Fairy and Unicorn Believe

Good Morning Ladies,
We are into fall but not many leaves have changed yet. I am looking forward to the colors of inspiration changing. To get out and walk in the woods with no bugs. I love fall!
Today's project is Fairy and Unicorn Believe
This is another framed piece created for the La Porte County abandonment this Saturday.
This piece was created using mixed media paper and watercolors. The trees, leaves, and grass were created using Stampscapes stamps. The unicorn image is from Lavina. The word Believe is from Recollections. The fairy in the moon is from Creative Visions. The fairy in the moon was from a grab bag I purchased at the stamp show in Fort Wayne. If Creative Visions still have these grab bags they are an awesome buy.
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog

Motor Cross Cool Dude

Good Morning Ladies,
I was home a little early yesterday. So I was able to work on art to abandonment projects for this Saturday. Today's framed piece is for that movement this Saturday.
The project for today is Motor Cross Cool Dude
As I mentioned above this is a piece for this Saturday. The background was created using a smoosh spray technique piece. At the bottom of this background Stampscapes rocks were stamped. They were then colorized with watercolors. The positive message was stamped. This message was created using stamps from Casual Fridays. The motor cross die cut was cut from my new Gina Marie die that I purchased at the Fort Wayne stamp show.

More new stamps from the Fort Wayne stamp show are used on this card. The German Shepherd dog is from Creative Visions. He was stamped on watercolor paper and colorized with watercolors. The sentiment is from Dare 2 Be Artzy. Textured paper and Washi tape top this card off.

Creative Vision Life Horse

Good Morning Ladies,
Wow did it pour down rain here yesterday. But I was thankful it was not snow. This fall is moving fast. It is time to winterize and put the camper away.
The card for today is Creative Vision Life Horse
 I finally cracked out some of the new stamps I bought at the Fort Wayne stamp show. This wild horse is from Creative Vision. I just love their stamps. They had a fantastic sale at the show. The horse was stamped on watercolor paper and colorized with watercolors. The sentiment is from Red Rubber Designs. The panel was mounted on black and grey cardstock.
This is the inside sentiment also from Red Rubber Designs.

Two New Die Card Folds

Good Morning Ladies,
I put together three raffle baskets last night for this weekends agility trial. Can't wait to see the others so I can see how many tickets I need.
Today there are two cards for Two New Die Card Folds
 This is the first new die fold card. It is a Sizzix die card. The scene was created using two new die sets from the show. The sun and clouds are from Gina Marie Dies. The kite is from Lawn Fawn. I am now hooked on Lawn Fawn.
This is the inside sentiment from the Stamps of Life.
This is a card die from Elizabeth Crafts. This card die belongs to my friend. A little more complicated to do but I did finally do it. The stamp set is from Close To My Heart (CTMH). If I make this card in the future it will have more stamping all the way around. I didn't realize that all the stamping must be done before it is put together.
This is the card pulled out.
This is panel two.
This is panel three.
Happy Scraps,
