Halloween at Topflight Stamps

   Hi Everyone,

It's Topflight Stamps day! 
This week it's anything goes, so I decided to pull out the spooky raven stamp from Crafty Individuals 


I first stamped the raven. Added the moon. Colored the raven. Masked the moon and used the blender brushes to color the background. I did not want to colors to be smooth. I wanted some variation in colors to mimic a cloudy sky. Added the grass from the Katzelkraft weed set and added some bats. Trimmed the card and mounted it onto black card stock.


I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. 
See you next week with more Topflight Stamps inspiration.

And here are the stamp supplies I used:

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.
