Happy Halloween Claudia!

Hello! I want to share a cute Halloween card that I made for my granddaughter, Claudia this year. 

The dies were all made using Frantic Stamper products and the little greeting is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes, a retired stamp set by Stampin' UP!

The awesome green card stock and matching envelope is called Key Lime by Gina K Designs.  The DP is from my paper stash.

Until next time...

TRICK OR TREAT

It's so hard to believe that Halloween is next month, where has this year gone?!?

This is one of the Halloween cards I've made for this year using a great Frantic Stamper die of a Giant Candy Corn (FRA-DIE-10270). This die would be perfect for also making a shaker card.

I also used the Spooky Spider die (FRA-DIE-09943) along with the Reverse Cut Halloween Words (FRA-DIE-10684). I'll have more Halloween and Autumn cards to share with you soon. 😊

Until next time...

POTTING BENCH

I forgot to post this card that I made a couple of months ago. I just love these dies and they were really fun to work with.

The main focus is a die set called Wooden Potting Bench by Frantic Stamper (FRA-DIE-09834). I also used Gardening Tools (FRA-DIE-09821) and Bouquet Builder (FRA-DIE-10983). The paper was from my misc paper scrap bins.

Until next time...

FIREFLIES

Hello everyone! I'm here today to share with you the card I made for August in StarStampz.  This delightful image is called Fireflies and can be found in their Etsy shop here!

A fond memory of mine growing up was to be out in the evening with my brothers and sisters catching these wonderful little bugs and putting them into a jar and watch them all light up. No harm was done to them and they were soon released from the jar back to the grasses where found. ☺ StarStampz has a monthly challenge that you can join here! This month is challenge #49, Using your favorite color combination. (mine is orange and yellow)

Until next time...

AN OCEAN BREEZE...

I wanted to share this beach card that I made.  Living on the East Coast we really enjoy the beaches during our short summer season.

I used various Copics and Zig markers for the coloring, along with blending brushes, Sea Glass Gina K Designs ink and a white opaque marker.

The card stock is Blue Raspberry by Gina K Designs and a piece of DP from my stash for the sand. The clouds were made using Frantic Stampers Slimline Clouds Stencil (FRA-STN-015). The beautiful raised palm trees is a Frantic Stamper die called Palm Tree Edger (FRA-DIE-10457) and the sentiment and seagulls are from a clear stamp set called Ocean Lighthouse (FRA-CL-136).

Until next time...

FRIENDS

Just wanted to quickly post this card that I'd made earlier and didn't get around to posting it. I made several of these for friends and used different colored card stock for the backgrounds. They made great thinking of you cards just to keep in touch.

The die I used is called Good Friends Daisy Frame and is made by Frantic Stamper (FRA-DIE-09427).

Until next time...
