Happy Labor Day.....

Good morning everyone and Happy Labor Day.  Today marks the end of summer and we must now start looking toward Fall and Winter.  I will welcome the cooler temperatures and look forward to having more time for playing in my craft room.  There is always so much yard work and outdoor activities during the summer that I start to crave a little time to just sit and play!

This morning I'm sharing a card I have made using some of my Heartfelt Creations stamps. 

 
I love these stamps and decided it was time to bring some of them back out into the open again.
The image is from HCPC 3451 Going to the Chapel PreCut Set and the sentiment is from HCPC 3450 Cross and Lilies PreCut Set.  I used my Ranger Distress inks to color the image and some pretty Spellbinders dies to frame them.  A little piece of pretty lace and some pretty paper and your card is all ready to go.  I hope you enjoy this as much as I have loved making it. 
 
I hope your holiday is a good one and please be safe whatever you do.

I love the soft browns with a hint of pink of this!! Soft, femine, but not over the top "girly"! hehe

I wish I could look at lace and see borders like you do! It adds such a wonderful texture

Lovely card Glenda..Ditto on the welcoming of fall and cool temps.
Have fun getting back in the grove of Mon-Fri, I same to need the routine anymore. I wanted to paint today, but now there is high humidity. So off to organize my Crafty space. Enjoy the day.

Glenda, so good to hear from you! I'm glad you had a great Labor Day, I have mixed emotions about the end of summer but I'll definitely welcome the cooler weather! Your creation is gorgeous, love your distress ink. Have you switched from Copics? I can't believe all the $'s I've invested in them (shhhh!).
Hugs,
Marsha
