SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #255 H is for Halloween

 

Hello and welcome snarky friends!

It's been a minute since I've posted anything.

To rectify that, here's my slightly late post for

the new challenge at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS: HALLOWEEN!

As is my way, I mixed some old and new items

to create this card. I just love this cauldron die!

Another sentiment finishes the inside.

Since I had everything out, I created another card.

As I said earlier, I've been remiss in sharing cards here.

I'm making them, but just wasn't blogging about them.

Also, we just survived hurricane Helene. We live

in western North Carolina. Though we

luckily didn't get washed out from flood waters or mudslides,

we lost power for 7 days. 11 of 22 Leyland cypress trees

that lined our driveway and ran to the back of our

property came down. In our neighbor's yard.

We've been busy cutting the trees down and hauling

everything away. Ever since Helene, we've had spotty

internet connection. It's taken until today

for me to be able to post anything.

Things are getting better here, but

there's still so much needed for those

who've lost everything in the mountains.

And now, hurricane Milton gave a double

blow to Florida. It's heartbreaking.

Well, enough of me being 'Debbie Downer'.

I hope that you'll play along in our Halloween challenge

this month at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

If you need some inspiration, simply visit the blogs of

my sisters to see their amazing projects!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope that you have a great day!

Coastal Chic Birthday Wishes

 Hello and welcome!

It's been a minute since I've been here.

Mr. Mojo was apparently on vacation for over a week,

but he's back and so here is a card I created over

the weekend:

I'm digging this color combination of red, pink and craft!

Here is the finished inside:

Not too blingy. I've added some glitter drops to the

berries and the centers of the flowers for

a bit of sparkle. 😊

That's all for now. Thanks for visiting, and I

hope you have a great rest of your day!

It's time to shell-ebrate!

 Hi there! I'm back with another post today. 😊

There's been some really great card sketches

in blogland recently, and I wanted to 

play along with some of them.

Here's a tropical inspired card:

I adore this seashell image and had to color it up again. I used kraft ink

to blend over the nautilus stencil on the back panel, and a blue tone on 

tone wave stencil on the smaller panel. 

All it needed were a few pearls to complete.

Here's the finished inside:

Well, the fur baby is letting me know he wants a walk, so I shall be off.

Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!

Let's Shell-ebrate!

 Hello and welcome, crafty friends!

I took some time to do some organizing in

my craft room. Mostly, reorganizing my 

extensive collection of die cuts. I store mine in ArtBins.

I'm now up to 9 bins, and mostly already full of dies.

I may have a hoarding problem. LOL!

While putting things away and straightening up,

one of the new-to-me stamp and die sets,

Floral Shells by Pink & Main,

bellowed to me to be used for the first time.

These are some gorgeous images of shells

that have various flowers in and around them.

I experimented with only using two colors of markers

and the colorless blender to color them.

I love how they look like they are glowing!

Here are two cards I made with two of the images:

Here's the finished inside:

The nautilus stencil is new and also the first time used.

I just stacked both panels, cut on an angle and had four

half pieces to work with.

Here's the other card I made with the two other panels:

The finishing touch was to add some glitter glue to

the flowers for a bit of sparkle.

Now, to create cards using the last two images!

Thanks for visiting. I hope that you have a great day!
