Special Card For My Aunt

   This card was request by my aunt in Northern Kentucky. She loves red cardinals. Special thanks to my friend Marcie who sent me the birds she punched out with her punch.  I have been MIA and not posted since Nov. 11th. I hope to get to make more cards after the Holidays.  I also used bling to make the red berries and the eyes of the bird. I purchased some flower soft in Polar White and used it to get the snow effect.  I used a sticker for the word Winter.  I hope it shows up.
I hope you enjoy the card and I love your comments.......

Vintage Halloween

I love Vintage photos.  I purchase this pad that has lots of Vintage Halloween pictures. I just had to use this one to make a card.  I love this pad and you will probably see more with Vintage photos.  The left side of the had has glitter along with the ball hanging from her hat.  Added a little bling and here it is. I love doing the inside of the card also.   The boarder was a MS punch and I put it on the inside so when you close the card you only see part of the border.Hope you enjoy and please leave a comment.

Paper Playtime Challenge #16 & CCC #42

This card is for a paper challenge #16 over at Paper Playtime.  I had this idea several days ago.  Another card has been entered also with the witches shoes.
Hers is different in allot of ways than mine. My fingers are sore. Their is 27 brads in these 3 pair of shoes. I have a thing that opens them but they were small and it would not fit between them. It was so much fun to do.  Good Luck to everyone. Hope you enjoy and please leave a comment........

Trick Or Treat


This is really my first stamp card with a design. I have used stamps before but only with words.  I colored this with a set of "BIC Mark It Permanent Markers" with a fine point. They come 24 in a plastic container. I got them at Walmart of course.  The stamp was ordered and I love the little girl. The paper was from DCVW "Midnight Spell" which has such pretty Halloween paper. The "Trick Or Treat" pumpkin is K & Co. Inside is beige paper on the orange and it has a witch sticker in the right bottom corner. This was really allot of fun to color. Hope you all enjoy the card.

Halloween Best Witches (My Version Of Marys Card)

Mary at Cardz TV made a card that was similar to this one. I cut these images out about 2 weeks ago and did this tent card and I had not posted it yet. So I went on Mary's blog and here was her card which is much more detailed. I was trying to use up scraps in the paper. Hope you enjoy my version of "Best Witches". I love this cartridge and I can understand why it is so hard to find right now. Enjoy.................................

Thanksgiving

My first Thanksgiving card. I saw this in a magazine and knew I had to make it. I copied the pattern on my computer and cut the pumpkin out and then the pieces. I used different colored paper on each piece.  This card is larger than the others.
I used olive, orange, pattern paper, beige cardstock.The sentiment came from the Cricut Lite Cartridge Celebrate With Flourish. The pumpkin was put on pop dots.  I love the colors and it was so much fun to make.
I hope you enjoy this card and please leave any comments. If you want this pattern please e-mail me. The e-mail is at the top of my blog.....

Whatchadoin? #2


I actually made this card first.  These were so much fun I am sure I will make them again.  I love the fishbowl.  Hope you enjoy.

Whatchadoin?


I saw this in a magazine and it was a stamp on the fishbowl. I don't buy stamps. I have a few.  I saw this on a Cricut cart. "Life Is A Beach" and ordered it.  I love these fish.  I have some scraps because I wanted it to be a certain way.  I think this card is one of my favorites.  Of course my cards never look like the picture in the magazine. Hope you like it.  I have another one I made that is just a little different which I will also post.

BOO!

I have wanted to make a card with a window. I went to the Internet and downloaded a window template and here it is. This card was so much fun.  The black paper was from a DCWV  paper pack which I thought I would never use.  The saying was from my computer and the font was "Chiller".  I was happy with the way it turned out and hope you like it. I just love this cartridge.

BOO!


This card was so much fun........ I love the black dot paper.  This cartridge has great words to use on your cards. Hope you enjoy.............
