Tilda birthday card

I got my animal of the year stamps in recently and started making cards ahead of time. I love the entire stamp set!  On this card I used two doohickey frame sets.  My next project is going to make these into notebooks.  I think it'll be a great idea for birthday gifts.

Magnolia Cupid card

It's been way too long since I posted anything.  I haven't had too much time to craft but I have made some goodies.  I just wasn't able to share lately.  When I saw this new stamp from Magnolia I knew I needed it asap.  Usually it takes me a while to get around to making a magnolia card but I was itching to make one for some time now.  I thought about waiting for it to get a little older and go on sale somewhere but the wait couldn't wait any longer!  I made 3 different versions of this image and here is the first one.  She's probably my favorite Tilda image to color.  So cute and simple.  
I used MFT pinwheel flowers and Melissa Francis' Pom Pom trim.  The paper is last years recollection collection at Michaels.  I added some pink and white Frantage with some reduction pearls to finish it off. This time I went with walnut ink from TH to distress my edges.  I like a deeper shadow for this card since she has a lot of shadow going on in the image.  
A recollection metal key and clip finishes off the card!  I hope you enjoy!

Halloween card #9

Card inspiration.  I saw a card online and loved it and I knew I had to make one like it.  Unfortunately I could not find my distress inks I wanted to use so I had to use my stampin up ink pads for this card.  I did stamp the images from paper smooches ghoul friend set and heat embossed the images.  I absolutely love the sentiment.  That was the only reason I even ordered the set!  
I used a white gel pen to make the teeth and eyes pop out from all the colors going on.

Halloween card #8

I hope you like this next one.  It's a shaker card with my halloween stamp set from stampin up.  I actually ebayed this set last year.  It's classic and I have a thing for collecting retired stamp sets from stampin up.  They just don't make them the same way do they?  
The sentiment is from paper smooches ghoul friends.  

Halloween card #7

Heres card #7!  This was a simple one with square die cuts from mft square pierced dies.  The stamps are from paper smooches.  

Halloween card #6

Yoh probably noticed the same halloween paper I've been using.  It's from a paper pack I'm trying to use all up and there is just so much paper!  Lol. I got this stamp while I was surfing online. It's from eat cake graphics.  He's Harold and his Hoover.  It's 2014, why only fly on a broomstick?  Time to upgrade!  Ha! 
Once again I used distress markers to color in the image.  
I used two different sentiments from the tiddly inks stamp sets.  

Halloween card #5

I almost forgot I had ordered tiddly inks stamps during their sale over the summer.  It was such a great sale being 50 percent off all stamps.  I got my hands on a couple of halloween sets.  I colored these with my distress markers.  I used the lawn fawn banner dies and the sentiments are from the greeting farm spooky set.  I punched out the little bats from my stampin up bat punch.
