Today I am working on another Halloween card. I like to send these to the kids at church and see their happy smiles.  This is a supper cute card made with the Happy Hauntings Cricut cartridge.  I also used some DCWV paper I got at Michael’s this year.  I think it turned out super cute, Thanks for stopping by.  I have been doing this blog for several years and only recently started more frequent post.  I hope to reach 20 followers and when I do I have some give a-ways, come back and see me soon.     Hope you like this and come again soon to see what I am working on.

I found this cute digital image in my library, I don’t know where it came from. But it is so cute and just made me think of Halloween and fall.  I had these cute leaves in a draw loose, and thought they added a nice touch to the card. I used Prismacolor markers and gelly roll pens for coloring the image.  I love the cooler days and this morning I was able to enjoy my coffee on the porch, God knows we need this rain. I checked the gage this afternoon and we got .70 here in north Texas.  Thanks for stopping by.  Sorry the photo is a little crooked.  Hope you like this and come again soon to see what I am working on.

Today I am down in my back so I chose a quick and easy fall card. I got this cute digital print from Meljens design blog (her site is the first one listed below) and colored it with promarkers then used glitter gel pens for the leaves, super cute.   I used a spellbinder shape cut for the background and then attached some lovely leaf ribbon. I mounted everything on craft paper.   Hope you like this and come again soon to see what I am working on.

Today I have been working on some wonderful Halloween card. These are from the Cricut paper doll dress up cartridge. I saw this twisted easel card made on the Cards TV website and had to make it. You can find it here http://cardztv.blogspot.com/2013/09/fun-card-folds-5-have-you-been-booed.html.   It didn’t last one day in my for sale stack, I need to make more. I modeled the little girl after my granddaughter, she always has to be some kind of princess. I cut the hair out of white and then colored it with stamp-n up ink.     Hope you like this and come again soon to see what I am working on.

Today I have been working on a beautiful Christmas card. I purchased this digital stamp from Tiddly Inks several years ago. The great thing about digital is that you can make them any size you need, and it will never tear or not ink up right even after years of use, and storage is never a problem.   I colored the dress red with promarkers and then added flocking powder to all the areas that I thought looked like fur, Very nice.   I then used a spellbinder die to cut it out. The background paper is from my stash.   Hope you like this and come again soon to see what I am working on.

Today I have been working with my Silhouette making a fall card.  I found this cut in the design store, super cute. I like the happy smiles on the pumpkins...not scary, and the wonderful vine. All the paper is from a DCWV neutrals stack, I have had this for a long time. I didn't use and background paper because I wanted to make the focus of the card the pumpkins.  I used my sketch pens on the label and a font called darkwood, I got it from dafont.com.  Lots of great fonts and dingbats here for free. I think it turned out nice, thanks for stopping by. Hope you enjoyed this card and will come again soon. Have a great Wednesday, don't forget to attend you local Church service.
