You look ... Yummy!!

Hello everyone, 
Raluca here with a cute and simple Halloween card using the adorable "Creepy Cute" stamp set.




Since Halloween is fast approaching I wanted to make a card with the cute zombie pig.



* First of I prepared my watercolor panel by diecut it using the. 
* To add color to the panel I played with my Distress Inks and the ink smooshing technique. 
* I diecut an oval from vellum to place it behind the piggy.
* I colored the image with Marco Raffine colored pencils, fussy cut it and mounted using foam squares on the vellum.
* On the panel I added a strip of black glitter cardstock and a strip of pattern paper.
* I mounted the entire panel on a black card base and my card was done, :)


* If you feel that your image doesn't stand out from the background add a piece of vellum behind it. ;)

Terhi is back with another stunning layout where she uses the new Diamonds stencil along with the Stacked Pierced BannersDouble Stitched Rectangles and Lovely Tags M. I love the colors and all the details that she adds to this amazing piece of art.



Anja has 2 more cards to share with you and I love her clean and simple style!
For her first card she uses the Hexagon web stencil along with the adorable cat from the Creepy Cute stamp set.


On her second card she creates a background with the Going graphic stamp set and she adds the sentiment from Just saying hello set on a strip of vellum. How awesome is the color combo? Love it!


 And now it's Christine's turn to share with you her amazing cards! I have no idea where she finds the time and energy to create so many beautiful projects. Hats down to her!!!

For her first card she uses the Solid Hexagons cling stamp. She heat embossed the stamp and added watercolors in a fresh color combo. For the sentiment she used the Alphabet Sticker: Black. Really pretty card!



On the next 2 cards she paired the Going graphic set with Nur mal hallo sagen stamp set. She created 2 amzing backgrounds with the stamps from the Going Graphic set and the colors are so happy and bright. AWESOME!!!!!






On the next 2 cards she used the new mini stamp set both in english and in deutsch: Happy to call you my friend / Schön, dass es Dich gibt. Don't you just love her style? 





And for her last 5 cards she played with the adorable new set Creepy Cute / Gruselig bezaubernd. She also used a ton of different CAS products and I'll try to link all of them for every card, so you could know which goodies to add to your cart ;).

On this card she used the new cling stamp Skulls and she created a background for the creepy cute bunny! I absolutely love the black on this pretty mint cardstock.



For her next card she created a background for the bunny using the Woodgrain cling stamp. For the funny sentiment she used the Alphabet Sticker: Deep Sea and Alphabet Sticker: Lime





Next, she colored the 2 cute ghosts and she created a circle background with the Balloons in the sky cling stamp. The sentiment is from Monstermäßig german sentiments stamp set. I just love the purples on this card!

Have A Monstrous Day!

Hello Crafters!

It's Kelly here and since we are coming up on Halloween I thought it would be fun to put together a little monster for you :) 


I personally struggle with buying stamp sets for specific Holidays. I don't want to spend the money on a set that I'll only use once or twice. Today's card shows how you can use your everyday day sets to create something for a holiday. No extra stamps needed :) 

It's another video today. I hope you enjoy!!




 Before heat embossing on a Distress Ink background make sure it's completely dry. You can emboss with distress ink so if it's not 100% dry your powder will stick everywhere!


You have a chance to win some goodies if you link up a project using Create A Smile stamps in the side bar :)

Thanks for stopping by!
