Spooky Wishes

Hello again,

I have a card here using another of my new PI girls.

I've used Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #192 for the layout. Another super fun sketch from Karen. I pulled out my box of washi tapes to use for the strips on the side and the bottom and my spider web EF for the background. She is stamped on X-Press It blending card stock with Memento tuxedo black and colored with a whole bunch of Copics. After cutting her out and mounting with dimensionals, I used yellow Stickles to make the pumpkin face on her shirt sparkle. If you look closely, there's a small orange rhinestone in the center of the bow in her hair.




For my sentiment, I stamped it on the smallest pumpkin from the Die-namics Primitive Pumpkin trio set and then placed a green pearl on the stem.

Here's the inside:


I used the Chevron Die-namics to cut out some black card stock to "match" the patterned papers on the front of the card. The inside greetings are stamped on some SU Pumpkin Pie card stock and attached with a strip of washi tape.

Supplies
Stamps: Pure Innocence Pretty Pumpkin set by My Favorite Things
Paper: TE dark gray, SU black, white and Pumpkin Pie card stock, X-Press It Blending card stock, American Crafts patterned paper
Ink: Memento tuxedo black and Copics
Other: Washi tapes, Die-namics Primitive Pumpkin Trio dies and Chevron dies, SU Spider Web EF, orange rhinestone and green pearl, Fiskars corner rounding punch, the Big Shot, and dimensionals

Have a great Wednesday and thanks for stopping by my blog,
Colleen

What's Mew?

Happy Monday afternoon all,

Yesterday I made a couple cards using new MFT Pure Innocence sets.  Using Jen's Deconstructed Sketch #117 layout and the Paper Player's color challenge by LeAnne, this is the first card. The challenge is to use Rich Razzleberry, Pool Party and Black. I colored my little kitty with Copics trying to match the Razzleberry and Pool Party colors.





Here is the inside. I kept it very, very simple.



Supplies
Kitty Costume set, Pure Innocence by My Favorite Things
Paper: SU Rich Razzleberry and Pool Party card stock, X-Press It Blending card stock, SU Rich Razzleberry DSP
Ink: memento tuxedo black, SU Rich Razzleberry and Copics
Other: SU black ribbon, Seeing Spots EF, corner rounder punch, Want-2-Scrap black pearl

Thanks for looking in today,
Colleen

Hand-Crafted Treats - Mojo 309

Hello,

I received some new stamp sets last week and boy, I've been having fun with them. I ordered all three sets of the Well Preserved Jars sets from Clear and Simple, and their coordinating dies. They are so cute. I've been making some super cute jar tags over the last few days. (I'll post those later in the week hopefully.) This morning I wanted to make a card for the Mojo Monday sketch and decided to use the medium jar set for this card.


Supplies
Stamps: Well Preserved Jars - Medium set by Clear and Simple Stamps
Paper: SU whisper white card stock and Lucky Charm by American Crafts patterned papers
Ink: Memento tuxedo black, Memento LUXE Olive Grove, SU Crisp Cantaloupe
Other: classic circle and scalloped circle Nesties, Die-namics Fishtail Flags STAX dies, SU punches, Baker's twine, the Big Shot, and dimensionals

Thanks for looking in today,
Colleen
