Lovely as a tree clasic

Hi All,
I wanted to share a card we will be making at my friends upcoming stamp a stack. I decided that I wanted to do a classic card using Lovely as a Tree. I've seen it many places and have done it a few times myself and it one of those cards that never gets old. See for yourself:

 I used a base of Whisper White, a layer of Marina Mist and Basic Black, which really gives the image a nice "pop". The image is stamped in Staz on Ink on glossy paper and I used my daubers to add the sky in coordinating shades of blue, The "snow" was done with silver and clear Dazzling Details. The sentiment was stamped in Silver Encore Ink. Love the overall clean but classic look.

Freshly Made Halloween!

Hi All,
I am still on my Halloween card making stint and wanted to share my latest creation. I had gone on over to Freshly Made Sketches and they had a great sketch as usual:

I am also still fascinated by the "Soot" technique so I combined everything and here is what I came up with:

I decided that I liked the images rotated. I used my House of Haunts once again and some retired black and white DP that I have some scraps of. I love when some of the scraps I end up hoarding work for a project! To recreate this technique you need glossy cardstock. It really packs a "Wow" in person! Have a great day!

Halloween Mojo!

Hi All,
Well I decided I better get moving on making my Halloween and Thanksgiving cards, as the Fall is quite crazy! So I had seen the "Soot" technique on Dawn Olchefske website and knew that it would be perfect for my cards.I just wasn't sure about the layout. So I went on over to Mojo Monday and they did not disappoint with their sketch:

  So without further adieu here is my first attempt.

As I have a retirement special going this week with some of my goodies I thought I should use one of my old favorites, "House of Haunts" for this card. I love the variation you get on the glossy cardstock with the flame and how some of the edges are a bit more "dog eared" then others. I decided that I liked the front without the sentiment and added inside instead. You should really try out this technique! Thanks for stopping by!
