Hello Stampers!  My nephew is turning 21 on Halloween!  How did that happen?!  I can't believe how quickly he grew up!!  I did get some inspiration for this card, from a card I saw on Pinterest:

For my card I started by die cutting a vellum star and piercing it.  Next I die cut the 21 out of the silver glimmer paper and adhered them to the star.  After this I found the patterned paper, and adhered it to a white card base.  Next I cut out a kraft strip and stamped the sentiment on it.  I adhered this strip to the patterned paper, and then adhered the star as well.  I die cut a bunch of gold stars and adhered them to the card.  For the inside I stamped my sentiment and die cut a star out of it.

That's all for now!  Thanks for stopping by!!

Hello Stampers!  I was able to get into my craft room today.  I had parent teacher conferences this past week so I was not able to make a card last weekend, as I was filling out conference reports!  Ugh!  For this card I found this card to CASE for the Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.

For my card I changed the orientation.  I started with a petal pink card base.  I cut a white layer and partially embossed it.  I added the petal pink ribbon to cover the seam between the embossed and non embossed sides.  Next I stamped, die cut, and colored in the focal image.  I popped it up with some dimensionals, and accented it with some gems.  For the sentiment I heat embossed it in white, die cut it, and adhered it to the white layer.  For the inside I stamped the sentiment, and die cut it.  I added a petal pink mat and that completed this card.

That's all for now, thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!!  I'm here to share a card that I made for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  I selected this card as inspiration for my card:

For my card I started by die cutting the circles, and matting the strip of circles in black.  Next I cut a strip of white cardstock and ink blended it.  I stamped the witch three times and cut them out with a 1 3/8" circle punch, and adhered them in the circle cut outs.  For the sentiment I stamped, die cut, and adhered it behind the black panel.  For the card base I die cut the spider web.  I popped up the focal panel with 3D foam squares.  For the inside I cut out a strip of white card stock and stamped the sentiment, and added a spider web and spider.  I matted it in black and adhered it to the inside of the card.

Hello Stampers!  I've been a bit MIA.  With the new school year starting and then I got Covid my cardmaking time has fallen to the wayside.  But I'm back!  I am excited to share this card I made for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  I absolutely love this skeleton pumpkin image!!  Here is the card I CASED:

For my card I started by ink blending the main arch layer.  Then I used the BetterPress system to letterpress the skeleton/pumpkin and sentiment.  It looks so cool!  Then I matted the arch with a black arch.  I wanted just a little something extra on the front so I added some black and white twine at the top.  For the inside I duplicated the arch look and added a die cut sentiment.  Easy Peasy this one was!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I'll catch ya next weekend!  Have a great week!

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the Clean and Simple Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers, the theme is World Letter Writing Day.  For my card I started wby die cutting the envelope.  Then I die cut the paper that goes in the envelope, stamped the sentiment on it, and slid it in the envelope.  to secure the envelope and note I used a flower brad that matched the patterned paper.  Next I picked out another patterned paper as the background, and die cut it into a square.  I die cut the scalloped square out of navy cardstock to mat this. to finish the front I adhered my layers together and popped up the envelope using dimensionals.  For the inside I found another strip of patterned paper and adhered it in the card, leaving room to write a note.

That's all for now, thanks for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the Clean and Simple Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  The theme for this week's challenge is water.  For my card I made a mini slimline card, using Gina K's Master Layouts 7.  I stamped, die cut, and colored in the loon images.  I matted them with a black cardstock circle in order to have them stand out.  Then I die cut the layers.  I did add a ribbon treatment before popping up the loons.  I also added a stamped sentiment.  For the inside I kept it simple by adding some cat tails and a sentiment.

That's all for now!  Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!  It is Featured Stamper Sunday over at Splitcoaststampers!  Here is my inspiration card:

I was drawn to this card because of the use of black.  It really caught my eye.  I also really like the look of the white wash technique.  I heat embossed the floral image and die cut it using a circle die.  Then I did the white wash and let it dry while I finished the card.  To mat this image I die cut the decorative circle out of black, and die cut a white circle to go behind it to highlight the decorative edge.  I also cut out a card base and added a white and a black layer.  By this time my image was dry.  I wanted to add some color on top of the white wash, so I got out my water brush and some melon mambo ink and applied ink to the florals, then I added some old olive to the leaves.  It is very faint but there is some color.  I think I should have used more white ink to allow those colors to stand out.  I took this circle and popped it up on the decorative circle, added some sheer ribbon, and adhered my layers together.  For the inside I did some simple stamping.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
