Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!  Here is a fun card I made; it came together quickly with the use of the Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge, cut the card pieces at 7", use a marker to color in the bats on the moon, back with a piece of honey paper, stamp with a sentiment and you are all set!

Stamp set:  Holiday Tags

Paper: Black, Honey, Whisper

Ink: Gypsy
Black marker 

Scooter birthday card

For today's post, I was inspired by Michelle's blog, a fellow Close to My Heart consultant who made a really nice birthday card using a combination of stamp sets to showcase in the Holiday Expressions blog hop.

I used the same stamp set for the main image and Kaleidoscope papers.  I wanted to have the scooter rims stand out so used some liquid glass to make them nice and shiny, here is a close up view.

If you'd like to try out a similar card, here are the supplies I used:

Stamp sets: Make It Merry and Holiday Tags
Paper: Kaleidoscope paper packet

Ink: Archival black (or regular black), Gypsy, Canary
Embellishments: Clear Sparkles, Liquid Glass, Cherry Pink marker, and some clear glitter glue I happened to have on hand

I also used my Artiste Cricut cartridge to cut out the background image for the birthday sentiment. I love using these cartridges on my projects; it makes the process go so quickly if you are making multiple cards of a similar layout!
