BOO

This little cutie is from the Charmkin Cutie Ghost candy set.

He's so sweet with his jack-o-lantern!

Candy apple ghost

This card I did a little different from my normal paper piecing.  I cut all of the pieces from a piece of Kraft colored paper then used my inks to color the images.

I like how the ghost actually looks more dimensional with the way the ink soaked into the paper.

You can find the cut file here

The card base is a file I found on the SIL store. It's just a spooky house.

I mounted the ghost on an action wobble, he wiggles SO much, I love it!

Got candy?

How fun is this card?

I love the shape of the sides, I need to use it more.

Trick or treat

I love this card!! It is SO simple and so cool at the same time!

I let my cameo draw the dots on her leggings and write the saying.

After adding some tiny gems and some cool decorative background paper, it's awesome!!

Stop and smell the pumpkins

Pumpkins Digital Stamp

Smell the Pumpkins Digital Stamp

This week's theme is Halloween.

These guys are among my favorites, they are so cheerful and look like they are having the best time!

I colored them with sharpies and then lightly sprayed the image with rubbing alcohol to lighten the colors.  I learned this technique by accident a while back, my original plan was to use the alcohol as a blender of sorts and it ruined my image.  So now I know what it does and I use it to sort of distress the coloring.  I like how it came out, makes the pumpkins look more rough, not so smooth.
I put the phrase inside, makes me laugh since everything is pumpkin spice right now...even Cheerios!! UGH!

This is my first treat bag I've made.  There was a contest in one of the groups I'm in and I actually managed to get it done first!  It's the same on both sides, my daughter said she will use it next year...nice right?  Her blue pumpkin that lights up is more exciting I guess. 

Happy Halloween

TRICK OR TREAT!!

I have several projects to share with you today.  Chills and Thrills aren't my strong suit, so my attempt at a witchy fairy house came out pretty sweet.

This is one of the Fairyville houses, specifically the Dragonfly Fairy house.

I made the little broom using a file from the SIL store.

It can be used as a gift box or a luminary. I put a color changing light inside and look how cute it looks glowing.

I made all 3 of the houses in this bundle, if you'd like to see them glowing, check out my video here.

My next 3 projects are a little more chill enducing I think.

These are files from the SIL store.

This is supposed to be a box, but I welded 2 jars together and made a shaped card.

I used a red marker to make some veins.

I was going for a cameo look with this card. I think she's pretty cool.

I added her man to this card below, who doesn't love a spooky love story.

Honestly what love story isn't' scary! lol

Pacific Time

Choo choo train

Have you checked out the shop lately?  There's a lot of new items that Lisa has added.

I used the Halloween train set this month. This is so cute!

I added some digital paper from my files and colored the image with pencils and blended with gamsol.

Frightful cards

I made these cards using recent freebies from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.

I combined 2 sets for the first card. Aren't these ghosts the cutest?

 I used my gel pen to color the labels.

This one is super cute too, shoot, all of the LSHD are super cute!

 I added a rhinestone svg file making it a colored digi element. I love how it looks.

Witchy trouble

 This is the challenge image this month from Simply Betty.

Isn't' she pretty? I like how she turned out, I tried to add some glow from her potion she's working on.

Mermaid bear

Today I'm using the adorable mermaid bear for a Trick or Treat card.

I used the bat and the Trick or Treat from the great Trick or Treat set

 I colored the image with colored pencils, layering several colors to achieve some depth.

Scrapbook pages

I've got 2 pages to share with you again today.

I have so much fun with Creative Kuts layouts.

 How cute are these bears?

This is one of the cutest ghosts I've ever seen!  He's so friendly and welcoming!

Halloween kitty

digi1805 Bat

digi3907 Happy Halloween

digi10201 Harvest Moon

digi21801 Pumpkin Kitty

I've used a lot of images today to create this fun card.

These are some of my favorites from the sister site, Eureka 

 I used my Tim Holtz ink to create the sky after printing my moon on the piece. I let my Cameo cut out the kitty and bats.

I'm adding this to the Show us your pussies challenge
