Good morning!
I'm back to share a few more October Papertrey projects with you. All supplies are linked at the bottom of this post.
First up is a card using the new Flower Fusion #9 along with the Layerz and Mega Mat Stack 3 dies.
For this card I folded a piece of patterned paper to use as my card base, then ran it through my Big Shot with the fold just slightly below the cut line of the Layerz Mat Stack die. It makes for a fun little shaped card base.
Next up is my card using the Faith and Hope set. I used it in a little different way and created a card suitable for someone in the military.
i created the background using stars from All Star Team and the stripes from Distressed Stripes.
That's all for projects today, but one other bit of news...it's my day to post over on the Paper Crafts Connection blog. I've got a fun project involving pumpkins AND a cool little giveaway that you might want to check out HERE!
I also had a chance to put a few things in my Etsy shop. I hope to get to listing a bunch more in the week to come!

Great job! The flowers card is so fresh and pretty, and the hero card has just the right feel to it.

Okay, so these are both great, but that first card is just wow! I love the shape and it is just so cute!

I'm running out of adjectives to describe how great your projects are. What great inspiration you provide. Love both of these cards - what fun to use the mat stack as a card shape. Thanks so much.

Beautiful cards, Betsy!
Hey, when I was in Omaha, I met some gals who I think went to your WCMD class way back when. I hope your ears were burning because they just loved you! :)
