TSG Sketch Challenge

Hi all!  Here is my entry for this weeks challenge at There She Goes.


I used the JFY: Halloween Additions stamp set for this card.  The sentiment is from the AmyR Witchful-ful Thinking stamp set.  The DP is AC Pumpkin Patch collection.  I added a final touch with Stickles and black flat back pearls.  I also did faux stitching with my white gel pen.  I hope you like the card and have a wonderfully scary Halloween week!  Boo!

Stencils Or Masks Challenge

Hi all!  This is my first DT entry for the Craft Room Challenge Blog.  I am so excited to be picked for their design team!  All of the ladies are super nice and supportive.


 I am new to this whole stencil/mask thing, so I started out slow.  I took some 6x6 patterned paper from the AC Pumpkin Patch collection and created a spider web background on it with the MFT Spider web Stencil and Dylusions Squeezed Orange ink spray.  I then cut it down to an A2 size and created my card using this as the background paper.  The stamp set I used was the super cute JFY: Halloween Additions from TSG.  The sentiment was from AmyR Stamps Witchful-ful Thinking.  I hope you enjoy my card, and it provides inspiration for you to dig out those stencils/masks.  Have a wonderful week!

Be Prepared

Hi all!  Here is my entry for this weeks challenges over at There She Goes and Simon Says Stamp.  They challenged us to make a Christmas/Holiday card early to get ready ahead of time for the busy season.



I know it is hard to see but I used Distress Rock Candy Stickles to add snowflakes to the background.  I used Diamond Stickles on the snowman and snow.  Finally, I added glossy accents to the light string.  I think it all added a nice finishing touch.  What do you think? 


I decided to pop up the snowman and the sentiment for a little added interest.


Finally, I finished the card with a similar layout as the front.  I hope all of you like this card, and it gets you into the holiday spirit.  Have a wonderful week!

Inside of the Card Challenge

Hi there!  I had so much fun today playing with my brand new stamp set from There She Goes called "No Tricks Only Treats".  I absolutely love Halloween!  It is my 2nd favorite holiday of the year just behind Christmas.  I decided to use the Zombie image because I get such a kick out of the coordinating sentiments.  They are such a hoot.  I colored this creepy cutie with my Copic markers.  The paper collection I used was Haunted Manor by Doodlebug Design.  I love those little Halloween owls!  I finished the front off with a little twine from the Twinery.  The card layout is from the current Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.


Here is how I finished off the inside of the card.  I used the brain stamp for a background stamped in Memento Grape Jelly ink.  I hope you enjoy my card and have a wonderful fall week.
