You're Wicked Fun

Sweet November Stamps recently had a new release of Halloween clear stamps. I debated about getting them but finally just dove in and bought them all as the possibilities are endless with these sets and they are so fun!!

In their Facebook group they have a challenge going on right now where all you need to do is create a Halloween card with their stamps. Easy peasy!

I'm still so intrigued by all the scene cards I see out in crafty land, especially Amy's so I decided to dive right in and create a scene card with some of the new stamps. 

I actually woke up with the idea in my head, which is always a good sign. I have to say this card did take me longer than a normal card takes me but it was so fun to create!!

I used the A Little Wicked, Horizon Lines: Spookville, and Horizon Lines: Spookville Expansion Pack stamp sets. I masked off the witch and house to add the horizon lines. The path is the first time I've tried to create something like that. Still a lot to learn but I at least tried.

I finished coloring the main scene and then stamped the cute little ghosts and cut them out and added them. I just love them!! I couldn't figure out how to add the sentiment and then it hit me to emboss it and cut it apart.

I'm really super duper proud of how this turned out and most of all, that I took a chance and tried!! I hope to keep making these scene cards and hopefully keep getting better at them!!

I'm also going to enter this card into the following challenges~

• Lil' Patch of Crafty Friends~ Anything Goes
• Unicorn Challenge Blog~ Autumn and/or Halloween
• Make the Cards Challenge~ Halloween Witch
• Aud Sentiments Challenge~ Fall/Halloween Sentiment
• C.R.A.F.T. Challenge~ Halloween/Autumn/Thanksgiving

I had to have this digi, Coffee Lover Mae, from Some Odd Girl when I saw her! I think it captures how many of us feel when we have that magical cup of coffee and the happiness it brings us!

Snail Mail

I am really in "sketch" mode this week! Today I decided to play along with the current sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches~

When I first saw the sketch I immediately thought of my MFT Blueprints 1 dies so that is where I started building the card.

I had help picking out which stamp to use~

After retrieving my die many times, we finally decided on an old Tiddly Inks stamp that was sold by Stamping Bella, Snaily Huggabug.

Countryside Bouquet...again!

I really loved coloring and creating with the digi, Countryside Bouquet from Power Poppy yesterday so I decided to color it up one more time before moving on. I've always loved seeing the same image colored and created with in numerous different ways. 

I messed up and colored one of the flowers the wrong color but I think it's still okay. Maybe. I was just having so much fun I got carried away! 

I had some help from Alyssa with photographing the card~

You're a great catch!

I found more plaid paper so I could enter a second card into the plaid challenge on one of my groups.

This fun raccoon is from SugarPea Designs and the stamp set is called Great Catch. I used my Zig Clean Color markers to watercolor him. I think I'm getting a bit better with the watercolor but still have lots to learn. It sure is fun though!

Happy Groundhog Day!! 6 more weeks of winter--I know lots of  you are going UGH but I'm saying yay as we really haven't had much of a winter here and I do love the snow.
