From Frank Capra (1897-1991) American
Think: celebration and eventual triumph of the average guy, sentimentalism.
(Probably the first nonactor movie director to be known by the general public.)

I started my card off with a piece a watercolor paper, spritzed it lightly with water and then gave it one good shot of ink spray, took a paper towel and dabbed away the outside edges leaving me with a focal point for the camp fire.
The marsh mellows are paper pieced too, I wanted to make sure I had a piece of the cream white for the color scheme.

sweet colors! Thank you for playing along with us at Cardabilities :)
I love smores, so that card just made me smile. I love the details, like the shading on the marshmallows, and how your V8 moment told you to paper piece and layer the flames, that was brilliant and very effective. I love the elegance of the second card as well.
Simply stunning and elegant...thank you for joining us at House of Cards "classic and elegant" challenge this week. Suzanne xx

love the flames and smores card ... thanks for sharing how you did the background!
Sweet card!!! Love colour combo. Thanks for playing along at Cardabilities! Agnieszka
Two beautiful cards. How clever of you to do the paper piecing over your sprays. That was truly an inspiration, one I prob'ly wouldn't have thought to do, so would have had muddy flames. Loved your soft blue card as well. The light does make a big diff,but actually I liked both cards!!! TFS
Two super cute cards Sandee, love the paper-piecing, Carole Z X

Love your CAS style Thank's for playing with Cardabilities!
Both cards are so different from one another but I love them both!!! The first one is so cute and fun, and the second so elegant and striking!
Camp fires are one of my favorite summer time things... your card is just adorable! What a fun sentiment. So glad I spotted your card over at Tara's Linky party. You are very talented! I'm an NC girl too, but on the coast!
Happy Friday!
