Inspired by...

... the water bottle tags that I posted on Sunday, I decided to make some cards using the same elements.

I also created these cards for the Movement Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.

Here are the cards I made, using PTI cardstock (classic kraft, vintage cream), stamps (leaf prints, counting my blessings), patterned paper (dearest jane), impression plate (woodgrain) and dies (counting my blessings).

At first, I thought I'd just impress my word dies to create my sentiment, but I didn't end up liking that effect too much, so I added the diecut patterned paper into the impression, which made me much happier!

Here are my cards:




Thanks for looking!

  1. I've been skulking around your blog for awhile now, Leigh...your creations are always so amazing. I'm simultaneously inspired and shamed, because I can't for the life of me figure out how you do it all! I certainly can't manage to fit in half the things in my life that you seem to do so effortlessly...and I don't even have a full time job! Wow, I wish you'd share your secret! ;) Anyway, just wanted to say how much I enjoy looking at your beautiful art. Thanks for sharing.

  2. That's a really neat effect, Leigh. I'd never think of impressing the letters and then adding a die cut on top, but I think it looks awesome!!

  3. Leigh,
    These are beautiful. I loved them as tags, but think there are just as great (if not better) as cards.

  5. Love your cards inspired by your water bottle tags. Those tags were so great. I made a tag for a party we are going to next week, inspired by them. Now, to just take a picture and post--so stay tuned. You are the queen of word die cuts, in my book.
