For today's card I have a Thanksgiving card made with the autumn wreath builder set by Gina K Designs. I used the template also for inks I used Altenew crisp dye inks mocha & moss with the rock & roll technique for the leave and then orange cream for the pumpkin also mocha for all the words and the decoration next to the message. The message is by Impress

Baseball

This was a fun card created with a Krazy Kreations glitter kit one of those that you do with peel-off stickers and glitter paper. For this one I used Krazy Kreations baseball peel-off stickers and the kit had the premade glitter paper and all the supplies to make 3 cards. I colored all the pieces with Copic markers and then fuzzy cut them

Shoebox Tuesday

For today's project I had a messy project using distress spray stain I have them 3 colors and of course each card came out different depending on how far or how close, how much or how little you press the stray it's how much stain you get. After they did their spray they heat set their paper and then stamped the image which was autumn leaf collage by Memory Box with VersaFine Clair fallen leaves. My card I didn't heat set as I had plenty of time to dry and looking at my recipe I also used one oxide spray color. The colors I gave them were candied apple, shaded lilac and scattered straw. the oxide I used was cracked pistachio these are the cards I made using this colors. The layers were cut with double stitched rectangle die by Kat Scrappiness and rectangle stitched framelits by SU. The outer piece, the frame was mounted on foam and the inside piece was mounted flat

Anniversary

Today is one of my dear friend's wedding anniversary and this is the card I sent her and her hubby. I wanted to use this new stamp butterfly for a while but seems never had enough time so made time finally and decide the combine with this other set so I could play with my Nuvo Drops.

First I stamped the outline of the Rubbernecker watercolor butterfly stamp then I die cut the heart with Gina Marie Designs stitched hearts die, then I stamped the second layer of the butterfly with distress oxide spray picked raspberry and fossilized amber then I sponged my grass with mowed lawn ink and the clouds with tumbled glass ink with a very old plastic stencil that had the clouds on top and grass on bottom and some other stuff in the middle. Mounted the layer on foam and then stamped the heart with amalgam whisper ink and then cover each dot with Nuvo Crystal Drops one line rhubarb crumble and one line gloss party pink

String art

On one of my Yahoo groups the theme for Sunday Tip or Technique and on another group it was the Tuesday Try This had the string art that Jennifer McGuire share and finally had time to play with it. I used a piercing frame die I had and dug out my paper embroidery thread out then die cut some leaves. I used texture diamond designer stencil by MB with life changing blender brush on my Wendy Vecchi Make Art STAY-tion with vintage photo ink mounted the frame on foam and then die cut the words by Gina K Design

Día de Muertos

Today we celebrate the day of the dead. In Mexico we use the skeletons as one of the customs whether sugar or chocolate so my card is supposed to be a sugar skull. I'm also doing one of the Sunday Tip or Technique that were share of spinner card

The washi tape is from Impress but other than that don't know who makes it, for my skull I die cut two one in pink and one in black it wasn't a perfect mirror image but almost. I used my Copic airbrush system to color a packaging piece of plastic which was stronger than acetate this was supposed to be my "sugar" part then I glue the pink skull to one side and black to the other side and then fuzzy cut around it did two tiny holes on each side to attach fishing cord on each side and then twisted and twisted so it could spin so fun! that's what you would do before putting in envelope so when they take out it will spin right away 😊 the skull die is by Ellentina, the message is from sugar skulls by HA with tuxedo black

Thanks

Quick cards made out of a scrapbook paper the whole paper had the pumpkins as a border to add the pictures on top but of course as card maker this paper was not useful at least it wasn't for many years until I decided to cut it into pieces and made it into thank you cards the top part of the 12 x 12 I tossed it. Message was stamped with ground espresso and the banner was punched with triple banner punch by SU
