Geranium Layout

The PT Posse had a scrap night at the Green Haven Retreat located behind Picture This at the end of October. The place is amazing. Its such a beautiful property and so relaxing. We had food and drinks and hot tub time as well as an entire day/night of creating. I was able to get several sample pages done for the store. The following is one of them.
Webster's Pages- Citrus Squeeze "Picnic Party #US 2057D"
Cuttlebug Polka Dots Folder
White, Papaya, Deep Blue, and Dark Graceful Geranium cardstock

Party Glasses

This is a nice and simple card. I used a Memory Box die called party glasses to cut a silhouette into the front of the card. The inside of the card is stamped with a Riley stamp that says "It doesn't matter if the glass is half empty or half full. There's clearly more room for wine." I finished the card off with a black bow tie on the front of the card.

Wine Cards

Here are two more cards that I made with the wine paper from out there scrapbooking. The first card has the Inkadinkadoo stamp I've previously used. The second uses a Studio G happy birthday stamp as well as Spellbinders Inverted Scalloped Circle die.

Glass of wine

Today was the Bus Trip at Picture This. They are so much fun but a lot of work and it gets a little crazy. It seemed like everyone had a ton of fun, everyone bought lots of goodies. But after a day like today its time to curl up on the couch to put my feet up and have a drink! This card matches the mood perfectly!!

Washi Tape Girl's Night

Okay, this was a fun card to make. I bought the wine paper (out there scrapbooking "bottle of wine) that's behind the film strip washi tape and am having the hardest time using it. It's such a busy pattern. The "the ladies are going out" stamp from Inkadinkadoo went well with the wine paper, that much I knew, but it was boring so I added strips of the washi tape on both sides of it. Then I kept adding it because I really liked the look of it; you can see through the filmstrip to the wine.  I think the card works well with the theme of Ladies Night.
Wine and a movie anyone? ;)

Birch Trio

This is one of my favorite dies of the season from Memory Box: Birch Trio. I love it cut out of Papers Best product #bb01 ( realistic birch tree paper) and paired with Pacific Blue cardstock. I added a little black twine from The Twinery and it finished the look. A vertical stamp on tge right would look nice if you wanted a more complete look but I was unable to find any in my stash or at the store that suited the card to my liking.

Cookie Cutter Tree Card

I used a diecut from a multipack of shapes from American Crafts "Holibery" for the tree, Christmas themed Washi Tape, twine, and Echo Park Paper "Vintage Santa".
