Witchy Fairy!

I created this card last night for Flutter By Wednesday #128 (purple, orange, black with a butterfly, fairy or angel) & Mercy's Tuesday Sketch #97. I just love how it came out!!

At first Witchy Fairy (from Paper Makeup Stamps) was just on a white background but she looked so blah, so I found a piece of sponge and added some SU Apricot Appeal to the background, I think it really helps Witchy pop! I was going to chalk the background at first but I have no clue where the chalks are, must be in one of the boxes that I still need to unpack LOL! All supplies on the card (with the exception of the images/ink) are from the Taylored Expressions Project Pantry kit that I got last month. I still have plenty left to make more cards next year!

Here is the sketch~my version is a little different since my image panel was much larger than I gave it space for LOL.

Thanks for looking!!

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween!

Anyone have any big plans today? My plans are working on the house, making cards and running errands - exciting, eh? I did buy candy to give out tonight, now I just hope the rain holds out long enough for me to get some trick or treaters! Since I'll be around today, I thought I'd share my Halloween cards one at a time instead of all in one post, so be sure to come back and visit later on!

Here is a card created with an image from a friend. She borrowed some of my Christmas stamps and in return sent me a bunch of Halloween, Fall and Thanksgiving images to play with.

At first I didn't care for it but after looking at it a few more times, it grew on me. I used one of Mercy's Tuesdays sketches (MTSC44) for the layout.


Card Supplies:
Stamps: image from someone else
Paper: DCWV
Ink: Memento for the inked edges
Copics: YR16, YR68, YG17, E25, E35
Accessories: ribbon (Michaels), brads (Joanns), Marvy Giga Scalloped Oval punch, Glossy Accents
