More fun with die-cuts!

I tried out another new Sizzix die -- this one's called Flourish and Leaf. It cuts -- get this -- a flourish and a leaf! The two shapes work well together or separately. I did both on these cards.

First:

A little more Halloween goodness. Here, some more Matilda from Cosmo Cricket -- the dp and cutie chip stickers. Like the spider cards in my post from a few days ago, I used more awesome glitter paper for the die cuts on today's cards. It's made by Best Creations, and it's amazing! It's thick, sparkly, and the glitter is magical -- it will. not. come. off. At all! Not even if you want it to. Worth every penny.

Next holiday:

This time, I focused more on the leaf. This would work for either Thanksgiving or just a lovely autumnal thank-you card. The dp this time is Jillibean Soup -- it was white with red script, but I gave it a good dose of Glimmer Mist. Now it's orange. I love orange! The stamp is from  We R Memory Keepers Maple Grove collection -- one of those tiny 99-cent sets that come in so handy. At the bottom, some lovely May Arts silk ribbon.

Holiday 3:

This may be the closest to shabby chic I've ever come, no? (Not that I'm saying it's all that close!) Lotsa layered bits -- the die cuts, papers (Basic Grey Jovial), border (KI Memories), crocheted lace, twine, and a nice chip button from Jenni B. The green dp is embossed with a Cuttlebug folder from this set (which I picked up at Scrappy Chic awhile ago and then kinda forgot -- hard to remember Christmas in July!). I threw a few olive pearls in the corner just for kicks.

So, three holidays -- one die. Cool beans.

I'm off to craft some more. Any big plans for your weekends?
