May the Bounty of the Season

Well, I am guilty of getting behind in posting my cards.  Mostly because my computer runs so very slow, anything that involves pictures means the molasses in the cupboard has found it's way into my motherboard :(
Since I don't think we will be able to go to our families who live out of state for Thanksgiving this year, I am working on making cards to send.  There are several cards with folds that I haven't had the opportunity to try, so I decided to roll the two together.  My first card is one of those cards where the top and bottom rails fold one way leaving the middle to be part of the regular card, but it bends and folds too.  Not sure of the name of this one, but you'll recognize it:

See, I knew you would recognize it.  I enjoyed playing with this card, lots of little cuts and fittings, but that leaves for lots of opportunities to do something different. The papers are from PaperTrey Ink.  The stamps are old Hero Arts (and I mean old!), but they were exactly what this card needed, so they got to get inky instead of something new :), these sentiments were embossed with VersaMark and StampinUp Clear EP.

I have used SB labels 4 and CheeryLynn dies fern frond and Sweet William (Calyx for fluffy flower).  Edges were inked with Distress Inks, Tea Die and Shabby Shutters.  Pin and rhinestones are from PizzazAplenty, small roses are from Wild Orchids.  Ribbon so pretty and sparkly came from LOC, it was a piece that they wrapped my shipment in.  You can see the ribbon better in this picture in the top corners:

The leaf in this picture is one I cut out by hand, folded in half and ran through my corrigator.  Rhinestone flourish was an old one from Kaiser.  I love routing around through my supplies and finding bits and pieces that I can put together and make everything come out looking somewhat unified ;)  Well, onto my next project!  Thanks for stopping, have a wonderfully blessed day!

Blessings,
