Inspired By...All the Peels and many friends!

 Hello crafty friends, it's a special day! It's Thursday and we have a new challenge at Inspired By! And don't you love surprises? Each member of the Design Team has invited a friend to be a guest designer and share their cards along with ours this week. 

I am thrilled to have Nancy Leppek joining me today, she is a dear friend who always inspires me with her fun and beautiful cards! Welcome, Nancy!

Nancy's card is a gorgeous take from our Christmas prompt this week. I love the pops of those white berries and bow on this country style wreath.  You can find all the details on Nancy's card at her blog HERE.  



For my card I went with the All the Peels theme and brought my apple stamps and dies to the game! I made a shorter version of the basket and used large white brads to add detail and dimension to the basket rim. 


 I will list my supplies below and keep this short. Be sure to head to the site to see all the samples and guest designers this week. 







I hope you will join us and enter your own projects to the gallery.

 Thanks so much for your visit today, hope you have been inspired to create!

Be yourself

          Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!  














Supplies used: 

Stamps: Honey Bee stamps - Bushel and a Peck, Bitty Buzzwords***


Accessories - Paper from MFT, large brads, MFT - Stitched scallop rectangle frames


** this set has a permanent spot on my table. I grab it often!

So sweet of you to ask me to join in this collaboration! Your basket of apples came out so perfect! Totally love how you brought the buffalo check from the Christmas photo into your design with the leaves! Who says that brads can't make a comeback! What a genius idea for your basket rim! I have tons of them still in a drawer in my studio. Thanks again for having me! Hugs my friend!

Awesome card Cindy! I love your sweet basket of yummy looking apples, and those gingham leaves totally make me smile!! Great way to use up some of those brads too! I think I have like a bazillion of them somewhere in my craft room...should probably hunt them up and use a few!! 😁 Sweet, sweet card Cindy...love it!! 😊❤

Oh, you've both knocked it out of the park! "All the Peels" -- what a fun name for a theme! Nancy's card is warm and inviting, and your card makes me feel happy all over!
