Concord & 9th October Release! I’m a Guest Designer!

Holla! Hey! Hello! Happy Friday! I'm super excited to say that I am one of the guest designers for the month of October for Concord & 9th! I'll be sharing projects every Friday for the next four weeks, using new stamps and dies from the October New Release. YIPPEEEE! I've known for a while, and now I'm excited to share the news and show you some projects. CLICK HERE to visit the Concord & 9th Blog!

I hope you had a good week – and are looking forward to a fun weekend too. My week was busy and full of activities and creating. Some of you have emailed or messaged me about this crazy power outage situation here in Northern California. UGH. So I live in Sacramento County. When you look on the big power outage map, my county is the only one that has power. We are not on PG&E grids for electricity. We have SMUD. So I've been good here. About five miles east – all my foothill friends have zero power. It's the strangest thing I can remember happening around here. Thank you for checking on me tho. Now, back to cards! 

The first product bundle I'm showcasing is the Annuals Bundle. A beautiful stamp set, matching dies, and calendar pages. You can create your own beautiful calendars with it (there are monthly words), make cards, and use it in your bullet journals and scrapbooking. Super versatile! I chose to make a card with the gorgeous florals and the pretty word dies. I used a graphic color palette of black, white, grey and pops of bright pink. 

My finished card is A2 sized with a white card base. I layered dark grey cardstock, and then vellum. The top layer is white cardstock that I stamped with the graphic image from the stamp set. Basically making my own patterned paper! I love doing that!

I stamped and die cut the floral image and colored it with my Copic markers. I die cut the words dies from pink and black cardstock. The friend word was stamped in Versamark ink and embossed with white embossing powder. I love this look of sharp contrast.

The center rectangle part of the card is mounted onto the card with foam tape. Then the floral is mounted on with foam tape also. I added a few sequins for just a bit of sparkle!

Thank you so much for visiting today! If you're new to my blog and came over from the Concord & 9th Blog – welcome! Happy to meet you! Happy crafting! I'll see you on Sunday or Monday – not sure when I'll get posting! LOL.
