Kraftin Kimmie Saturday Challenge - Halloween

Hello! I'm hosting this week's Saturday Challenge on the Kraftin Kimmie Blog!  With Halloween just a few days away, I thought I'd challenge you all to create a Halloween card!  Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday so I had a blast with this challenge.  I used the re-released Vampire Queen.  She's still available so if you haven't already snatched her up, be sure to grab her before she's gone! 

For my card, I chose some fun and spooky Halloween papers, colored my image to match, and layered it all together.  Then I added some die cut spider webs, paper flowers, a glitter spider and some enamel dots.  I just love how it turned out!

CC Designs Gingerbread Lucy

 

Hello!  Today I'm sharing the oh so sweet Gingerbread Lucy Stamp from CC Designs!  Isn't she just adorable???  I love her so much!  She was so much fun to color up and I had a blast creating this card.  I just layered up so patterned papers, stamped my sentiment on a die cut circle and popped my image on top using foam tape.  Then I added some die cut embellishments and finished it off with a little bow.

Kraftin Kimmie Wonderful Wednesday

 

 

 

It's Wonderful Wednesday!  For my card, I chose to use the Re-Release Rubber set Bootylicious!    I just love this set and was so excited when Kim decided to bring it back.  To create my card, I chose some bright pirate themed papers, colored my image to match and created a little beach scene.  I used a cloud stencil and some distress inks to create the sky and layered some die cut clouds and 3D bird stickers on top.  Then I added some die cut waves, a skill embellishment and framed it on the center of my card.
