Love that window and glitter on the first card, and it is such fun to see a real oldie but goodie from PTI given new and beautiful life on your second card.
ReplyDeleteI love that birch card, that is one of my favorite dies. YOur lovely purple trio card is sure to bring a smile too.
ReplyDeleteTwo great card, I particularly like the trees, bet the sparkle is amazing. Wonderful CCC card this month too xx
ReplyDeleteLovely cards Greta. I can relate to the "more fun to make than mail". But if we didn't mail them I think we would be buried under a pile of cards!
ReplyDeleteI love them both. Beautiful cards.

Oh, love the shimmery shine and lovely color on your first card, so pretty! Wonderful die cut sentiment, too! Second card is just as beautiful! Great design, color, and snowflakes!
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty cards, both of them and the bling on the first one is extra special Greta x.
ReplyDeleteTwo beauties, Greta - just love all the sparkle on card one and the snowflake inchies on card two!!
ReplyDeleteLove the frostiness of your first beautiful card and the sweetness of the last one!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards Greta. They really are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteYour card is amazing, great design!!
ReplyDeleteI've posted all my overseas cards but still have some to post for the UK. Not my favourite job writing cards! These are 2 beauties again... I have the die you used in the first one and think I only used it once! Have a good day my friend
ReplyDeleteI felt sure that I'd commented on this post, but its not here, so I must be mistaken. I absolutely love the sparkly scene on the first card and the font used for the Peace title is perfect. The second card is so pretty in lavender and white. TFS
ReplyDeleteI like everything about this card. So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas, Arlene, DT for Die Cut Divas.
