In reds and browns

I love the way my crafting turns out so far tonight. Not only it's pretty early still and I'm hoping not to call it a day yet, but also I really like the outcome. I've got two stylish cards that I think will become keepers. I might not want to part with them... :)

First is this card, with a big fat bow - just like Chupa likes it.

Supplies: cardstock: American Crafts, recycled kraf; paper: October Afternoon; stamps: Penny Black, Stampin' Up! (Baroque Motifs); ink: Versa Color (Orange); Versafine (Onyx Black); grosgrain ribbon: Sullivans; Cuttlebug embossing folder (Swiss Dots); sewing machine

I took the MOJO164 sketch, and made the sun out of the circular panel. The colours come from Curtain Call 55.

There's also this card... the rose looks really nice IRL, but unfortunately the camera wasn't able to catch the lights & shades properly. The lighter parts are much more evident and make the flower quite life-like.

Supplies: cardstock: Stampin' Up! (Soft Suede), recycled kraft; stamps: Papertrey Ink (Year Of Flowers: Roses, Mega Mixed Messages), Stampin' Up! (Baroque Motifs); ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Pumice Stone); Memento (Tuxedo Black); Copic markers; grosgrain ribbon; sewing machine

The sketch is SC306, and the colours - CTD118. I would show you how the sketch looks like, but SCS seems to be having a glitch at the moment and doesn't show me the enlarged thumbnails.
Also entering the card into WMC30 - Birthday Bash :)

I'll see you around!! xxx
