Halloween Cards




I used Splendor Level 2 paper pack for this layout. The photos are so much fun....my 10 year old daughter caught a big jackfish with her pink Barbie fishing rod!

Magnifique!

Here are a couple of FUN layouts using a new level 2 paper pack from Close To My Heart. It's called MAGNIFIQUE! I stamped the title and colored the Just Blooms paper flowers with coordinating ink.
This layout uses a sketch from the new MAGIC Scrapbook program! It's full of interactive ideas for your layouts. Check out my menu on the left side of my layout.

Christmas Cuddles

Really enjoyed working with this Pagemaps sketch and Jeanette Lynton's color combo.

Since I did not have any b&t pp that I could use, I made my own with my Close To My Heart stamps and Prisma Glitter.

I love how my title turned out. I firstly stamped it with Lilac Mist then I used my sponge dabber and Outdoor Denim ink to add some dimension.

To make the "joy", stamp the image twice in your two colors of choice, then cut out your j and y, paste overtop of the other color. Add some Prisma Glitter to the snowflake. Voila you have a custom made embellie.
