Gone Batty!

 


Back again with this months new release from

This week I had the chance to play with Little Boys Boos Halloween :stamp set. 


If you cannot tell, I really loved this page from the Paper pack

I started with the black cardstock for the base.  Then a layer of white to lighten the card a little.  Then I trimmed the paper to fit.  
Coloured up a trio of Bats.  These I popped using foam mounts.  Don't you just love their little faces? 
I do!
Cut out the "BOO"  and gave them some evil eyes to finish off.  The perfect addition to add a little more spook!
Thank you for popping in and don't forget to join us over in the FB Community for more inspiration.  
Happy crafting!

Halloween Gnomes

 

Whoohoo!  New release time for 

Halloween is the theme.  We are getting in early (doesn't hurt). 

I am sharing a little bit of a decor project. 


Halloween Gnomes Stamp set
 is what I have used on this cute little decoration.  I have used 2 of the 3 gnomes.  The pumpkin is from a set I already had in my stash.  
I kept the colour scheme the same as the picture inside the frame.  This is from the Paper Pack 
I am in love with this pack.  There is even a purple hued image, same as above.  I love how there is a scene in this set.  You can make your own little spooky tale if you wanted to.  
I used an old Memory Box Spiderweb die for the edges.  I thought about going with a black frame but then the spiderwebs would never have shown.  I could have gone white with them I guess but I like the white frame.  Keeps it fun with the gnomes.

Blue Birthday Kitties

 

Hi again!  I thought this week I would play along with the FB colour challenge 
has going on this month. 
So I got out my paper pack and had a flick through.  Picked out 2 different patterns.  Now I layered one on top of the other.  Very unusual for me.  I do struggle to use more than one pattern paper on a project so this is good practice for me.  


Added a bit of bling with the silver glittered balloons.  I omitted using gems/sequins for this one.  Kept it very simple.  
The stamp set used was
and the paper pack was 
and 

The sentiment is also from this set.  I stamped it in blue to match and fussy cut around it and popped it center to the image.  
Thank you for popping in and have a gander at my project.  
Happy crafting!

Waves and Sporty Pups

 


Ink N Splatter time again folks. 
I played with the same puppy as last time  He is my favourite from this set. 
I even found a die in my stash that reminds me of waves so I used that on the patterned paper
You could even say he is going down a slide. 


I even loosely played along with the new colour challenge for this month.


Thank you for stopping by. 

Happy crafting!

Pop Up Hatsune Miku

 


I am finally playing with my 

Beat Paper

images and having so much fun at the same time.  

I love making pop up cards and thought I would give it a go with 

Hatsune Miku 


The key to making a good pop up is the colour palette.  It is very easy with Beats images.  The bright turquoise colour really pops on the black and white background. 


And as you can see I love to fussy cut.  But there is no stopping anyone from using a cutting machine.  Sometimes a white outline can really make an image pop!


I have 3 cross pieces in my pop ups. But to add a little bit more you can stick an image on the front of the card.  Just as long it doesn't go outside the front panel width.  That way it won't hang out when you collapse the card and fits nicely in your envelope.  

 Also I will share my Copic combo's here too for easy reference when colouring.

Sporty Pups (Dude)

 

Hey dudes and dudettes!  I am getting my surf on in today's project share for

Ink N Splatter

using

Sporty Pups 

and a great tip for using up scrap pieces of patterned paper.


To make the wave I used the largest stamp out of my SU Artistically Inked set in 2 different colours.  Gave it a real mottled look.  
The sentiment is a random alpha die set I have and the stamped happy birthday is also just one from my stash.  
The banners at the top are a mix of papers from the 
and some Blueberry Bushel from SU also.  A great way to use up even the smallest of scraps.  Really make your dollar and stash stretch further.  
Thank you for popping in.  Until next time.....
happy crafting!

Summertime Pups Pop Up

 

Hi there! 
Sharing my latest project with 
I have done something similar before and thought it would look great using the new release papers


Who would not like to be sitting looking at this rainbow while drinking a delicious drink that has a little umbrella in it.  I personally have never gotten the umbrella with any of my drinks, so I might have to buy my own!  LOL
I normally add some balloons to the panels but honestly this paper is so pretty and busy enough that I did not want to cover it.  
Thank you for popping by.  
Happy crafting!
