So Suzy Challenge September/October

Hi Everyone,

onto a new challenge at So Suzy and Crackerbox stamps. The theme is ALL HOLIDAYS

Had to go with Halloween, of course...

My So Suzy Stamps:

Bats flying by, Smiling Pumpkin, Dancing Skeleton, Bug Ian-fluenza, sentiment stamp (50% off)

I made the background with Distress Oxide Inks.

Stamped everything on it, except the smiling pumpkin, which I stamped on scrap paper, colored with Inktense and cut out. The skeleton I heat embossed in white and added black pen marks to give it a more realistic look. The sentiment I stamped in white and black with a little off-set to make it easier to read.

This challenge runs from the 15th of the month, until the 14th day of the following month. It has a theme, this month it is all holidays, that you need to follow, but you can use any brand of stamps. However, if you do use Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps you double your chances of winning a $25 gift card, which is awarded to a random winner and is announced on the following months challenge post on the 15th. Link up your project and link to the challenge. If you are using social media use the hastag #sosuzystampschallenge

This month promotions includes all Halloween and Fall stamps :

Happy Stamping!

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time...

The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes.... Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
