Happy Owl-Oween

Hello again!  It feels like forever since I have posted something for fun.  With the cool fall days and Halloween creeping closer and closer, I was in the mood to create a little card using one of my all time favorite PI girls.


I gave my little girl some strawberry blonde hair to go with my Halloween themed card.  A little touch of glitter always adds that much needed sparkle to an Owl costume.  ;)


I popped up the panel with the stamped image with some pop dots to add a little dimension.  Also, I didn't have the die that looks like a notebook sheet, so I improvised and used an old border punch.


SUPPLIES USED:




I was so happy to have some free time to play along with the MFTWSC sketch this week.  I really want to try and get back into the habit of playing weekly again.  Since school started, I feel like there is never enough time in my day.  Am I the only one with this problem?

Witches and Goblins

Hello.  I am back again to share the other card I made using my Halloween vintage images.  Isn't this the cutest image?  I think this skull key charm fits perfectly.  I can imagine that she is the keeper of the key to the cage that houses the Goblins.  I was so excited when the cute new frame I found at Michaels fit right over the Happy Halloween.  I had to do some playing around to figure out how I was going to work that out.  The frame is from Making Memories.  They have some great new metal embellishments. 
What do you think?  Witches, Goblins, and a doily.  LOL
I also used black tread in my sewing machine and did a little zig zag stitch.

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI/Ripe Avacado
DP: Basic Grey & K and Company
Vintage Image:  Internet
Frame: Making Memories
Key charm:  from my mom's beeding stash

Halloween Tricks

Hello and Happy Tuesday!  I have been seeing so many cute Halloween cards lately.  I have bunches of vintage images saved and was dying to use them.  I get most of my images from Hub Pages.  Pretty much if you search for vintage images you can find them for free.  I also have a couple links on my side bar with vintage images. 
So this is the one I have to share today.
I took these photos in my sons room this morning.  It think this is better light.  A little warmer and not so much grey.  The walls are the same color in the whole house.  Russian White.  Which is an almost cream color.  So I guess it just makes a difference in the amount of sun coming in the room.  In his room in the morning is full sun.  I angled the blinds so I didn't get direct light but plenty of light.  What do you think?  Better?
I thought this little girl looked so cute with this Basic Grey paper that looks like old wall paper.  I am totally addicted to vintage images.  But!  I like my stamps too.  I am completely torn.  What do you like seeing here the most?  Please be honest.
I dug through and pulled out all my Halloween embellishments.  I went through all my Basic Grey pads of paper and pulled out any sheets that I thought could possibly work and pre printed my images at 3.75 inches tall which seems to be the best size that I like to work with.  I pull them up in Microsoft Word.  I put as many images on that page as would possibly fit and printed at one time.  Then cut them up.  I lay the images out on papers that I think goes with the image I want to work with.  Then I just create away.  Wait until I show you the other one I made.  :)  I will share it tomorrow.
