Happy Halloween 19

 Hi! Today I have a couple of fun Halloween cards to share featuring a variety of stamps from the PTI Friendship Jar Fall Fillers and Friendship Jar Summer Fillers. I'm not sure how old these sets are but they remain some of my favorites!

 I'm not a big Halloween fan but I thought these were cute enough to send some fun Halloween cheer ;)

I pulled out my Copic markers to color the pumpkins shown below and boy, do they seem to glow more like tomatoes than pumpkins in the photo! :) LOL

I'm joining along with the following challenges. For color inspiration: Color Throwdown:

For sketch inspiration: CAS(E) this Sketch!:

and for my second card, Just Add Ink ~ Just Choose Two (I chose colouring and sequins):

I hope you have a great week ~ Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)

merry christmas 16

 

Hi there! Today I have a few Christmas projects to share featuring die cut deer from the Tim Holtz Winter Wonderland die set. First up, is a rather clean and simple card featuring two of the smaller deer and the snowy die cut background:

I embellished with a die cut snowflake and stamped a sentiment from a PTI stamp set:

For sketch inspiration ~  Fusion Card Challenge:

Up next is a mixed media style Christmas tag featuring the largest die cut deer from the die set:

I used a combination of Sprays to create the blueish / green background then adhered the die cut forest which I had applied Distress Ink followed with a coat of Distress Glitter for an extra touch of shimmer and shine:

I'm entering the tag in the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge where the challenge is to create anything but a card.

Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great weekend!

Sending Best Wishes... 26

Hi there! Today I have a few Christmas cards to share. I'm joining along with the PTI Make It Monday challenge where the challenge is to create a card featuring a sentiment window.

Here's my interpretation:

I stamped / heat embossed a sentiment from the Season's Greetings set then embellished with pretty berries from the Beautiful Berries: Winter set:

Up next is another Christmas card featuring both a sentiment and berries from the Beautiful Berries: Winter set:
