Lil Devil

Hello and Happy Monday Crafty Friends!

If you're looking for my Halloween Blog Hop post, click here.

Today I'd like to share with you my very first card I created using my new Gypsy.

I also made this to enter in the Throwback Thursday challenge with Emma over at My Creative Time. The challenge is to use an older cartridge with a "card feature" and create a Halloween themed card.

I'm also entering this in Meljen's Designs Challenge #80, which is to use a ribbon.

Here is my card:




Details:
* Wild Card cartridge for he card base. I use my Gyspy to stretch the card into a circle shape (it was a skinny oval)
* Carstock is from my stash
* The Greeting Farm digi "Halloween Shedevil" colored using Prismacolor pencils
* Pink By Design sentiment from the SOM "Guess Who" set, embossed in white
* Wite gel pen for the stitching
* Black Diamond Stickles
* Ribbon

I've been having lots of fun playing with my Gypsy and I've already created a few cards. I've been using Design Studio for awhile, but now I see what all the fuss over this Gypsy is about. I love it!

Emma's challenge is open through Wed, Oct 19th if you'd like to enter.

Thanks for stopping by!
