Q is for Quote

Clean and Simple, Encouragement, Everyday, flowers, Ocassions

Hello friends!  I hope that all of U.S. friends celebrated a wonderful Thanksgiving!  I have a couple of scheduled posts while I’m away for today and tomorrow.  It’s a busy time of the year and I’ll try to keep up with my “blog duties” the best I can.

Today is a new challenge over at the Alphabet Challenge Blog!  Our next letter is “Q”, and this time it was my turn to pick a theme with this letter and I’ve chosen “Quote”   I hope you will join in the fun with us!  *Please remember that this is a bi-weekly challenge, so you have two weeks to enter.*  Here’s the project I’ve made for this challenge:

I’ve always loved using quotes for things and you can catch me with my kids saying quotes from movies all of the time.  We can say a quote and know exactly where it came from.  Some people don’t understand what we’re talking about which makes it even funnier!😉

I’ve pulled out a Catherine Pooler stamp set called “Notable & Quotable” that I don’t remember where I purchased it from, but I fell in love with the quotes in it.  It also came with the flower images in the set too.

For the background, I used a My Favorite Things “abstract” stencil and blended over it with several different colors.  I then took a couple of the floral images from the stamp set and stamped over the stenciled “blobs”.  I then white heat embossed one of the quotes from the stamp set and cut it out with a stitched oval die and then layered another stitched oval vellum layer behind it.  I popped it up with foam tape over the center of the background and then attached the entire layer over a white top folding A2 card base.  Lastly, I added some clear sequins with Stickles in the center of each one.

  • Thanks so much for stopping in today!  I hope you like my card and will come join in the fun with us!  I’ll be back again tomorrow with my monthly Art Journal Page!

  8. The layered ovals with vellum create such a soft focal point and the stenciled background adds wonderful energy. The embossed sentiment stands out beautifully against the playful floral stamping, and the sequins bring just the right touch of sparkle.

  10. I love all the stenciled and stamping layers you use for your background. And of course, Emerson’s quote about how to live, was the perfect finishing touch. Thanks for visiting my blog, and blessings!

  11. What an artistic card! The abstract stencil is the perfect mat for the floral stamping and the sentiment quote. Hubby and I are the same way with Seinfeld quotes! Almost daily too, lol. And when the kids are visiting, we try to stump them which isn’t very fair. Do you remember the Turkey Drop episode on WKRP in Cincinnati? At Thxgvg, I stumped them with “As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.” heeheehee xox
