Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps - Frightfully Spooky Halloween

Hi Everybody,

I love Halloween and the latest Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamp release added to my beloved stash of Halloween stamps. The new stamps are simply delightful!

My stamp supplies:

I started out with a white base card. Planned out where the cat and bug would be and masked off the area of the face. Sponged first the yellow and worked my way up with orange and purple distress inks. Used a cloud stencil. Sponged the bottom with brown and olive green. Added the cat, bug and bats and heat embossed them. I also heat embossed the sentiment. By mistake I grabbed the white for the top part.....I decided it's okay and left it that way..... Colored in the eyes of the cat and bug with markers. In the end I added some ancient ant stickers from my stash. In retrospect it would have been easier to stamp the critters first and heat emboss them and then sponge.... next time, I guess....

Happy Stamping!

Love that cat and that you included creepy crawlies in your scene but, to me, that background is drop-dead, eerily gorgeous. Super spooky.

Easter Egg and Bunny

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... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. 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.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping. This event is going on for the ENTIRE MONTH! We are demonstrating the Mirror Image Stamp which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the Mirror Image Stamp . In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the Mirror Image Stamp on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The mirror image stamp is a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
