Cosmo Cricket Goodness......

This is a LO for a challenge on the Cosmo Cricket web site! Ok, totally ran
out of time (kids home from school most of the week!...lol!) but I just had
to pop something out this evening.....had to use those great fall pics I took!
It turned out great! Simple.....but simply beautiful fall colors! To make it,
I mixed it up and used Cosmo's yummy paper and embellishments
from 3 different collections! Paper is from "Hello Sunshine", the journal
box (I distressed, inked and used a punch for the paper edge) from the
"Wonderland" collection, also used those fab tiny type alphas (love, love!!)
and last but definitely not least.....the awesome "Earth Love" ready set chipboard!!

This picture was the "inspiration":

I don't know why but the panes on the door just struck me.....sooooooo
I took pics of the leaves and mimicked the door in my LO. This LO is
just another reason to love fall!!! Happy fall y'all!!

More Halloween Goodies

Well would you believe.......I actually dusted off my brayer and got
inky with it??? Did the old resist stamping technique with my
versamark pad and some Close to My Heart orange ink. Yummy
candy corn stamp from Stamps of Life! No trick, this card is a treat!!
Ok, how corny is that......lol.

Where Did October Go??


I lost almost 2 weeks!! Yikes! I guess a 4 day crop and a kids birthday
party will do that to you....lol.

Here is another great Halloween idea.......the background on this card
reminds me of peeling wallpaper in a "spooky" mansion.....I "stamped"
it using the sides of a flashlight!! Use Tim Holtz peeled paint ink....and
it made for one spooktacular background! More to follow......

Sa-weeeeet!!


Had some fun playing with Cosmo Cricket today!
Wanted to finish off a quick card inspired by the
SSD sketch #45. Used their Garden Variety line
paper and chipboard for something different! Also
pulled out some new spellbinders dies......can't help
but enjoy playing with new toys!
