Huntington Cards for Card Box

As Promised, here are a few cards I got made yesterday evening to match with the Card Box from the previous post.  They all use the Huntington Paper packet which consists of 6 sheets of patterned paper, and 6 sheets of cardstock.(*** If you were hopping along on the New Product Blog Hop, please return there, you will find a link at the bottom of this post.)

For this card I used a pattern from the Make It From Your Heart Vol II.  This is Pattern #20.  I turned it on it's side.  I also added a piece of Champagne CS for the sentiment.  I used the smaller flower stamp from Happy Autumn(D1550) give a background, it is stamped in 2nd generation Desert Sand.  The sentiment also comes from this stamp set, and is stamped in Autumn Terracotta.  I distressed al the papers using a sponge and chocolate ink.

For my second card, I used another pattern from the new How To Guide.  This is pattern #24.  I used 2 stamp sets to make this card.  The sentiment is stamped in Barn Red, and is from Pefect Fit-Thanksgiving(B1427).  Then I stamped the flower image form Happy Autumn(D1550) two times on scrap paper and fuzzy cut them out.  I Adhered the first directly to the card.  The second one, I cut out pieces from sections of the flower, and then added 3D foam tape to pop it off the first flower.I didn't place it over the first exactly, I overlapped them just a bit, so you can see the flower below.

My final card today also is from a pattern in the new How To Guide.  This is pattern #21, and once I had all my squares, I then cut them diagonally to make triangles.  Then carefully I started to place them onto the piece of Cocoa CS.  I sanded the edges of the Cocoa to sort of give it that vintage vibe.  The sentiment is from the Stamp Set Count Your Blessings(C1555), and is stamped in Cocoa ink. 

You can find the card box here, this link will return you to the Blog hop featuring many fabulous projects.
