Halloween Love

I have to say Halloween is my favorite time of the year to make cards!  Not that I send out a bunch or have ever really sent out Halloween cards before, but the stamp images are just so fun!  I love all of them!

I really fell in love with these two from last year, but never had the opportunity to use them until now...

I stamped these two cuties and colored them with my copic markers.

I love to add the sentiment in a splash of color, and still keeping the card clean and simple.

Addicted to CAS - Apples

Another beautiful week gone by...where has the summer gone...it's already September.


We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this week is Apples.  A tricky challenge for me as I searched through all of my stamps and found only two apple stamps.  I've used one for this card...can you find it!!

Another sweet Stamping Bella stamp.  Just love these!

I simply colored this with my Copics and done.  Really a very quick and easy card.  My sentiment is from Lawn Fawn.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Black, White & One Color

We have another challenge starting today at Less is More.  This challenge is black, white and one color.  This is a bit of a challenge for me, since I like to use at least 3 colors on each of my projects...and this only allows for one...since black and white are normally there :)


Here's my take on the challenge...

I stamped my main image and colored it with copics.  I then used the die to give the card some interest.  I colored the various dots with copics, then used the inlaid die technique to put them back in the holes.

A pretty quick and simple card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Sketch

Such a beautiful week gone by and time for another challenge at Less is More.  Our theme for this week is a Sketch Challenge.  I love these challenges as it always pushes me to do something I would normally not.  Here's the sketch and below my take on the challenge...

Super quick and easy card.  I used this sweet little cake stamp from Reverse Confetti and quickly colored it with Copics.  I added some color to the main image by matting each square.  I then added a bit of dimension with foam tape and done!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Berries

Another week gone by...and another fun challenge starting over at Addicted to CAS!  Hope you can join us, our theme for this week is Berries!  I don't have a ton of options for this challenge...so I pulled out this cute stamp set and colored the cutest little guy!  Here's my take on the challenge...

I colored this little cutie pie with my copic markers.  Used this cute die cut from Your Next Stamp and used the inlaid die technique to add the main image to the card base.

Pretty simple!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

CAS on Friday - Butterflies

Another week gone by...and we have another challenge starting today at CAS on Friday.  Our theme for this challenge is Butterflies!  This is a bit difficult for me since I only have one butterfly stamp and need to come up with something creative.

Here's my take on the challenge...

I started by die cutting my sentiment as I like to use the inlaid die technique.

I then stamped my butterfly in several colors.  It was a bit empty so I added a few stars and dots.

I then added the "Hello"  above the die cut and done...pretty darn easy!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Masculine

Welcome to August...the year is already half over...wow...gotta start thinking about Christmas cards...but until then, we have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Our theme for this week is to create a Masculine card.  A bit tricky for me!  Here's my take on the challenge...

I stamped this fun little guy, then masked him off and added the balloons falling around him.

I wanted to add a little bit of interest to his cloths, so I added some dots to his shirt.  My husband picked the colors and I colored him with Copics.

I added the sentiment in the cloud bubble with white embossing powder.  Lots of fun coloring!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
