Inspired Stamps DT Post~~ Fall

 Lovely little girl isn't she! She is from Inspired Stamps. If you have not seen there stamps you should go check them out.

I colored her with Copics and added a few metal accents with my Irock by her. I have been working on a wreath using these paper fan folds so I decided to try it on a card. It came out cute but thick so definitely no mailing this card. It would make a perfect turkey tail too.

This second card was inspired by a fellow DT member.
If you have not checked out Inspired Stamps yet you should head over there and take a look. They are great stamps. http://inspiredstamps.blogspot.com/

I am entering these cards into these challenges

Bugaboo Monster BDay Card





I love this little monster. I was so excited to see it in the freebie section on the Bugaboo Blog. Honest I make sure to check it out every weekend so I can get the latest freebie. I love Bugaboo stamps so much but the hubby has me on a budget so I have to limit my purchases which is killing me right now because I really want the monster behind the cake Bugaboo just released. Anyways on to this card.
I colored him with Copics and put him on top of an embossed yellow circle with chalked edges on top of a scallop circle. I added a couple metal accents with my irock, a few brads and added some twine. The enjoy stamp is from Inspired Stamps another favorite stamp company of mine.

School Cards

I wanted to share a couple cards I haven't had a chance to post.
 The top card image is a Bugaboo set that I fell in love with. I colored the image with Copics and added this card to my collection for later in the year. Sometimes when a teacher is having a hard year I like to give them cards to hell cheer them up. So this is my just in case that happens card. I actually have someone in mind for it already and its only been three weeks of school!
 These two cards I made for our new principal and vice principal. This image is also from Bugaboo. I added a personalized message to the whiteboard (since we dont use chalkboards anymore).
All simple cards but I liked them. Thanks for stopping by!

Sneak Peek ~~Inspired Stamps

Here is a little peak at the new releases for September! Look how cute this boy is. I just love the characters Antoinette  creates. This boy is a single stamp named HLO Thankful Boy and the sentiment is from her Fall Gratitude set. 
I cut the card using Birthday Bash, chalked the edges and added a few gems with my Irock to the corners. I used gold cardstock for the outside square and the lacy scallop behind the boy. The decorate paper is K&C Company Best of Brenda Walton. I wrapped twine around the square.
