It's Halloween

I made this card for my daughter who will be away at school for Halloween.  We just went for family weekend last week and had a Bingo game at the school, which she happily won a prize of schoo themed sweatpants.  I collected these Martha Stewart brads at my local Marshall's this season and knew I had to put them to use.

The inside are glittery stickers also from Martha.  She's a cat lover so I think she'll be happily surprised when she opens it.

It's a Secret


I made this for Terry for the Unidentified image swap.  Clearly this girl is a regular at Starbucks!!  Happy to say I got it to Terry before the due date.  And I'm even posting it on the release day.  Thank Terry for a fun image to work with.

Think Pink - Breast Cancer Awareness Month



Can't believe I finally made it back here.  I made this card for a swap to remind us that October is Breast Cancer month.  Sadly, we all know way too many people who have had to deal with the disease.  The ribbon is an old SU set that I snagged at a stamp show a few years back, the "Believe" was in the bargain bin at Michaels a while ago and the paper is from Basic Grey patiently waiting for some love.  Thanks for stopping by.

And here is the inside.................................

Another weekly challenge card for Outlines. This week it was a sketch. The exact sketch is more of a square card, but I really wanted to show this stamp some ink, so I tried to keep with the sketch, just altering the shape of the card and the placement of the banner.

Truly a challenge this week to figure out how to turn my "Non-St. Patty's day" stamps into something usable. Who doesn't love cupcakes?? So I figured, why not frost it green. The cupcake is from the block stamp "Enjoy". My card is only a 3x3, so I could fill it up with bling.

Here I am, late again. Almost missing the deadline for the weekly challenge. This week, it was to make a square card. I'm disappointed I couldn't get a good scan and it's too dark to take a camera photo. Just got the Birthday block stamps and wanted to show them some love. The paper is from Echo Park.

I'm sorry for the crooked picture. Can't get it to scan straight and the camera isn't available. I made this for the Outlines chalenge. This week it' use red, black and white. The butterfly is a chunk of the Bloom square block. I love those stamps. You can use the whole thing, parts of it, or even 1 section.
