Happy Thoughts

Hello I working on a new challenge at

This is a sketch challenge which I will post below with an optional theme of mixed patterns.

For my card, this is totally out of a Recollections pad including the sentiment so that everything matches.
Just trimming out pieces and matching the sketch and it's all done.  The additional dimensional butterfly is also from Recollections. 
All put on a side fold purple cs base with some added Neuvo drops.

Happy Halloween

Hello ... we working a new challenge at  IF YOU GIVE A CRAFTER A COOKIE The cookie for this challenge is

For my card, I'm using an image from Dr, Digi, Lil Jason.  I used all markers on the image.  I trimmed it down and framed it with Kraft CS.  The front panel spider web cs is from Recollections, a Halloween pad.  I inserted a piece of black cs between the Digi and the panel and used a white gel pen on the faux stitching.  The sentiment was colored with marker and then framed with black cs.  Everything was then added to a side fold black cs base.

I hope you have fun playing along with us on this challenge and I wish you all the best of luck as well.

Trick orTreat

Hello Everyone  -- Time for another challenge at  Try Stampin' or not on Tuesday. For this challenge we have a sketch:

For my card, I started with a Digi from Bugaboo and I used all markers on the image.  I trimmed it down and framed it with black cs.  The background cs is from Recollections and the bottom maroon is just plain cs.  The ribbon I had in my stash as well as that puffy mylar heart.  That sheet is getting a lot of action lately.

I hope you have fun playing along with the challenge.  Thank you for stopping by.

Pumpkin Stack

Hello --It's an  ANYTHING GOES CHALLENGE at Brown Sugar Challenge our sponsor this month is

For my card, I am using the image, Stacked Pumpkins.  I used markers and a water brush on the pumpkins.  For the card front, I blended Mustard Seed, Wild Honey, Fired Brick, Dusty Concord, Shaded Lilac, Wilted Violet, Faded Jeans and Soot across the front.
Out of black card stock I cut using Lawn Fawn: the fence, using Penny Black: the tree and using MFTs: the stitched flag.  The sentiment was stamped in white embossing powder and a holiday stamp by Avery Elle.  The leaves were cut with a Spellbinders die 'foliage' out of scrap blended with Mustard Seed, Crushed Olive and Peeled Paint.  All set on a black cs front and then again on a black cs side fold base.  Spooooooky.

I hope you have fun playing along with this month's challenge, remember, it's anything goes.

Thanks for stopping by.

Owl Boo

This is my team card for

Pattie's Creations.

The theme this month is Halloween

I am using the image, 'owl silhouette'.  I masked off the owl and then I blended Squeezed Lemonade, Carved Pumpkin, Fired Brick, Seedless Preserves, Wilted Violet, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot distressed inks.  Using the die cut from MFTs, I cut the grass out of black cs.  The moon is a circle punch that I dipped a couple of times into Lawn Fawn glow in the dark embossing powder.  The multi dips gave it an awesome texture and I love that it glows.   The sentiment was edged with Wilted Violet distress ink.
I hope you have fun playing along with this challenge this month.

Thinking of Fall

Hello, we have another challenge on the run at If YOU GIVE A CRAFTER A COOKIE The inspiration cookies for this round are:

For my card, I started with a stamp and die set from Simon Says  - Ornate Leaves.   I stamped them in Crushed Olive, Salty Ocean and Carved Pumpkin.  I then added clear embossing powder to give them a bit of texture and shine.  The Y-O-U was cut multiple times out of kraft and stacked and then topped with embossing ink and clear embossing powder for a cool look like leather.  I stacked up all my leaves on a piece of texture green wood-grain paper from DCWV and added the sentiment and bakers twine along with a couple of acrylic gem stones.  All on top of a top fold kraft cs base.

I hope you have fun playing along with this cookie challenge.
