Happy Halloween and more...

Hello Crafty Friends.

The DRS Designs' Eyes for You Greeting is one of my favorites - especially for Halloween and fantasy cards.  I used it on this really fun dragon eye that I sketched with a Sharpie marker and then inked and water colored.

   

Hi Everyone,

I don't use the Stained-Glass stamps near enough.  They really elevate a stamp that has been used many times, into something new!  I stamped the Fall Leaf with Acorn inside the Small Stained-Glass stamp, but there are various sizes of stained-glass stamps to choose from.

I colored up the leaf and acorn and then did a gradient coloring on the stained glass portion.  For the background I used a fall leaf embossing folder and the Open Leaf stamp that I colored up to match. 

The new You Make Friendsgiving Special Greeting (235E) was the perfect pairing for the images.  

Thanks for stopping by!

• For my card I die cut this fun textured paper with a retired liquid drip die cut from Riley and Co.
• Next, I added red ink to the top line and the SCARY word on the SO SPOOKY IT'S SCARY HALLOWEEN GREETING and stamped that part.
• I then added black ink to the So Spooky it's in the greeting and stamped portion.
• Once stamped I die cut the greeting and colored the skulls with copics.
• I then popped the greeting up on dimensionals and used the cut outs from the drip die cut to finish the sentiment panel.

   

 Hello friends!

Today I have a good o' cowboy card to share.

I used DRS: Cowboy Line Dancer, Cow Cutie (inside), and Saddle Up Birthday. 

I used an embossing folder, letterpress style, that looks like tooled leather on the front of the card and on the inside as well.  I thought it was fun to make a belt from ribbon and use a copper buckle as an embellishment.
