Pumpkin Time

 
Hi!  Heres another fall card using the cute images I found over at Whimsie Doodles site...I wanted to give the effect that she was sitting on the pumpkin so I ended up printing the digi image twice so I could cut just the legs and put dimensionals behind them as well as the small pumpkins in front of the punched out fence....A bit of jute ties up in a bow for texture...Thanks for stopping by today! Have a great week!

Trick or Treat Fun...

Happy Thursday!  I just love making Halloween cards...The colors are so much fun to work with...I found this cute digi image over at Whimsy Doodles site...They have some great Halloween digis to chose from...On this card I ended up cutting out the whole image and putting her against a black background which then needed a moon so I punched one out with my circle punch and then added a black bat (also a punch).  I thought some stars in the sky would be fun so I found these sticker stars by Recollections a bit of ribbon and then for the last touch I stamped out the trick or treat and cut it out...I have had this paper for a long time and finally put it to use!...

Sending a Happy Halloween

During the spring I made a card with the same idea but used butterflies instead...On this one I went with a Halloween theme and added some googly eyes to these cute punched out bats...Then positioned them as if they were flying out of the envelope....For texture I added an embossed panel and tied off the envelope with a little ribbon with the sentiment "Happy Halloween"....I had fun making this one!!

Hedgie with Flowers...

Hello!  Well it looks like summer is on the way out and fall is on the way in!  Which here in Florida means its going to be hot for a while longer...But its fun to get ready for fall anyway...I thought the orange and green would be good choices for this card since theres alot of that in the stores right now...Theres a challenge over at SCS and this is the sketch they are using for today...Takes the thinking out of the layout...And I am layout challenged for sure!  The hedge hog and some of the flowers and the butterfly were cut out and popped up for dimension...Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you are all doing great!!

Summer Fun...

 
Hello!  I hope this post finds you doing well on this summer day...Its been too long since my last post!  I wanted to share with you this cute image from Whimsy Doodles...Isnt she cute?  Its a digi image so you can size her any way you want and on this card I printed her twice so I could cut out and pop up the life preserver and added some white jute for fun...I thought the red, white and blue colors fit best and then I added some stars for a last touch...Thanks so much for stopping by today...
Have a great week!

Spring Has Sprung!

Spring has sprung!  Well at least it has on this card...I originally wanted to make a tiny envelope on this using a template till I ran across this mini envelope that was bigger but it ended up working best with this butterfly punch I used...I used my ribbon to chose the colors I would use for my butterflies...I then arranged them as if they were flying out of the envelope and tiny pearls were added to the centers...You could use just the tiny butterflies on a smaller envelope and maybe print out a message to slide inside partially sticking out like "Happy Birthday" just for fun...Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Special thanks to Lori Hamilton for being the Guest Designer last week!
