Spooky scene

     It's time for another PINspirational Challenge. Today we have a seasonal challenge, so bring out the ghosts and goblins.The sponsor for this challenge is The Cutting Cafe. To enter the random draw for a prize from Cutting Cafe, just make a project inspired by the inspiration photo (to the right, here.)

     For my card, I chose this amazing image by Impression-Obsession. I mean, it's a cat-mummy-witch flying by a full moon -- what else could you ask for on Halloween? The image is covered in pencils and fussy cut. It's on a piece of sparkly dark blue paper on which I splattered some clear Wink of Stella for more starry action.  There's also Wink of Stella on the stars. The adhesive bat was already glittery, I didn't have to amp that up at all.
     The stentiment is a sticker, which has been in my stash for a while. It has quite a realistic look of twill and eyelets.

Leaf time

      At last.  It's almost the middle of October, and finally, it looks like fall is going to sneak into the Southeast. I can't wait.
       Luckily, this new challenge at PINspirational Challenge has a fall theme, so I could at least dream about fall while making a card.  This challenge is being sponsored by the ever-popular My Besties shop, which will provide three free digis to the winner.  To enter the random draw, all you need to do is make a card inspired by the image and link it up at the challenge blog.
       My card features a gorgeous die-cut leaf. (Does anyone know who makes that die? The die-cut was sent to me and I couldn't find anything online showing who made the die). The sentiment is from Purple Onion, stamped in Amber Clay chalk ink. The ribbon is two-sided and perfect for fall.

This card is entered into these challenges:
Creative Inspirations -- Autumn Glow
Ribbon Girl -- anything goes
Cookie Challenge #104 -- fall
Catch the Bug -- anything goes
Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge -- use patterned paper
Word Art Wednesday # 354 -- anything goes


Red and gold Christmas

 I watched a video earlier this year that suggested you could use any flower on a Christmas card as long as you color it red. I don't ha...
