Dear Friend,

Welcome to Lost Art Cards and Designs.

You might find tiny bouquets on paper, pretty places, words of encouragement, the artwork of others, or a quote from a good book.

My hope is that you will find something that delights the eye of your heart and remains a part of you for a lifetime.

One facet of the creativity in my soul.

Misty Vintage Garden

Backyard Berry Garden

Saturday we had Berry Strata for breakfast.  Though our main entree didn't last long, it prompted me to make this card using my new Berries and Buds stamping set from Rubber Stamp Tapestry.

Using one of  Sizzix Fruit and Vine embossing folder set,  running a sheet of white card stock through my Cuttlebug Machine I began to imagine what could be done with that beautiful imprinted design on the paper.  Getting out Pebbles chalks I shaded the berries, leaves and vines using matte and shimmer chalks.  I also shaded the background with a pale shade of shimmer chalk, then edged the border with  VersaInk,
Raspberry. 

Cutting the design diagonally I placed each half on the edges of raspberry textured cardstock and used a scrap of mini lime green rickrack to embellish the center of the card. After assembling the pieces I used Diamond Frost Stickles to make dewdrops on the berries and leaves.

Please feel free to comment below, I look forward to hearing from you.

Sweet Baby Hearts and Flowers

The Sweet Baby Hearts and Flowers card was designed using the Baby Set, the Tailor Heart set, and the Thank You Crochets set from Rubber Stamp Tapestry.  

Sitting inside watching the snow gently fall to the ground a few weeks ago gave me the time to experiment by putting several of these sets together and this is the result.

Out of the remaining paper I also made a few gift enclosure cards to match. I welcome your comments, please post them below.
