IS~ Owl Fall Card

 Here is a fall card that I made using Inspired Stamps. I used several sets of stamps for this card. I made the background with Leaves stamp set. I love this set and it makes some great background papers.

The owl I used one of the cuties from the Owls set. I colored him with Copics and distress the circles. I added Glossy Accents to the eyes. The sentiment is from the Thanksgiving set. I used my spell binders to cut out the circles.

I love this Frankenstein. He is so cute. I colored him with Copics. I did him in different colors. I inked the edges of the images.

 Here are some bags I made for my husbands coworkers.

I made these all similar and filled them with candy. Since we adults don't get to trick or treat a little candy for the ladies. I found a couple cute ribbons to close up the bags with. These little bags are from Micheals.

Happy Haunting Mummy

Here is another mummy card I made using Miss Kate Cuttables adorable mummy.

The background I cut out with my Spellbinders and hand cut the flag. I used a background stamp I got at Michaels in the Halloween section for just over a dollar. I love it. Perfect for the background on these. I then used a Studio G dollar stamp for the Happy Haunting and colored the haunting in with my Copics.

The paper is from Me and My Big Ideas. This card came out so cute.

SSS234 Fisherman Birthday

I am sad to say this is the last The Sweet Stop sketch, boo. I have loved these sketches for so long and was so excited when I got to be part of the DT. I will greatly miss these sketches.

So for my last sketch card I made another male birthday card. I have never torn my paper before and I kinda dig it. I added some brown staples to add to the torn up feel. I used Stampin Up stamps on this card. I added a little color with my Copics and inked the edges of the image.

I like how my last DT card for The Sweet Stop now go enjoy your last chance to play with these wonderful sketches!

I used a lot of cut files from Miss Kate Cuttbales. She has such cute stuff. These ghosts are hers.

These pumpkins and the fence below are also her cut files. The ghost and fence are both in Halloween Borders Set. The pumpkins were a freebie that I loved and had to add.

 I decided to play with this weeks The Sweet Stop sketch a little differently this week. I decided not to use circles and a cut out instead of an image. I used DCWV paper and my Spellbinders to cut out the "circles"  I distressed them with brown ink.

The cut outs are from Miss Kate Cuttables.I used my gel pen to highlight the turkey parts.

IS~ HLO and Scripture

I made a card today that has this cute HLO and scripture from Inspired Stamps. This HLO Choir Boy/Angel is retiring so grab him while you still can. The scripture and sentiment is from Sing for Joy. I wish I would have stamped the scripture on white paper too because it doesnt show so well in the picture but it does in real life. Some cute papers, a few brads and ribbon and their you have it. I hope you enjoy my card.

This week on Inky Impressions the challenge is glitter and sparkle. I added a lot of both to this card. The paper has glitter on it. The metal accents have glitter on them as well as the ribbon.

This stamp is Princess Lili. She is so cute. I colored her with Copics and added Stickles to her.

 

I turn the image so you can see where the glitter was added. I used Stickles to make parts of the dress pop. 

I used my square punch to make this flag and stamped it with a Pink my Design sentiment that goes really well with this cute princess. I used my Irock to add the gold accents. I used ink around the edges of the flag.
