Hearts

Hi friends

With Valentines Day around the corner time to make some hearts and love cards!

Inside sentiment from CZ Design Stamps (You 2) stamped in Gina K's cherry red ink.

The Dream Factory Challenge #144 Coco Day of the Dead/And or Halloween

 Hey friends I'm guest designing over @ The Dream Factory today! They always host some great challenges based on fun films! Inspiration for the challenge can come from the poster or something else in the Coco film.  

Keywords: Day of Dead, Halloween, Fun, Colorful. 

Enter with any kind of handmade project: Card, ATC, Journal Page, Tag, 3 D Projects etc.

I was inspired by day of dead & the colors of hot pink & green, red, orange, yellow, purple & blue that I saw in the Coco trailer! 

Viva La Vida (Long Live Life)

 I made a card with the Recollections Sugar Skull stamp set, stamped in black onyx ink & colored with Ohuhu water-based markers. Sentiment stamps are from Spellbinders Dancin' Halloween.

I colored the background in with a pretty turquoise to highlight the sugar skulls more. Adhered panel to a red scallop card-die onto black cardstock. Finishing card with little Honeybee gems for the skull eyes. 

Today is also Day 15 of LeighSBDesigns 31 Days of Halloween Hop! And I plan on making something for all 31 days of Halloween, earning the title as Wicked Maker! Come join us in these fun challenges & show some love!

Get Well Bouquet

Hi crafty friends, I made a get-well card to share with you today that I saved after a mishap. (having a lot of those lately)

 I colored flowers with markers and was adding liquid pearls when I smudged some on top, to save the card I cut around image and adhered it to a red card panel. I did color & cut two more flowers, adding them to help cover up my bad cut job too.

Stay Creative. Tee
