Happy Halloween...

Good morning everyone, Happy Halloween to you all. Hope the sun is shinning where you are today. In devon it is bright and sunny but quite cold. Well enough with the weather outlook lol. This is a card I have made for my son to give to a little girl from his class. She is 8 today and she is having a birthday / Halloween party today. So I thought I would make her a spooky card! I have used stickles around the spider and on the little dog but it doesn't show in the pic.



Backing paper - Bazzill cardstock & Jeepers Creepers spiderweb from The Paper co.

Stamp set - Spooky spooky spooky. From Dies to die for. Seen this set on Natalie's Blog and decided I needed it!!! Your fault Natalie!! haha.

Glitter - Stickles

Letters cut with my Cricut machine using George and Basic shapes

This was coloured with Whisper pens.

Hope everyone has a great day

Pink Christmas Card

Thought I would try to make a card without using a rubber stamp. So instead I used the Die cut Christmas trees from Craftwork Cards. I cut the aperture with my Nestabilities and mounted some Acetate to the inside of the card. Sorry about the picture it is really dark here today and the flash keeps coming on and reflecting in the Acetate..

Christmas trees and Oval greetings- CWC

Ribbon - Dovecraft

Hope everyone is having a good day
