Guest Designer Rachel D

Here's a super cute card made by Rachel D using a set that she got from me during the February celebration.  The set was from AI,  how fun is this nurse?  the card says "The nice nurse is on vacation...get well soon!"  HA!  TOO cute.

Shake, Rattle & Roll

Here's an adorable skeleton that you stamp, die cut and then assemble. It's a kit that comes from Art Impressions.  It also comes with the stamped sentiment in the corner as well as the stamp of the hat it is holding plus a stamp of a tie.  Too cute, but also a lot of work to put together.

You know how much I like Skeletons and skulls though, so I had to get this set!

Happy Halloween from this old bat!

Here's a hilarious image from Art Impressions.  I totally love this hilarious image.  I hate to think it, but I am getting pretty close to being an old bat myself, lol!  perhaps not as old as the one shown here, but being around an elementary school all day sure reminds me how old I am.

I hope everyone is having a great week and is ready for Halloween tomorrow.  Is anyone getting all dressed up in costume for the Holiday?

Witchy woman

Here's a fun image from Art Impressions.  I think their lady images are just hilarious. I totally had to get one of the Halloween sets this year.  The sentiment says

"Black BATS are flying

and Witches are seen

Here come the Booos

It's Halloween!"

I have another card that I made from this set that I will be sharing next week, too fun!

Cheers, Holley

Happy Birthday Sister

Thought this funny card might give my sister a laugh today.  I know she could use a little humor.  I suppose I could have colored this fun bird in all blues, but he looks funny just the way he is.  I can imagine someone asking him who he is and him looking right at them and sarcastically saying, "I am the blue bird of happiness." ha!

Happy Bday dear sister. Have a great day.  I hope this coming year is better and brings you all that you want.  Hugs. 

Polar Bear Nap

Here's the cutest Whipper Snapper bear with a funny saying from Art Impressions. I just laughed when I heard this quip, as people like me (aka, getting old) hear the term "there's an app for that" all the time and we are like, "what? what's that?"  When I saw this stamp, I laughed and thought, oh, now if there was a NAP for that, now that is WAY better than an app. HA.  The beautiful textured papers on this card are all from Paper Temptress. YUM.

The base of the case is using thick textured black cardstock. You can tell that because I dusted the edges with white ink (esp on the corners). This cardstock is black text felt grandee.  I then added one of the Hambly Overlays.  This one is called White Hanging Heliconias.  The next textured paper is ruche called grey crepe. The image and sentiment were both stamped onto Heavenly White.
