Well after a bit of a blitz last week, this week is a little bit quieter. To be honest I am catching up from all the stamping events in October! I had a great time at my Bright & Beautiful class here in the stamp room on Sunday and have started planning another class for the end of the month. Today, my friend Linda has created a clean and wonderful sketch for us at Freshly Made Sketches. It was just what I needed since my brain was pretty fried.
You know what happens when I’m feeling creatively tired? I go to my happy colors, stamps and ribbons. I think we can safely call this a “Jen card”. Fall colors are always my favorite and this new Mossy Meadow is a perfect green. And then there is Early Espresso. I jumped for joy when I saw this new Early Espresso Seam Binding in the catalog this year and it was on an express UPS vehicle right to my house! I used the Kraft card stock for my base and then stamped Hardwood in Crumb Cake ink onto Naturals Ivory card stock. The sentiment is from For All Things and the little leaves are from the Color Me Autumn DSP (just fussy cut out). I added part of a Tea Lace Doily and some retired Natural Trim Ribbon under my shabby bow. It pays to pull out favorites since this came together really quickly. Oh….and did you see???

Ok, now hurry right over and see what the rest of the team has created for you this week. Amazing stuff as always! And you have to go tell Linda how much you love this. Stick around and read her posts. LOVE her sense of humor!
This week is going to be quiet as I work on videos, tutorials and classes. I hope to have more to share with you next week. My boys have been home a lot over the last few days. Yay for being mom but not very productive for getting stamping done. Ah well….the stamping will be here…. Until next time, thanks so much for stopping in today!

Oh jentimko you sure do know how to rock those shabby bows…..it is perfect with that background and doily! Beautiful fall card – love it!
I love, love, love the simple beauty of this card! Your choice of colors is perfect and those green leaves look so realistic.
I love how this looks with the Hardwood background, the doily and the seam binding ribbon. It’s shabby chic and elegant all at the same time! And I’m with you on the Early Espresso seam binding!
Beautiful card Jen! I really like the look of the woodgrain against the Kraft! So elegant! Love the bow and the doily! Very pretty!
“Jen” cards are always beautiful! I love the mix of the shabby bow, woodgrain and doily.
I LOVE the gorgeousness (if that’s a word) of this, it has a lovely vintage feel about it, I think it’s that lovely, big, floppy ribbon, doily and button! Thanks so much for the inspiration! Hazel xx
Just beautiful Jennifer! I love these colours together – they have such a warm feel!
You’ve outdone yourself again, Jennifer! There are so many beautiful details on this card and all perfectly coordinated. Amazing.
Perfectly simple – the richness of the bow, the hint of old-fashioned doily and the dimension leaves are all gorgeous together!
