Christmas Card



May Arts and OWH Christmas Card Challenge

Here is my card for this challenge. Cosmo Cricket paper, still have this left over from who knows what year!? I used a Sizzix die Holly and Berries for the leaves. The sentiment is from PTI and the cardstock is Aqua Mist. I pulled out my Hero Arts ( Punch) inks to use since many of mine from PTI are just worn out. I know so many posts in one day...going to relax and watch DWTS.

Spooky Bats



Bats!!

I made this Bats for Halloween. This came from the Stampin Up blog "So Shelli". This my version. I used the Stampin Up petal cone die for base. The wings are made from a banner shaped die then punched with a 3/4 ths round hand punch. I embossed the paper with black sparkle embossing powder using versamark ink. The stamp is a Hero Arts large web background stamp. This really added some zip to these creatures. I placed some goolely eyes and made the fangs by using star punch. The paper is coredinations black/ yellow combination. Now I just have to decide on what tasty treat to fill them with...Yum.

Thanksgiving



Thanksgiving Cards

I made these for Card Club and for me to send out during November. I used the main wheat image from First Fruits (PTI), the sentiment is from Amuse. I was so pleased that they fit so well together. The ink is the Encore Gold. At first I thought the image would not stamp well but who knew that it stamped the details nicely.
