Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun!

 Hi everyone!

I hope you are all doing well and enjoying some nice weather :)

Today I wanted to pop in real quick and share a super fun card that I made with a stamp set that is going to be released soon from Gerda Steiner Designs called FABOOLOUS BIRTHDAY.

Fun right?

Here is how I made it...

I started by creating an A2 top folding cardbase using purple cardstock. 

Next I used a die to cut out my scallop rectangle and frame. I adhered both of those pieces onto a piece of white cardstock and doodled around the inside of the frame with a black Micron pen. I stamped my images from the FABOOLOUS BIRTHDAY stamp set using black Memento Ink, colored them in with COPIC markers and fussy cut them out. I popped them up onto my card with some foam tape and added some black confetti stars.

I stamped my sentiment onto a piece of purple cardstock and heat embossed it using some black embossing powder. I trimmed it down, flagged the ends and popped it up with foam tape also.

I decided to add a little bow on one of the "ghouls" and added a little sparkle to the Disco Ball with a sparkle pen.

Copic Markers Used:

Ghost: B0000, B00, RV34, V12

Disco Ball: V000, V12, V15, V17

Hey There Boo-tiful!

 Happy Augtober!! haha!

Anyone else getting excited about the Halloween season or is it just me??

I think Halloween is one of my favorite seasons to create for, with the exception of Christmas.

I love this sweet little ghost from Digi Doodle Studios, called Bubbles La Boo, and couldn't wait to get her printed out, colored up and put onto a card!

Here's how I made it.

I started by covering my A2 card base with some patterned paper and rounding one of the corners. I inked around the perimeter with some residual ink that was left on my blending brush. Next, I cut down a smaller piece of patterned paper from the same paper pad and added a little border on two of the sides. I created the border by die-cutting two border pieces using a smaller die from Recollections and just gluing them together on the back of my patterned paper, overlapping them at the bottom corner. Next up was that super cute ghost, Bubbles La Boo! I printed her out twice, once on white cardstock and once again on a piece of plaid patterned paper. I colored her, very simply, with my Copic markers and then fussy cut her out. I added her to my card and then started working on her bow. I fussy cut the bow that was printed on the patterned paper, added some Copic coloring to add just a little dimension and then popped it up with some foam tape. I used a sentiment strip for my greeting and added some puffy star stickers and some black doodling to complete my card.

I think she is so cute!!

 Hi friends and happy Monday!

I hope you had a great weekend and are ready to take on the week!

It is still so hot here so we took it easy and stayed home where it is nice and cool lol!

The up side to staying home is a little more crafty time!! Yay!!

With school starting soon, I decided to make a super cute gift card holder that is perfect for a teacher.

Isn't is so cute?? Here is how I made it...

I started by creating that little bird using a die from Jaded Blossom, Gnome Friends: Bird Die, adding some little glasses & an apple to hold. I die cut a piece of lined patterned paper and used a Binding Edge paper punch to cut one edge to resemble a piece of notebook paper and added it to my "paper bag" pocket. I die cut some letters and numbers & placed them in the top left corner. I added my little bird in the bottom right, adding some stars to fill the empty spaces. 

I trimmed down a piece of white cardstock to fit inside my pocket and used a gift card die to add the stitched lines and gift card notches. I created a double bow as act as the "handle" and added my gift card. 

I added some white doodles with a paint pen and some white Nuvo drops to complete my project.

So super cute!!

I would like to play along with the following challenges:
