I am loving this sketch this week!  I made a card for my favorite time of the year, Halloween.

When I first saw this sketch, I thought of the Bitty Bat Punch.  Then I grab for my favorite Halloween paper, Wicked Fun Speciality Paper.  The base of the card is Rich Razzleberry, followed by a layer of Basic Black card stock.  Then the Wicked Fun Speciality Paper, I used the side that already had that torn edge look, fits perfectly with the sketch.   Punched out the squares using the Scallop Square punch and Basic Black card stock.  Then it was onto the bats, they use Rich Razzleberry card stock and then I added the rhinestone jewels for their eyes.  I think that it adds the perfect sparkle to the card!! 

Supplies:

• Rich Razzleberry & Basic Black card stock
• Wicked Fun Speciality Paper
• Bitty Bat Large Punch & Scallop Square extra large punch
• Rhinestone Jewels and pop dots

Take a few minutes to enjoy the rest of the tour, next up is Connie's blog.  Each and every week, she has something amazing and you don't want to miss it!!

A very cute sketch, but I don't like it!!!  I was not having any luck at all.  Here is what I came up with, it is not a favorite of mine.

The base of the card is Marina Mist followed by Daffodil Delight.  I used the 1 1/4" circle punch and punched out the circles in Pretty in Pink card stock.  I traced a circle and randomly stamped the flowers onto it.  Added the pretty in pink circles to the back and then attached to the Daffodil Delight layer and cut the remaining top of the circle off.  I punched out a strip of Marina Mist card stock using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon border punch.  Then I added the 1/8" Marina Mist ribbon on the top.  I stamped the saying in Basic Black and then I used Silver Foil Smooch Spritz and added a little sparkle to it.

Supplies:

• Awash with Flowers & Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set
• Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight, Pretty in Pink and Whisper White card stock
• Basic Black and Pretty in Pink ink pad
• Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1/8" Marina Mist ribbon
• Silver Foil Smooch Spritz

Please take a few minutes and continue onto Connie's blog.  She always has something fun and creative for you to see.

I just love this sketch, it helped me figure out an idea for a swap card.  Here is my version:

I used "Fang-tastic", which will be available on September 1st, it is in the Holiday Mini Catalog.  The base of the card is Rich Razzleberry followed by a layer of Basic Black card stock.  Then there is a layer of Wicked Fun Speciality  paper.  You have to get this paper, there is flocking on some sheets and it's perfect for scrapbook pages, I just love it!!  I stamped the images in Basic Black ink and then colored them in with SU Markers.  I added a piece of Basic Black lace, which is also in the Holiday Mini Catalog.  Then I stamped the saying and punched it out with the word window punch.  Punched out the Basic Black card stock using the modern label punch, added silver brads and pop dots on the back.

Supplies:

• Fang-tastic and Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set
• Rich Razzleberry, Basic Black and Whisper White card stock
• Wicked Fun Speciality Paper
• Basic Black ink
• SU Markers
• Modern Label Punch and Word Window Punch

When I saw, Cottage Garden stamp set in the catalog, I ordered it right away.  Well now I don't know what to create with it.  I hate when that happens.  Here is a card that I made for a card swap, I really like the way this turned out.  The color combinations are Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight.

The base of the card is Old Olive followed by a layer of Rich Razzleberry card stock.  Then on the Whisper White card stock, I stamped the images in Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight.  I attached the Daffodil Delight ribbon on one side and the attached glue dots to the back side and pinched it together and continued until the end.  I stamped the saying in Rich Razzleberry and then layered that onto Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry card stock and finally added pop dots.

Supplies:

• Cottage Garden stamp set
• Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White card stock
• Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight ink pads
• Daffodil Delight satin ribbon, glue dots and pop dots

Great sketch Tess!!!  Since I am in need of birthday cards, here is what I came up with:

I am in love with the cupcake from the Tag Alongs stamp set.  The nice thing about this stamp set is that $2.00 from every stamp set sold goes to the Ronald McDonald House.  What a wonderful idea that Stampin' Up! does.

The base of the card is Tempting Turquoise followed by a layer of Pawsitively Prints II designer series paper.  Then I added the rhinestones.  These are new in the catty and the are awesome!!!!!  All you do is pick off the ones you want and put them on the paper.  LOVE IT!!!!!!  I cut a square out of Pawsitively Prints II designer series paper, its actually the backside of the strips!!  I used SU Markers and colored in the cupcake and stamped it on Whisper White card stock and then cut it out.  I added a little doodling and a few pop dots and put it on the card.  Finally I used the modern label punch and punched out another piece of Pawsitively Prints II ds paper.  I stamped the saying in Basic Black and used the word window punch and added the rhinestones.

Supplies:

• Tag Alongs and Family Phrases stamp sets
• Tempting Turquoise and Whisper White card stock
• Pawsitively Prints II designer series paper
• SU Markers ~ So Saffron, Poppy Parade, Tempting Turquoise and Basic Black
• Rhinestone jewels
• Modern Label Punch and Word Window Punch
• Pop dots
