Let's Celebrate Halloweeen

After finishing my treat boxes in the last post, I kept looking at the inspiration photo from this week's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge and wanted to create a halloween shaker card using the fun Spooky sequins mix.

Here is my card:

I'm in love with this new Storybook Two Die from Pretty Pink Posh and as you can tell also in love with this cute little Darling Friends stamp set since the little critters are adorable! Once again, to create the frame, I took the smaller stitched rectangle from Blueprints 20 and placed the Storybook Two Die in the middle.

For the base stitched rectangle, I used Blueprints 15 along with elegant eggplant card stock from SU and for the frame: Let's Polka - Mon Amie paper from Lawn Fawn. I'm sure you recongnize the pumpkins and cat from the Witch Way Candy (MFT) set which is perfect for this occassion. Also, couldn't resist but to use the the Twine and Bows Die again.

When creating this card, I thought "let's celebrate and have some fun" so when I saw the sentiment from the Sparkle and Shine (SSS) set, I thought it would be perfect for this card. Than I pulled out the the word "Halloween" from the Essential Greetings (SSS) set which is awesome for so many occassions.

Can't forget this Spooky sequins mix containing not oly 4mm and 6mm sequin sizes, but some fun pumpkin sequins. After I finished, I couldn't resist but to keep shaking it up. 

As always, if you haven't checked out the challenge, please stop over to check out all the inspiration.

MFTWSC199 - Witch Way is the Candy ?

Finally back to making cards after a long time of not being able to use my right arm from a fall I had (broken), than I had to catch up on other projects for work and when I felt better I re-organized my craft area so I could see it again since I bought more goodies to play with which took a lot of time. Lots of organization which I will post soon. Thanks for letting me ramble, but now onto better things.

Wanted to join the weekly sketch card MFTWSC199 and than I saw Challenge 17 over at Always Playing with Paper for my inspiration on the color scheme but added some green, so I might try the sketch portion of the challenge since there is still time to join the fun.

Here is my card:

During my reorganization, I also took the Copic Online Card Class and absolutely loved it plus I learned so much and highly recommend it. So obviously I wanted to color something for this card and afterwards realized it covered up the squares on the right hand side from the MFTWSC199 sketch, but figured it would still work.

Here I used some retired DSP stash I had called: Frightfull Sight along with Concord Crush card stock and Peach Parfait along with this cute stamp set from My Favorite Things called: Which Way is the Candy and the matching dies to cut it out. 

For the sentiment, I used the stamp set: Trick or Sweet from My Favorite Things and stamped it using Pumpkin Pie (SU) and than decided to decorate the inside using more stamps from this set and Which Way is the Candy?
