Blue Knight - Evergreens

Here is a card I made using Blue Knight Rubber Stamps "Evergreens".   I really love the detail the trees have.   I tore paper to make a mask for the sky and sponged around it. Stamped the trees over the sponged sky.   I used a handsome hunter ink to stamp my trees.

Blue Knight has just released some really AWESOME stamps.   Be sure to go and take a look at them Here

I am enjoying the Fall weather we are having.  Last night we had a weiner roast and chili.  We had family and friends over.  We had a great time.   I hope to do another one before it gets too cold.  It is hard to believe that October is almost gone and it went so fast.

You all have a great week.  Watch out for the broom riders, they get a little crazy this time of the
year.  :)



Hope you all are having a great weekend.

QKR Stampede - Broom Parking 50 cents

Today starts a new challenge for the QKR Stampede blog  and the theme is "Pumpkins".   I used the QKR image "Parked" for my card.  I colored the image with Copics and sponged clouds in the sky.  The sentiment is computer generated.  And "yes" that is my broom.   ~smile~

Ms. Dot - The Crazy Lampshade Lady

The challenge over at Splitcoast today was about the "eyes" for World Sight Day.  I looked through some of my images that have been in a bagand I chose this  (Squigglefly) image that I colored a long time ago and it was never made into a card.  When I saw this image, I knew it was perfect for a quick card by adding some Halloween eyes to her lampshade.  I have no idea what Ms. Dot has in her glass, but I say tomorrow she won't be feeling so well. :) 

An older friend once told me that I have an "Off the Wall" sense of humor so I guess this is where I apologize for being so corny.  :)

How- Ya Doing?

The Splitcoast Color Challenge this week had awesome colors to work with.   I couldn't resist making a card for this challenge.

I love this stamp set by Sugar Pea. Since it was an Autumn set, I kept telling myself "no", you don't need it.   (I have lots of Autumn sets that do not get used)  Self did not listen and ordered it. :)  "Self is so in trouble".   LOL

Hope you enjoyed my card today.

Pet Sympathy

My friend, Melody, recently had to say goodbye to one of her basset hounds.  She loves her dogs like I do and has taken it really hard.  I made this card for her using the Our Daily Bread Designs Pet Sympathy stamps.   I love the paper I used, but it was a scrap and I cannot tell you the name of it.  The black heart embellishments were made with a stamp from this set.  I used clear embossing powder on them to achieve a shine and to make it thicker, but not thick enough that it required additional postage.

I hope you enjoyed my card today and I hope Melody likes it when it arrives in her mailbox today.
