Jaded Blossom - Hey Boo!

Hello friends, I'm here with another Jaded Blossom card share. This month is flying by way too quickly! There's so much that I want to share with you and still so much more I want to make.

Although I don't make Halloween cards normally, I couldn't pass up an idea I had in my head. Supplies used:

Girl Gnome
Gnome Dies: Thanksgiving Add-On's
Gnome Dies: Tea Add-On's
Gnome Dies: Spooky Add-On's

The paper I used is for the background is a digital print that I purchased from Etsy. The "hey" was made by using a special font. It's so funny to me that I only discovered Jaded Blossom about a year ago and I have a lot of super cute things from them, everytime I get an idea, I scrunch my nose and say to myself, eeehhhh, no, you don't have that. This is what I love about Jaded Blossom, they have reminded me how much I loved paper dolls as a little girl and I can mix & match.

I cut the girl gnome and used the strap and buckle from the Thanksgiving set to make the band on her witch's brim. I cut out the tea kettle from the add on set, the frog and "boo" from the Spooky add on set.

I hope I inspired you to mix and match your dies to create something witch-fully fun and toadally adorable!

Jaded Blossom - Snow Owl fun fold card

Hello! I'm here with a card style that is currently trending. This is a really easy card to make and it's pretty impressive. But what really makes a card? The focal point, right? I just got the Gnome Friends Owl die and had to play. Before I got it, my mother and I were definitely oohhing and ahhing over it. She said when I got it she wants to see a Christmas card. Well, I'm not quite ready for Christmas, but I did want to create something wintry.

So, here it is. My snow owl card and isn't she the most adorable owl you've ever seen! Oh my gosh, I love her so much!

I die cut in out of white card stock and snipped off the head feathers (whatever they're called - I'm sure there's a name). Then added some gray feathers and these owls have yellow eyes so I made sure to color those in. Viola! Perched her on a snowy branch with some beautiful winter themed patterned paper.

I hope you love this card as much as I do!

Jaded Blossom - October Guest Designer!

Hi! I am so excited to be October Guest Designer for Jaded Blossom. I got picked way back in February - you can imagine how I've been wishing my life away for October to hurry and get here! It's finally here and I have a super cute card to share!

For my first post, I hadn't been able to play with the mini-Gnomes since I bought them when they released so this was the perfect opportunity.

I pulled out some old patterned paper that was in my stash from Jelly Bean and began to create my scene. My idea was to create an anniversary card, or just a card to tell someone how much they mean. Picture this: a beautiful night sky, with a full moon in a park that's strung lights. A band playing in the gazebo. And you and your loved one sitting on a blanket, enjoying a little picnic.

I used Mini Girl Gnomes, Mini Boy Gnomes and Gnome Kisses stamp set.
