9/16/24 - Atlantic Hearts Sketch #595 - Playful Ghosts Happy Halloween

Happy Monday and today at Atlantic Hearts Sketch I created a Halloween card using the sketch. It’s so hard to believe that we are in October already! I use the cute dracula image and stamped it on a block with ink and spray with water to create a background. Added a simple sentiment and an embossed cardstock to givee it more interests and textures. I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

9/15/2024 - Sparkles Challenge #180 - Fall/Autumn Card with Frosted Forest Mask

Welcome back to another monthly challenge at Sparkle and this month we are making Fall/Autumn card! I purchashed the Froested Forest Decorative Mask without the bundle and hoping to make some quick and easy card just using the ink pads! I picked the colors that represent the fall color palletes and it turns out really awesome! I added pumpkin DSP and a ribbon to keep it simple. I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

Welcome back to Cardz 4 Galz and this week I am the hostess for the Coloring challenge! I always like coloring since I was a little girls so now I can combine card-making with coloring, why not! For this Halloween card, I used Stampin’ Blends to coloring the images (pumpkins) and a fun sentiment – Boo, like the ghost is popping out of the pumpkin, cute right?! I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

9/6/24 - My Time To Craft #542 Trees - Frosted Forest Mask Happy Birthday

Happy Friday and welcome back to another bi-weekly challenge here at My Time to Craft and this week we are adding some textures onto our cards! Defintion of textures can be different from person to person but for me, it’s 1) using embossing folder and 2) using emblishement (ribbon or dots) and that’s exactly what I did on my card! I used one of the newer base colors from Stampin’ Up – Basie Beige! I also use the DSP from Iconic Celebration from Online Exculsive! I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

9/5/24 - Cardz 4 Galz #233 Squre - Birthday Wishes with Mediterranean Blooms

Happy Thursday and welcome back to our first challenge of the month at Cardz 4 Galz and this week we are making Squre card. Instead of doing a Square size card, I decided to just use the square elements on mine. I saw a cute sample on Pinterest (which it’s been so popular) and I wanted to give it a try. Each smaller square is 1 ¼” x 1 ¼” and the layering piece is 4” x 5 ¼”. The birthday greeting piece is die cut out with but you can always do a manual layering piece for 2 ½” x 2 ½”. The orange image is cut out from the designer paper as well as those smaller pieces. Since I didn’t get the coordinating stamp bundle with this paper, this is a great way to showcase and use the DSP. Hope I give you some inspiration on this challenge and be sure to join us!

9/4/24 - The Male Room #190 Fun Folds - Latte Love

Happy Hump Day and welcome back to another monthly challenge here at The Male Room and we are making Fun Fold Cards! I saw a diagonal fold from Meg Loven and decided to give it a try. You will have to score a full sheet of cardstock in half on both end (which is 4 ¼” and 5 ½”) and then cut from end to end to create this. For some reason I couldn’t get my cardstock to fit in my trimmer so I used an exacto knife for this. The DSP is 4” x 5 ¼” and then cut in half and then you can decorate as you prefer. I used the Latte Love bundle for this. The coffee mug is stamp, colored and die cut out. The French press is just with cardstock. Hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.
