I always feel like somebodies watching me....

Ok. I left the stocking punch alone for a couple cards ;)

This is a card I wanted to make as soon as I saw our new Peek-a-Boo Frames in the winter mini catalog.

My Thought: Remember all those old scooby-doo cartoons?? There were always these eyes that followed from a picture or mirror, so I wanted to re-create a 'haunted wall' scene like in those shows! 

My card base is old olive.  On top of that I layered a piece of basic gray. To make it look like a wall, I used our festive finishes letterpress and versa mark ink to give it that kind of wainscot look.  Above the 'ledge' I used basic gray ink and our four frames swirly? image.

Four Frames Stamp Set(available in clear or wood mount)

 I then ran this layer through the Big Shot with the corner only of our 'spider web' embossing folder.  I sponged this with white ink.  I ran some concord crush card stock in our new peek-a-boo frames die. So dang cute!

  I layered that on a 1 3/4" black circle with pop dots and added some googlie eyes and with our white gel pen a "b and!"

b-O-O!

I added some other frames made with our 'Frightful Sight'DSP,old olive cs,cajun craze cs,and basic black cs. I also made a make-shift 'shelf' with our jewelry tag punch.
Now back to our scary mirror...I sponged platinum shimmer paint over the interior of the frame and some spooky eyes from the stamp set Make A Monster:





 
 What a fun set!!

 Finished!!
Hope you all have a spooctacular Halloween!!!

Until Next Thought,

ok, not sure if I did this right??! but I tried to enter my 1st blog hop!! The link is below.I guess we will see :)
 

Ice Skates...

Thought:...One more Stocking Card

Are you getting sick of them yet?  'Cuz I do have some more ideas for this stocking ;))

So for this card I used rich razzleberry card stok as my base with a layer of whisper white then, wild wasabi card stock.  The wasabi was ran through my big shot and our new letterpress plate "Festive finishes" which is available in our holiday mini. I used versamark ink and sponged with a little platinum shimmer paint.

 I stamped 2 stockings in razzleberry ink with the snowflake stocking image in our 'Stitched Stocking' stamp set.  I punched those 2 images out with our 'stocking builder' punch. Using my mat pack I evenly placed some holes for my laces.  The laces were white bakers twine colored with razzleberry ink.I laced thru the holes and tied in a bow at the top. My origanal thought was to have them hanging from the branch but I did not make my laces long enough, so I just improvised ;)

I added a little of our dazzling details on the snowflakes for a little 'bling'!

The skate blades are actually the branch from out bird builder punch!! I punched out the branch in our silver glimmer paper. I trimmed the leaves off.  Using some of the scraps, I made the thin attachments for the blades.  I don't know-do they have a name??

Attach as shown ;))

I added a little tag with some scraps at the bottom with my modern label punch, word window punch and the sentiment from our 'Got Treats' stamp set.

Finished ;))

Until Next Thought,

Anniversary Stockings

Oh My Goodness!! 

I just cannot get enough of these cute stockings!

Don't worry I will only torture you with a few more cards made with them ;))

Thought:

This is a card I made while thinking that my baby brother celebrated his 1st wedding anniversary!!  Haha I'm saying baby brother and he is really quite a bit bigger than his sissy.  While I am at 5'4", I think he stands over 6" !!  Maybe I am just short?? 

To make these cute stockings, I punched out one in night of navy card stock and one in our 
sparkly:) silver glimmer paper! I embossed the night of navy stockings with the new snowburst impressions embossing folder-LOVE this!!  I then sponged my platinum shimmer paint over my snowburst navy stockings-we can never have too much bling right? Mix and match to make a cute little set ;) I made two little bows with white bakers twine and attached a little jingle bell to 1 stocking.

Now these are just gorgeous enough as they are, so I didn't want to take away any of their sparkle ;)

I used a card base of whisper white, and using our new simply scored tool, I scored 3/4" from all edges. At the two bottom edges, I turned my card on a diagonal and made score marks every 1/8" in a diagonal triangle shape. 

In the lower right hand corner from my Tiny Tags stamp set, in night of navy ink.

Finish!!

Until Next Thought,
