Cheeky color challenge!

This is for TGF's FFF: color challenge!
She is definitely one of my favorite stamps!
I made the card basically the same as the last post...with some different details!
I love this color combo, so it was easy!

Thanks for looking!

Sweet and Pink!


She is so cute to me!
I made handmade roses, used brown thread to
stitch everything but otherwise kept it pretty simple!
It's for TGF's FFF: color challenge!

Layered Haunted House!

Lots of layers and distressing make this the perfect Halloween decoration!
I made this for a card swap! 3 layers of dimensionals make up the haunted house!
I used my new die from PTI for the flower and the modern label punch for the tag!
I used plastic netting stapled on the card for the background!


I am entering this in Simon Says Challenge blog: punch-em!

Autumn time

I love this new Anya Lounge set!
I just thought it would make the best
Autumn scrapbook page
for the Greeting Farm newsletter challenge!
(I went simple...I usually do, but moreso when I
have to stuff the page in a sheet protector!)


I distressed the edges, and used prismacolors
with mineral spirits to color the girls!

It's beginning to look a lot like...

Christmas!
I am getting excited...but more than that...
I usually run out of time to make awesome
tags for my family presents!
So I started EARLY!
I was excited to ink up the Xmas Sweeties
stamps and make these!

I used Jen's tutorial on Prismacolors
and mineral spirits!
I definitely need some practice,
but I love the technique!Thanks for looking!

Card making blitz!

My husband worked late tonight...so I
stayed up way past bedtime and made cards!
I am so stoked I won (tied) the last
Lil' Lolita Challenge!
I just had to use the 3 new digi's I got!
Thanks Kellie!
These three are based off the new sketch challenge!



I made them very simple!
Just a couple papers, some distressing,
an embellishment or two!
I did some stitching on the first...then my son went to bed
(he bunks with my sewing machine!)
I think these will be great
to pull out for a quick card!

Thanks for looking!

Back in the game!!!

After missing a couple days of the
12 days of Halloween, I am back!
I bet you missed me! Hee hee!

Challenge today is to use Jack Skellington!
I just happened to aquire a few of these little
polymer Jack heads! I love them!
The perfect touch for a Halloween card!
And I love this Pumpkin London digi...
I wish she was rubber! (sniff sniff)


I went with layers of papers,
embossed spider webs, black netting,
brads and some distressing!
And the crown jewel in a spooky flower!

Thanks for looking!

The Witch is in!!!

This is for the Lil Lolita challenge #18:

I love it so much! I thought I would use it
as a Halloween decoration rather
than sending it as a card!

Lots of paper layers, some lace, tulle
flower, and the icing on the cake:
little witchy Barbie shoes!


Thanks for looking!

Spooky and spooktacular!

Altered 3D Halloween project!
(this is for the Greeting Farm's newsletter only challenge)
I cut the letters out of pine last year, but wasn't sure what to do with them!
I decopauged some Halloween papers on them, sanded them up a bit and then...
used these little spooktacular digi's to decorate!

Each digi is paper pieced and then embossed
and cracked for durability and looks!

This is definitely my favorite Halloween
decoration so far this year!!!

They are proudly displayed in my window sill now!

Thanks for looking!

Eye Spy Oliver!!!

For The Greeting Farm challenge!
This one is geared towards little guys!
Eye spy Oliver!

It's basically a huge shaker card with lots of hidden treasures!
Great for taking to church or the doctor's office!
And when the cover doesn't thrill them, they can draw or write!
My 3rd grade son loves this!

Shaken up or standing up!
Lots of fun playing my favorite game!
Thanks for looking!
