L'Shanah Tovah--Wishing You a Good Year

Tonight is the start of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year (5778).  L'Shanah Tovah--I am wishing all of my friends a sweet new year.

This is the card I sent to family and friends this year.  We celebrate the new year with the symbols of apple and honey, to signify our hopes for a sweet year.  This year, I focused on the apples.

I dug deep into my stash for the apple stamps from PTI Fruit Fusion, and paired them with a newish set, also from PTI--L'Shanah Tovah for my sentiments.  And, I used a brand new die (Brushed Off Rectangle) for the first time to get that fun kraft mat.

Here is a peek at the inside of the card.

I am entering this card at Retro Rubber #71: Anything Goes.  The apple stamps are at least 5 years old--could be older--and the sentiments are 2 years old.  I am also playing along at The Paper Players #362: Clean and Simple Harvest.  Of course, the apples are what I am harvesting this fall.

Masculine Birthday and L'Shanah Tovah

This week, we are challenged to use florals on a masculine card at PTI Make it Monday #261.  I used Peaceful Gardens and Larger than Life and a masculine color palatte for my card.

I often use trees or leaves on masculine cards, but this is the first time I have actually used flowers.  I picked some flowers that did not look too floral, along with other nature images.

I am in the process of mass producing a bunch of Jewish New Years cards that I need to mail by next week.  The design fits the challege this week at The Paper Players #313: CAS Taste of Fall.

I used PTI What the Doodle Apple and a sentiment from L'Shanah Tovah.

Here is a peek at the inside.

L'Shanah Tovah--Wishing You a Good Year

Today is Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year (5776).  L'Shanah Tovah--wishing all my friends a good year.

Earlier this year, PTI introduced a cute little $5 stamp set called L'Shanah Tovah--how lucky I am to have some new stamps for my new years cards this year.

My design is pretty much copied from one of Nicole's cards she made for the release of this product.

I stamped a 2 color message inside the card.  My Misti made it really easy to make a bunch of these cards.

I am entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #161:  Anything Goes and Simon Says Wednesday Stamptember Use a Stamp.
