SFYTT Time....

Yes....I'm squeaking in at the last minute again.....
but with a card that allowed me to put some ink
to a brand new Rubber Cafe stamp....love the
little skeleton I used on this card:

I also used the new MME Lost and Found
Halloween collection, AC ribbon, MS web
punch, and Black Soot Ink.

It was made using the SFYTT here:

Remember you can find the sketch HERE,
and play along every month!!

Thanks for stopping by....hope you take
the time for some inky fun today!!

Spooktacular Contest....

Over at the MME blog (find them HERE)
their monthly challenge for September is
to be inspired by "Project Runway"....and
create a LO, and then to make a card
inspired by that LO.

Here is my take on the challenge:

I used the new MME Lost and Found Halloween collection!
The papers are gorgeous....and I also used the chipboard
elements and punch out sheet from this collection.

A little better close-up of the LO:


And then the card:

You can see the inspiration of the glittery pumpkin, the banners,
the black stripe paper around the focal point, the music paper
peeking from behind, and the distressing, inking and touch of
staples and Halloween Trendy Twine.

Had fun creating for the contest.....and if you'd like to play,
remember to check out MME's blog!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Friday Friends With Flair

Time for the "Friends With Flair" over at Unity!  I have a
card using some of my Unity KOTM stamps.....



the sweet little jar, the hearts in the jar, and the sentiment
"Made With Love" (which was embossed with WOW
embossing powder).  The chicken wire was stamped too,
(not Unity tho!) and finishing touches are Hug Snug seam
binding, twine, rhinestones (recollections), the rooster
paper is Recollections (from Mikes) and the punch is
Martha Stewart.  Inks used.....black soot, festive berries,
and versamark for embossing.

Thanks for stopping by to say "hi"!!!  Looking forward to
seeing all the goodies everyone posts this week!!
