Popping in

 Hey Friends!!

I am just popping in with a quick card to make the deadline for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. 

I had a lot of fun yesterday with some Distress Sprays. I did a bit of smooshing and then layered some Distress Oxide Spray and Distress Mica Spray to create my orange leaf. I used this in lieu of a tag from the sketch.

I LOVE how it came out!! I then die cut a pumpkin out of cream cardstock and used Antique Linen Distress Ink to shade the pumpkin in to make it look a bit more realistic

I dug out pattern paper and then layered everything together. The sentiment is from Concord and 9th. In the photos it is a bit off but I fixed it after. I just didn't have time to take new photos. 

The sketch that inspired my card is below:

That is all from me today. Thanks for taking the time to stop by!! Have a FABULOUS day!

Hello Crafty Friends!!

There is still time to play with Cupcake Inspiration Challenges #350-Halloween Theme.

I have to be honest, though I like Halloween, I never really enjoyed making cards for it...until this year. It has given me a chance to GET MESSY!!! 

Can you see what I mean? Again, I did not use the Cupcake Inspiration Badge per se as the inspiration for my card but more the colors from the badge.

I started off this card by blending the background with Distress Ink in *Carved Pumpkin, Wild Honey and *Dusty Concord. I then used the Tim Holt *Script Layering Stencil over the top with *Black Soot. I also blended some Black Soot around the edges of the card front.

I then used Tim Holtz Bubbling Cauldron, Hocus Pocus, and Empty Tomb Distress Mica Spray, flicking it over the top to get my large droplets as you see. I cannot tell you how OBSESSED with this stuff I am!! While this dried, I die cut my yellow circle and blended some *Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink over the top.

I stamped the sentiment using Sugar Pea Designs Fang-Tastic stamp set and die cut my bats from black glitter paper using dies from Impression Obsession. 

I die cut my card front and layered it onto a top folding A2 card base, as shown. I used foam adhesive to "pop" the moon up and adhered the bats to my card and was finished!! I cannot tell you how happy this card makes me feel!!!

Well, that is all from me today. Please hop on over to the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge and play with us this week!! We are also teaming up with the Double Trouble Challenges this time. Please put your cards with the following rules:

I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by today. Have a FABULOUS day!!
