Wicked Cool


This card features the Wicked Cool set on page 23 of the main catalog.
This set is sooooo easy to use and makes cute cards with minimal effort.

In this example, the shoe image is colored with markers, to enable the
color contrast.  Spooky is then stamped with Old Olive.

The Pumpkin card base was run through the Big Shot, with the Holiday Mini
Spider Web embossing folder.  Rhinestone bling was added to the 
web and witch shoes.

Lastly, the wide ribbon was gathered with a sparkle brad from the
new Holiday Mini.  Bling and Halloween look good together!

Every Moment Wasabi Saffron


WOW!  Where has the week gone!  I went back to work this week,
so that might be it. Here's another Every Moment card. 
Had to do a "yellow" card in honor of my burned lawn. 

The sentiment is from the Fabulous Phrases set.
The colors are So Saffron, Real Red and Wild Wasabi with
an aqua painter used to color in the flower
(outlined with gray watercolor pencil).

The Elegant Lines Big Shot folder was used to add texture to the 
Wild Wasabi layer.  Pearls were added "just for fun"!  The pearls work
really well when used in conjunction with vanilla or watercolor paper.

Owl Punch T-Shirt


Thought that I'd change things up from watercoloring.

This little owl punch is just the cutest thing.  For this project, 
I paired the punch owl with the Smarty Pants set to make
a T-shirt card.   The owl works back to the branch from the 2 Step Bird punch.
The neckline and arm holes are made with circle punches.

The colors for this project are Crumb Cake, Wild Wasabi, Marina Mist, 
Early Espresso and the Marina Mist DSP from the Subtles Paper Pack.

I hope that you enjoy this little guy.
