Card measures 4.5 x 3.75"

Cardstock:  Bazzill Basics, Paper Accents, Bee Paper Co.
Pens:  Spectrum Noir
Cart:  Autumn Celebrations

Craziest thing with this cart, notice how it cut the bottom of the card base a bit off-set, so the lines didn't match up.
I just used scissors to trim up the rounded corner which turned out OK, but I was a tad disappointed with the original cut.


I am just loving the Autumn Celebrations cartridge!  In particular the "block shadow" artwork on it is fabulous!  Is there a Winter Celebrations cart that's similiar?  I'll have to do some checking.  This card couldn't have been easier to do, as the cart has a card and tag feature that virtually do all the work for you.  I cut a second base to adhere to the back of the outline so that I could color in the fruits with my SN pens.  Quick, simple, & fun!

"Bestest Friends"

For my friend Kim, who has helped out so much with neighborhood events this year.  She deserves a little recognition!  Embellishments:  Embossed Paper, Ribbon, & Pearl Pen.

Crazy how much light changes these colors - I always struggle to get them to show true.  Believe it or not, the middle star and the banner outline are actually the same cardstock!  IMHO, it truly was "cinnamon" glitter.
