Just Us Girls Challenge #876 - Stencil Week

It's an anything goes for this stencil week.  I'm good with that!

My card this week is rather busy.  

I used a Tim Holtz stencil; a flower die [inlaid, and I have no idea who's this is], and a layered Hello from Dare 2B Artzy.

Busy or not, I am kinda liking this card.

Your turn!  Come on over to JUGS #876, and show us how you used a stencil.

STAMPlorations Day

The new trend of ephemera is kinda brilliant.   When you need a fast, easy card - yep, this is the way to go! Shery has some amazing images in the Ephemera Category.  Today I am using a few images of ephemera that can pair with Perfect Pairs; Classic Christmas for the sentiment [*11 images + sentiment stamp is only $10]

Aren't these images just stunning!  The poinsettia - oh yes please!

Like I said, for a 5-10 min creation, use that ephemera!  The end result is beautiful.

See you next week~

October Instagram ATC Hop

I'm not sure if artist trading "coins" are okay for this hop.  But, I'm going with them anyway.  [better to ask for forgiveness vs approval 😉]

I started with a master panel and inked swiped, added tissue paper, did some embossing paste stenciling, and random stamping.  a wonderful mixed media master.  Once all was dried, I cut out 3, 3 1/2 circles.

I added the flowers, leaves, and bold words, along with a tie string, and they were done.  They ended up with a nice, unplanned, autumn color combo.  There's a win!

You can see the rest of the hop HERE.

Memory Box Day

It's time for another Memory box Day.  Again, I am going with a Christmas card.  It works well for me since it is building my Christmas card stash!

Isn't this guy, Lumi Bird, too cute?  He totally makes me smile.  After cutting and glueing him together, I adhered him on top of inverted layers using the Fan Stitched Scalloped Square Frames.  I added a sentiment from Christmas Wonder Clear Stamp Set with Dies.

It's a basic card, but adorable! 😀

I'll be back next month with more cards!

CutCardStock Day

I'm keeping with the Christmas mode.  It is getting to be that time of year!

I used the following colors for this lovely CAS card; Classic Linen [base], Re-Entry Red, Hunter Green, Stardream Metallic Fairway, and Bright Foil Gold.  

I just love color against a white background!
 

See you next week~

Addicted to CAS Challenge #319 - Pumpkin

I found a fun stamp set filled with Halloween images [in my stash - retired naturally].  It had a few pumpkins in it, but I was drawn to the adorable tiny one.

Isn't it cute?  I love it.  This one is going to my grandson for sure!  For a fun change, I went with a purple card base.  [Such a bitch to photograph!]

Your turn.  Come on over and play along at Addicted to CAS #319.
