Eye of Newt, Toe of Frog....

Hello!  Today I have a Halloween card for you.  I wasn't going to make anymore, but I decided I needed a few more for goodie bags for the neighbors.  I used a sketch from the CAS challenge over on SCS.  You can find the deets HERE.  The strips of paper are from echo park's Halloween collection from last year.  The die cut is K&Company.  I stamped the sentiment(The Stamps Of Life) in black.  It is from the solids4Halloween collection.  I used orange and green copic markers to add a couple strokes of color under the sentiment.  I added some rhinestone "bubbles" over the cauldron.

Thanks for stopping by!

Treats For You!

Hi, there!  Today will be a great day to get some stamping done.  Cold and rainy here!  I am always looking at fun, quick and easy treat bag ideas.  I also like to make tags, as opposed to cards sometimes.  They are just cute, and little and take up less space! LOL!
All you need is a small, brown lunch bag.  I used an oval punch to punch the handle.  Decorate your tag anyway you like.  I chose to do a brayered/sponged sky for this one.  The stamps are from The Stamps Of Life set, solids4Halloween.  So many super cute silhouette images in this set.  I used some baker's twine from The Twinery to tie my tag to the bag handle.  I think these will be perfect for classroom party treat bags.  I also would like to try a regular size lunch sack and make treat bags to "Boo" our neighbors!  Does anyone else do that in their neighborhood?  Fun stuff.  I will try to make one of the larger bags up and show you that version soon!

Thanks for stopping by.  I cleaned out some of my kitchen cabinets yesterday. I am on a roll, baby!

What's not to love about Owls2love?

I just LOVE the owls2love set from The Stamps Of Life! I have had oodles of fun with it.  On SCS, today's technique lovers challenge was to create a window card.  I die cut a circle on the front of my orange card base.  I then lined the inside with white card stock to create a moon.  The tree branch is hand cut from a scrap of brown card stock.  I colored my owl with copic markers, and cut him out and placed him on the tree branch.  I used a bat from the new solids4Halloween set, and the little spider is from the spooks2scare set.  The spider web I drew with a black archival  pen.  The sentiment is also from the owls2love set. 
I also stamped a few more bats inside of the card on the white panel.

Thanks for stopping by today!
