Trick or Treat

Supplies: Stamps: Lawn Fawn Trick or Treat  Paper: purple glitter cardstock, Neenah solar white  Ink: Memento tuxedo black  Accessories: Copic markers, Prickly Pear die cut, 1 3/4 inch circle punch, grosgrain ribbon, swiss dots embossing folder, dimensionals

Just a quick and fun Halloween card to share today. I stamped the candy corns to created the background, partially embossed the bottom of the card, and added a sentiment.   Now I have to complete the insides of all of the Halloween cards I created and get them ready for the mail! 

Have a great week!

Happy Halloween!

Supplies: Stamps: Hero Arts  Ink: Memento tuxedo black  Paper: Paper cut black, orange from Hobby Lobby, Neenah white  Accessories: Martha Stewart spider web punch, Sizzix scallop rectangle frame, googlie eyes

With this fall weather here, it is time for me to start thinking about getting my Halloween cards done.  I cased this card for the featured stamper challenge on Splitcoast Stampers.  I kept the card pretty close to the original, because I really liked it!  I made some subtle changes; the orientation, different spider stamp that included a sentiment, added an orange glitter scallop frame, and I added googlie eyes to my spider.  I thought it would have been fun to use purple glitter paper, but I didn't have any.  I might have to sneak away to Joann to get some and make another!  :)  Thanks for looking!

Apples to Apples

Supplies: Stamps: Lockhart  Paper: Gina K Heavy Base Weight  Ink: Memento tuxedo black    Accessories: corner rounder, copic markers, score buddy, gingham ribbon

I made this card for two challenges.  The first is the CASology cue card: Apples, and the second is CASual Fridays theme: Back to School.  When I was looking through my images I came across this stamp, I thought it definitely fit the apple cue card, and a great image for a back to school notecard for a teacher.  I colored my image and kept the details clean and simple.  Thanks for stopping by!

Kick Up Your Heels, and Celebrate!

Supplies: Stamps: cowgirl boots  Ink: Memento tuxedo black  Paper: Papercut whip cream, early espresso, patterned paper  Accessories: copic markers, twine, gems, glue dots, Papertrey circle die cuts

Hello!  My niece celebrated her birthday this week, and we are going to her party tomorrow.  She LOVES horses, so when I found this stamp at a rummage sale I couldn't pass it up!  I colored the boots with copics, added gems to the center of the flowers, and attached the lasso I made out of twine.  Thanks for stopping by!

I Know School is Just Beginning but...

Supplies: Stamps: Stampendous: Changito Monkey Lawn Fawn: Happy Summer and A Little Birdie Told Me  Paper: Gina K white  Ink: Memento tuxedo black, SU riding hood red  Accessories: Stampin Up ribbon, copic markers, A Little Birdie Told Me die cuts, dimensionals, corner rounder

I know school is just beginning but the teacher in me is already counting down to summer!  Ha!  I made this card for the CASology cue word: book.  I am not a reader, I try, but my eyes just get heavier and heavier as I read.  Which turns into nap time for me!  So I thought this Changito monkey image would be great for this challenge.  Maybe I could read through osmosis like Changito! :)  Thanks for stopping by!

Sending Smiles!

Supplies: Stamps: Gina K  Ink: Memento tuxedo black  Paper: white and gumball green  Accessories: My Favorite Things banner die cut, twine, copic markers, glossy accents, clear beads

Hello!  I'm back with another challenge card.  This is for CASual Fridays challenge to use the colors; orange, aqua, and green.  I thought of this fish bowl image right away.  I just love it, it is cute and fun to color!  I jazzed it up a bit by adding some glossy accents over the fish bowl to make it shiny like glass, and then added some clear beads for the "rocks" at the bottom of the fish bowl.  You can see the shine and beads in the close up picture.

Thanks for stopping by!

CAS Bulletin Board

Supplies: Stamps: Stampendous  Paper: white cardstock and cork paper  Ink: Memento tuxedo black  Accessories: red copic markers, light blue Sharpie pen, glossy accents, dimensionals

This week the cue word is Paper for the CASology challenge.  I have to admit when I saw the cue word, I was like oh man!  I went to my handy dandy catalog of all of my stuff, and I stumbled upon the Stampendous Changito monkey teacher set.  In it, it had this cute paper memo image, and the light bulb in my head started to flicker! :)  I originally stamped it as it was, it had the word memo on the original image.  Then I thought I could personalize it and write my own little memos.  So I stamped the papers again leaving the center blank, I wrote my messages, colored the push pins, and added glossy accents to the push pins to make them shiny like plastic.  When I adhered the memos to the cork paper I added score tape to the top and then a little dimensional at the bottom.  I did this to make it look like the memos were actually pinned to the bulletin board, and add some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by!
