Witches Brew Halloween

I had purchased this paper to make some Halloween cards and was at the point for my swaps so I used the SFF081613 by Deb Currier for my inspiration.  I wanted more texture and depth so I added a few more layers to the card and the pieces. I am not really a Halloween person but liked this paper since it is not so gorish as some can be. Thanks SU.  I also added dimensional behind a piece of the word paper for more depth. Thanks for the very quick and simple sketch SFF gals. Was a fun card to do and no mess.

Supplies Used: 

No stamp sets

Paper: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Summer Starfruit, Very Vanilla, Witches Brew DSP

Accessories: Dimensionals

Happy Birthday to You

I made these cards for my daughter and her husband.  Their birthdays are only 1 week apart.  My daughter was born 35 years ago today and was the happiest day of my life when I now had a son and a daughter to hold and to love.  They have brought many things to my life to remember and cherish. Love them both a lot.

Stamps: Bloomin' Marvelous (top) and Cross My Heart (bottom)
Paper: Island Indigo, Tangerine Tango, Pool Party, Summer Starfruit, Sahara sand and Sycamore Street Designer Series Paper (all Stampin' Up)
Ink: Tangerine Tango and Island Indigo
Accessories: Bitty Butterfly punch, small pearls

The butterflies were stamped on the Sahara sand and also onto whisper white and then punched out and glued down only along the butterfly body for some dimension.

Sketch Friday Frenzie - SFF123011

This is the Sketch we were given on http://sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/ to play with.  I have been wanting to use this new stamp set and had a color challenge elsewhere to complete; therefore this is what I came up with.

The Colors to use for the Color Challenge were Going Gray, Whisper White and Tempting Turquoise which is a past color combination from SCS. I did not have going gray so used Basic Gray.

Stamps:Apothecary Art from Stampin' Up

Paper:  Basic Gray, Whisper White and Tempting Turquoise, DSP Twitterpated
