Well, my dear Blogland
Peeps , I am finally posting my latest cards made a while back for the SOTC group.
(Sisterhood Of the Travelling Cards)
My good friend Carol was the hostess for the months of March-April and this is what she requested from us :
" The theme for this round is going to be :: Unique :: Special :: You ! "
"God made us after His own image, however, we don't all think,
"God made us after His own image, however, we don't all think,
act or
look alike. Of course, we all love paper crafting though!
So that being
said, I would like to have you make cards unique to YOU!
I would love
you to use your favorite shape, color scheme, embellishment, layout
...what ever you really like to use in paper crafting.
I can't wait to
see what each of you create! "
"
For my cards I focused mainly on my most favorite colors in card stock and designer papers...
I absolutley adore this SU d/p...and hoarded it like for evah!...but now, sadly, I am down to just ONE 12x12 sheet left of this particular design! *sigh sigh* :(
Other personal favorites are: dry embossing tecnique, the use of either ovals or circle dies, and the
punch art tecnique. I also love using pearls to accessorize (amongst manyyyyyy other loved options *smile*)
and I often like to pop up my main image too. ♥
Hopefully the SOTC recipients liked receiving this card...am thrilled that I could finally use the bird punch again as it is often left 'abandoned' like so many other punches.
Also , the bird's feet were purposely NOT used here....lol ;o)
♥ Thank YOU for visiting!! Wishing you a BLESSED day! ♥

I love these colors together! The dry embossed circle is a great idea for texture and the perfect backdrop for the bird image. Great ideas!
Gorgeous! Love the colors, the embossing the pretty papers, the punched border and the beautifully colored and punched bird and branch!! So you, my dear friend!!!
What wonderful vibrant colours Paola, and I do love your bird and all the embossing dimension you have going on this. Gorgeous.
Blessings

Great Card Paola--I love all of the details and the colors are perfect!
Super card design! THis is one of my fave SU papers of all times :) Love this (didn't get one *wah!* but love drooling over it here! I am sure this is a refreshing recollection of your much needed time 'away' in the woods, too - the nature, the trees, the freshness of God's beauty and birds all around! Fab-u-lous work!
