A Halloween card for Daisy Doodles...

Good morning everyone in blog land... It is soooo hot here today. I am sweating already. I wish fall would arrive soon. I hate this above normal temps each day!!! I know when the snow hits that I will be wishing it were warm again...but that is what they mean about a women changes her mind!!!!

Anywho... I did this card for a challenge at Cardmakers. It is being hosted by Laura. It is a sketch challenge and it was a pretty easy but great sketch this week. I used my new very cute images from Daisy Doodles shop. You need to go pay Jules a visit and see all the darling new images she has added. I love all of the new Halloween ones, so I did my card around them...

I hope you like...

It's hard to see but I used some cute embellies for the ghosts and bats. I loved the paper so I tried to use as much as the sketch would allow. Cut out the witch and added her to the embossed spider web CS. Used my new large scollop edge die from Papertrey... So ribbon from my stash and thats it!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by...

A card for a friend...

Hi all, I haven't been around to much lately. I am in the middle of moving STILL!!! I hope to be finally settled by Sept 11th. I am soooo tired of the mess. Living out of boxes, not knowing where you put anything...YIKES!!!! I did get to make a couple of cards today. I decided to just open a few boxes and treat myself. I wanted to make a card for a dear friend that I have on the Cardmakers site. We have been friends for 2 years now... Her father passed away this week and I wanted to send her something a little bit soft and cheerful.
My heart and prayers go out to her and her family...

Thanks for stopping by and come back soon,

Designed 2 Delight Snowman

Good morning...
I finally had a few minutes to make a card with this darling snowman image from Designed 2 Delight. You can get this in Faith's store. She has the most wonderful images. I hope you will stop by and get one for your own. Between boxing up my craft room ( I already miss all my stuff ), and getting ready for our move...I haven't had much time....

I colored my guy with Copics and Tria markers I cut him out with my label 11 spellbinders die, then chalked around the edges to give it a little bit more depth, I cut another one in red and placed it behind it. The sentiment I did on the computer. The border die is from Fiskars, snow flakes are MS. I added rhinestones, lace and taffeta ribbon from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by,
