Faux or Real Stitches Challenge

This week at Crafty Cardmakers it is a stitches challenge, faux or real.  My card is a combination of real and faux stitches.  I used rubber stamps by Tim Holtz for the fauz stitches and ruler.  The sewing images are stamps by  Class Act Rubber stamps.  The sewing machine and scissors are chipboard by Southern Ridge Trading Company. 

I sewed my background of my card then added my rubber stamped faux stitches  and ruler. After I was happy with the background I added my stamped sewing images that I coloured with Copics and my chipboard sewing machine and scissors that I coloured with acrylic paints and Diamond Glaze. To complete the card I added  some lace and a button.

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.  Remember to stop by the Crafty Cardmakers blog to see the beautiful creations that the design team have created to inspire you.  Hope you will join in.

Haunting Halloween

A Haunting Halloween is the theme at Come and Get it Challenges this week. This is my challenge card. I love Halloween cards. 

I used a Cheery Lynn Design die for my step card along with some Halloween paper from my stash. I used a Sizzex tombstone die cut to stamp my RIP stamp from Class Act on. With my Cricut and a die cut I cut out bats and a spider and then added some bugs eye to my spider.  To complete my card I added a sentiment from my stash from Stampin Up tied with a Halloween ribbon. 

Thank you for stopping to take a look.

Anything Goes with a Twist - Halloween

Here is my first card for this week for the challenge at Fitztown Challenge Blog. I have chosen to make a Halloween card with the Blackthorne image of Last Enchanter Collection for the anything goes with a twist challenge.  Although Blackthorne is not a tradition Halloween image I thought he fit well into this card's theme.

This was a fun card to make with  a combination of digital image, die cuts, rubber stamps, string, brads, Washi tape and Halloween patterned paper.   The sentiment rubber stamp was by Class Act and the Halloween stamps are by Craftsmart.

It Is All About The Paper

I had this pretty pattern paper by K and Company that I used for the layers of this card I made for an upcoming swap.  I really like that colour combination.  The daisy rubber stamp is a unmounted stamp that I had in my collection from a Canadian company called Class Act.

I used a Martha Stewart  punch for the lace trim and Distress Ink to edge the papers and colour the background of the sunflower.  The sunflower was coloured with Copics.

I hope my swap partner enjoys my card I made for her.  Thank you for stopping to take a look.  Now to clean up the mess I made.  I do not know how I manage to pull out so many products to make one card.
