Winnie & Walter is celebrating World Cardmaking Day with a bang. There's a sale, challenges, and this blog hop. All details can be found here.
More than delighted to be part of the Winnie & Walter World Cardmaking Blog Hop. There's some super serious talent here (some of my favorite crafters) and I cannot wait to see what they are sharing. You should have come from the mega talented Nina Marie Trapani's blog.
Plus prizes!! 5 random winners in total will be drawn from all the comments left on the different stops along the hop. Deadline is October 13th. Each winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to the Winnie & Walter shop.
I've got two cards to share. First up is one of my favorite color combinations -- gold, white, and black.
The sentiments and dies are from Winnie & Walter's In Bloom: Frenchy's Festive Florals with Angelica Suarez. And I LOVE this sentiment.
The "tree" triangle is cut out of Modern Graphic paper from Essentials by Ellen. It is black and white paper, but I put it through the Minc to add gold foil on top of the black dots. The Joy die is stamped and layered 5 times to get a nice thick focal point.
Hope you are able to carve out some time to stamp today!
MOOD WHEN DONE = What the heck am I doing as part of this lineup of stampers?? Thanks to Taheerah with Winnie & Walter for inviting me. Haven't done design work in over a year and this was fun.

Very simple and creative designs.

love both cards!
You have just proved that simple is beautiful when it's done right! Very nicely done. Thank you.
Hmmm... World Card Making Day? Well, gee, if I'd remembered I would have declared it a stamping day. As it is, there are other things on the agenda, but maybe I can carve out some time. You wonder how you wound up in this line up of stampers? It's pretty obvious to me. You've got two fantastically creative cards in your signature CAS style. You used these stamps and dies beautifully!
Clean, simple and nice. Not over kill.

Glad to see you came out of design-retirement for W&W, Joan - really wonderful designs, and execution, too! That subtle little Christmas tree is so darling - you, E.H., and that paper are going to push me over the edge to buy a Minc, Joan! but that would be a very good thing, right?
