Cardmaking spree

In my purging, I happened upon some card kits from Heartfelt Creations that I had bought and stashed, along with some Downton Abbey papers, dies, and embellishments I bought to make a stash for my MIL, a huge fan of the show. So I've started working through all that. Felt good to just get inky for a bit!

The coffee cards are all from a Heartfelt Creations card kit.

This is the last of a set of four cards from another Heartfelt Creations card kit, which also comes with enough to make 3-4 additional cards. I added Stickles to each one to make them pop. And I had already made the other three a while back and given them away, just never gotten around to finishing the last one.

Last one of that, and then the first from the Downton Abbey stuff.

Here's the second Downton Abbey card, shamelessly CASEd from a Pinterest pin and adjusted for what I had on hand and liked together. And so far I'm 2 for 2 at also adding a piece from my containers of charms and such, which is another goal of mine for the year. ;) Anyway, the card base, which was one of a set, had a circular patterned paper in the center, which I cut out with a circle die and mounted inside. Used a piece of acetate (packaging recycle!) as the window, cut the abbey and flourishes from gold card stock, added a hand mirror charm and a flower, some pretty lace, and a cut out inside.

last one for tonight. Not entirely happy with it, but the idea I had in my head is what it ended up being. Sometimes I'm just not happy with an end result no matter what! :lol:
