Hello and welcome.  Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're being sponsored by Varada Sharma.  I would like to thank Varada for her sponsorship of this week's challenge.  My card today is featuring Varada's Hot Air Balloons digital set.  

 

After printing the image onto Hammermill white card stock, I colored it using Ohuhu markers before stippling some tumbled glass distress ink then layering and adding some faux brads.  Once I adhered the colored image panel to my card, I pulled out a long retired Stampin Up set called Warm Wishes and added the "celebrate" to the bottom of the card.  The only embellishments added were then some tiny bling gems to finish it off.  I'm really happy with how this turned out.

A Wanted Halloween

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a couple of cards I made for Halloween using images from Conjurer of Dreams.  I've had these cards finished for a few days, just not photographed or blogged due to my health.  

 

First up, is a cute little friendly robot card.  I started out by combining the following COD images using Photoshop©:  Cute Halloween Robots, You're Driving Me Batty, Halloween Quotes, Photo Corners, Black Silk, Aged Papers and a COD Inspiration Group freebie background from last year.  Once everything was combined and printed onto Neenah card stock, I added some faux brads before layering it on some black scrap card stock I had on my desk from a previous project.  After adhering to my card base, I added a black ribbon, some spider sequins and some bling to finish it off. 

 

Challenges entered:

 

Cardz 4 Guyz #379 - Use Orange/Black/Purple + One More (used tan/brown, made for the little guys)

Everybody Art Challenge #587 - Orange/Black and/or Halloween (Halloween) 

Shopping Our Stash #559 - Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice (friendly pumpkin robot)

 

My second card uses one of the Halloween Mug Shots combined with the Halloween Photo Corners and the Wanted Poster.  After printing the witch image, I colored her using Ohuhu markers and a white gel pen before layering and adding brads.  The final touches were sequin spiders and some black bling.  I'm really happy with how both of these turned out.

Autumn's Beauty

 

Hello and welcome.  Third post today, so I'd like to share with you a card made using images from Conjurer of Dreams.   All of the images were combined using Photoshop© so I could just print and add to an orange card.  With the way I've been hurting the last few days, the simpler is better right now.  I used the following COD sets:  Steampunk Gnome, Fall Silk, Wood Bark Background, Photo Corners, Fall Gnomes (from a special set I won), Fall Background, and Creepy Scarecrow were freebies in the Conjurer of Dreams Inspiration Group.  I'm really happy with how this turned out.

A Frightfully Good Halloween

 

Hello and welcome.  Second post today so if you're looking for my puppies birthday card, please scroll down one.  Thank you.

 

I'd like to share with you a Halloween card, plus ATC, made using images from Conjurer of Dreams images. I liked how the card turned out so I made an ATC to go with it.  I originally started out by combining the following COD sets using Photoshop©: Victorian Graveyard, Victorian Dancing Ghosts, Edwardian Bride & Groom Ghosts, Funny Gravestones, You're Driving Me Batty clip art, Aged Papers and Halloween Photo Corners, plus my saying before printing onto Neenah white card stock.  Once I had everything printed out, I layered onto some navy/black card stock before distressing the edges, adding brads and setting aside.  I then stenciled a spiderweb background on my card base using Tim Holtz picket fence distress ink before adding my graveyard panel using some pop up glue dots.  The only embellishments added was some spider sequins for the corners, crinkle ribbon I found in my stash and tiny gemstones for stars.

For the accompanying ATC, I printed the same image (only smaller) then layered using the scraps from my card. Made a small bow using the scraps from my card, added the spider sequins and gems like before to finish it off.  I'm pretty happy with how these turned out.

Someone Say Cake?

 

 

Hello and welcome.  I've not been around blogland much the last couple weeks.  Between my husbands, and mine, health issues, neither one of us has been having fun.  I finally got this card finished using one of the new release sets from Gerda Steiner Designs called Peeking Over Puppies.  These little guys are just adorable.  They're stamped in memento tuxedo black ink on Hammermill white card stock then colored using my new Ohuhu markers before fussy cutting out then setting aside.  I then created my background using a slimline cloud stencil and some stormy sky distress ink.  After layering, and adding some photo corners from my stash, I glue a few copper gems on to finish it off.

Hello and welcome. Today begins a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're sponsored by Sheepski Designs.  I would like to thank Andrea for her sponsorship.  

 

I printed the image, Resting Santa, on Neenah white card stock before coloring it using Castle Arts pencils and a blender pencil.  I then blended some leftover Tim Holtz tumbled glass distress ink around my colored image before adding a small bow and some bling.

Catching Up

 

Hello and welcome.  I have a couple of projects today that have been finished, just waiting to be photographed, on my desk for a couple of weeks using images from Conjurer of Dreams.  

 

First up is an ATC using the Autumn Squirrel set.  I combined it with the Fall and Black Silks, plus adding the saying, in Photoshop© before printing on Neenah white card stock.  I then layered the main image panel onto red/brown scraps before punching several leaves/pumpkin/flower from scraps to add.  After adding some brads and bling, my ATC was finished.

Just Us Girls #797 - See Mood Board Below (inspired by fall leaves, colors)

 

 

Next up is a card made using last month's Conjurer of Dreams tag challenge image that I didn't get finished until this week.  I layered the finished tag onto the Fall Leaves and Black Silk backgrounds before adding some flower sequins to the corners.  I then added some silk leaves I've had for years behind the tag and adhered the whole thing to a card with the Fall Leaves background.  The final touches was adding some leaf sequins, bling and punched leaves from scraps of card stock.
