Blog Candy!

I just wanted to post and let you know about the fabulous blog candy Claudia Rosa is giving away. Check it out here!

Trick or Treat

Halloween is getting closer! I just wanted to share a card I made with Mo's Digital Pencil's "Trick or Treat". This is such a fabulous image for Halloween. I use Basic Grey's Erie collection for my design paper and SU Kiwi Kiss cardstock. The cobweb background was made with the Martha Stewart new corner and edger punches. I colored with my Copics and added Stickles to accent.
Doesn't Bronte look cute in her "kitty" costume?

Crafty Sentiments

I discovered a new stamp company, "Crafty Sentiments" on the Splitcoast Stampers website. They are having a design team call which ends today at 8 pm GMT. Here is one of my card creations I submitted, entitled "Fishing" from Mo's Digital Pencil:
This was a birthday card for my son who just celebrated his thirty-fourth birthday. I put more emphasis on my coloring than I did with embellishments, especially since this is a masculine card. I really like how the Copic colors I chose blended together with the design paper colors. The DP was from an autumn collection I purchased from Michael's.
Thanks for visiting!

Daisy

The weekends just pass by too fast. A very dear friend had a birthday celebration on Saturday. She is the person who introduced me to rubber stamping and scrapbooking so I would have a hobby when I retired. I chose a Sugar Nellie image, "Daisy" for my friend's birthday. This is such a reflective little girl designed by Elisabeth Bell. The design paper is from Basic Grey's "Lemonade" collection and the card stock is from Papertrey Ink. I also used Spellbinder's tulip pendant die and border die to showcase my image. Daisy was colored with Prismacolor pencils.
This image also reminds me that Summer is over again for the year. I love the Fall but always feel a little pang of regret leaving Summer behind. Thanks for visiting!
