Scary Halloween Tree

Happy Halloween!  I don't make many Halloween cards but I really liked this paper by DCWV called Bewitched.  There are several images that don't need much added to create a card and this tree was one of them.  I created the spider web from black card stock and an EK Success Spider Web Border Punch and then spritzed the border with frost white shimmer mist.  The spider was stamped with versa mark ink, embossed with black embossing powder, cut out and adhered to the card front using a dimensional.
 



Supplies Used:
Stamps:  From the Crypt
Paper:  Black, Eggplant Envy, DCWV Bewitched Mat Pack
Ink:  Versa Mark
Accessories:  EK Success Spider Web Border Punch, Silver Cord, Black Embossing Powder, Frost White Shimmer Mist, Dimensionals

Sparkling Notes

HYCCT1324 - Keep It Under Wraps - Challenge: Make a decorated (altered) notepad of any kind that can be used by the patients to jot notes, keep address of new friends, journal of their journey, etc. Since this is Breast Cancer Awareness month, please put at least a spot of pink on it.

I didn't do much altering to this notepad.  Since the cover was already a sparkly pink, I added the foam letters (adhered with crystal effects) and the various pieces of ribbon. 



Supplies Used:
Accessories:  $1 Spot Notepad (Darice), Foam Letters, Various Ribbons, Crystal Effects

Bambi for the Baby

HYCCT1323 - Impossible Things Happen - Challenge: Make a card inspired by a fairy tale.

I chose the fairy tale "Bambi" because this little deer stamp reminds me of him. 




Supplies Used:
Stamps:  Forest Friends, Best Yet
Paper:  Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze, Parisian Breeze DSP
Ink:  Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze
Accessories:  Bitty Banner Framelits, Dimensionals
