Happy Fall!

In honor of Fall and soon to be Halloween, here's a card different from my usual style. I made a pumpkin shape from my Slice and cut it out to create a stencil. I stamped words using various random Halloween sentiments inside the shape and then used Tim Holtz distress inks to "color" it in and add the background. I stamped and clear embossed bats on the background and added the finishing touches. Fun!

Tags inspired by Holtz

















Was playing around with Tim Holtz's products for the first time. These tags were really fun to make, despite the mess :)

In celebration of the new Halloween stamps coming out from Kraftin' Kimmie tomorrow, she is hosting a challenge: Make it Spooky. Here's my card for this submission using Perfect Poison and a phrase from Autumn Afternoons by Ali Edwards.



















And just because I love this stamp sooo much, here's another one using her:

Welcome to the neighborhood!

My boss just bought a new house so I wanted to make her a cute card. I had saved this card made by Shellie Daniel and decided to make my own version. I love it and my boss did too :)

Happy Birthday Sailor Boy!

I finally decided to participate in my first DeNami stamp design challenge, woohoo! This one is to create a boy themed card using DeNami stamps, check out their boy themed stamps here. I used the Sailboat Chickie, Nautical stamp set, Under the Sea stamp set and the Steam Curl. I glittered the chickie using the Citrone Sparklets glitter and used yellow rhinestones for the treasure chest gold.
