 I'm all about this color block patterned paper...so I let the angles do all the work. ;)



 I added Glitterific to this snowflake die for a bit of glitz~

Autumn Sunrise Chistmas




I'm going to need a lot of Christmas cards, and this card panel looks like a wreath.


  I colored it Christmasy and added a Christmas die cut.







Brutus Monroe Autumn Sunrise Card Panel/Papers from Autumn Sunrise Inspiration Box, Hero Arts Stamp & Cuts Merry, Copics




THEN, I got FANCY.

Check out this second pic with a CARD GUARD on. ;)





Brutus Monroe Card Guard


Now at first I fiddled with it...thinking "oh no! I bought three packs of these and they don't fit".


But once I cut the length of it, I slid this card right in.


 Remove the sticker strip and fold it over

 (stick the flap back on itself).






This will ensure that glue residue I missed, won't stick to the envelope I've slipped it in.


Ask me how many times that's happened.

 I'll answer...


 "too many times". ;)

I'm inspired by the whimsical card stories of Daniel West.


Here's my story...


Tim Holtz Halloween Cutouts, Brutus Monroe So Emotional, Papertrey Ink Bubble Talk die


 a spider drops too close for comfort ~

(I literally had two spiders skirting my windshield while driving the other day. Even when I didn't see them I SAW them, you feel?).

I paired Brutus Monroe So Emotional with Tim Holtz Halloween Cutouts for the following challenges:
