Have a fun and spooky Halloween

Hello everyone, 

Here is the last card that I designed using the new stamp set called Halloween Ghosts. This is such a cute set with so many possibilities for a lot of cute cards and Halloween projects. 



I kept this card very clean and simple. I stamped the ghost in versafine ink then heat embossed it so that I could color it with Copic markers. I then highlighted the glasses with glossy accents. 

I found a piece of cardstock that matched the color I used on the glasses to stamp the sentiment. A square die was used to cut out the image and then I layered everything in black. As you can see by the shadow, I did use foam tape behind the ghost to give it some dimension. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Wishing you all kinds of happy.

Hello. Playing in The Freshly Made Sketches challenge today.


The leaf dies are from Lawn Fawn. I cut them out of Hammer Mill smooth cardstock and then blended an assortment of Oxide inks onto them.

The sentiment is from The Ton and the mesh die is from Cheery Lynn. The Stitched rectangle die is from MFT.

Sending get well wishes

Hello. Playing in the Paper Dragonfly challenge #21 - Fall Splendor and the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge #225. Went with the bottom row. 



Dies are from Lawn Fawn. I cut them out, added Versamark to them, and then dusted each one with a bit of perfect pearls. The sentiment die and stamp is from Wplus9.  Rustic cream cardstock is from Papertrey, Ink.  In real life those little leaves sure do shine nicely.

Trick-or-Treat

 Hello again! It's Laurie sharing another cute ghost from the NEW Halloween ghost stamp set.



I did a fun little corner fold on a piece of  Kelly Panacci Halloween mat pad from K&Company. I found a piece of cardstock in my stash that closely match the skeleton paper and colored the ghost using Copic markers. 

I had this string of bat ribbon in my stash, so I cut one off and stuck it to the trick-or-treat sentiment tag. The spider is a brad that I picked up at my local stamp store ages ago. 

I have one last card to share next week - stay tuned!

Hello, and some exciting news!

Hello everyone. I have some exciting news. I've been asked to join the design team over at The Flower Challenge.  WooHoo! Anyway, here is my first card for the Use a Die challenge this month.



I stenciled the flowers using the technique that JM showed a while back so that you get 4 card fronts at once. Then I went back and stamped the corresponding stamp for the flowers.  The stencil and stamps are from Altenew.  Inks are from Simon Says Stamp.

The hello die is a CZ die from Simon Says Stamp. The little dragonfly die is an old one from Memory Box. 

Thanks for stopping in. Have a creative day!
