Thankful for You Fall Card!

It's Wednesday and it is time for another challenge at Craftaholics R Us. This week's theme is Thank You! I went with a Thankful for You card.

I used a set of leaf stamps from Bo Bunny and stamped them onto a piece of cardstock from Papertrey Ink that was diecut with a Stitched Rectangle die from Jaded Blossom. I used the same cardstock for my card base and attached a piece of patterned paper from Doodlebug Design. The Thankful for You stamp is from Jaded Blossom as well.

I can't wait to see what you make for this week's challenge!

Blessings,

                    

Grim Reaper!

I'm in need of a spooky gift card holder for a Halloween gift, so I am using the Chibi Grim Reaper from SVG Cutting Files.

He should cause a fright!!!

All the Halloween is on sale right now at SVG Cutting Files store, so head over there and see what you will find frightfully delightful!

I also used the Folding Gift Card Die, the Goody Bag Die Insert, Gift Card Die and Mini Tag Dies 2 from Jaded Blossom.

The cardstock is Papertrey Ink and the paper is Doodlebug Design.The sentiment is from Scrappy Mom Stamps.

Thanks for dropping by!

Blessings,

                 

Spooktacular Birthday!

It is my day to post over on the Jaded Blossom Blog, so I have a treat for you today!

I always wanted an October birthday so that I could get Halloween birthday cards; so when my niece had her birthday last week, I couldn't help myself - I had to make a Spooktacular card!!!

Isn't it cute!!! I used Card Mat Dies, Stitched Circle Dies, Halloween Dies, and So Many Birthdays 3. The card base is cardstock from Papertrey Ink.

Hope you are getting excited for some trick or treating. We will be joining my brother and his family at their haunted front yard. I'll share pictures of our hauntingly happy fun!

Blessings,

                   

Pumpkin Vampire Card!

Excited to be sharing this fun card using a new file from SVG Cutting Files called Pumpkin Vampire. 

This sweetie will be available in the store this Friday along with some of his favorite pumpkin friends!!! Check out the SVG Cutting Files Blog all week for lots of fun sneak peeks!

I used my Silhouette cutting machine to make him into a fun card. I think he would make the perfect Halloween invitation for all your spooktacular parties this month! My card is going to be for my daughter's teacher this year. My daughter and I will have to see about putting together a package of Vampire Candy Bites to go with it!

I used Papertrey Ink and Bazzill cardstock.

Thanks for dropping by!

Blessings,

                     

Halloween Challenge - Craftaholics R Us #39!

It's my turn to post for the Craftaholics R Us Challenge!

This week's theme is Halloween!

I used an SVG cut file from Doodlebug Design that I purchased from the Lori Whitlock store. This little ghost is just too cute!!!

For the inside, I cut a piece of Papertrey Ink's Green Parakeet cardstock using Jaded Blossom's Card Mat Dies and then stamped a Happy Halloween sentiment from an old Scrappy Moms stamp set.

Can't wait to see what you create!

Link up your projects on the Craftaholics R Us blog. This challenge will run through
Tuesday, Oct. 10 at Noon Eastern Time.

Blessings,

                     

A Halloween Hello!

It has been a few weeks, but I was finally able to finish another MFT Weekly Sketch.

This was made using Sketch 352. The stamp set is MFT's Witch Way is the Candy!

The patterned paper is from MFT's Dots and Stripes 6x6 paper pad. I used Copic markers to color my images and the then colored the yellow panel with the same yellow Copics I used for her dress. I used foam squares to adhere the panel, the witch, and her famliar.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

Blessings,

                    

Halloween Card!

I'm so excited to be sharing another Halloween creation with you! It is my day to post
for the Jaded Blossom Blog.

To get started, I dug through my stash to find the Jaded Blossom Halloween stamps and dies that I would use - Halloween Paint Splatters, Halloween Panels, the new Halloween Banner Dies, Happy Halloween Word Dies (the September Release Freebie), and Halloween Dies.

I started with a piece of white watercolor paper and used my brand new Distress Oxide Inks in Spiced Marmalade and Twisted Citron to make my background. (Love the new Oxide Inks way better than the old Distress Inks.) I then used my Black Soot to stamp the cracks from the Halloween Paint Splatters set and the Spider with its web from the Halloween Panels set. I then diecut the Witch's Hat, Happy Halloween words (cut and layered 3x), and the bats and then added them using various mediums. The black cardstock is all Papertrey Ink True Black.

Leave a comment letting me know which Jaded Blossom stamp or die set is your favorite for Halloween. And let me know if you have tried the new Distress Oxide Inks. Do you love them as much as I do?!!

Blessings,

Welcome Fall! Jaded Blossom September Release Day 1!

It is September release time at Jaded Blossom. This time of year is my favorite as it is time for Halloween and fall crafting and this new release is sure to help you along.

Today we are showcasing the new Pumpkins, Pumpkin Faces, and the Fall Banner Dies.

Fall means pumpkins and sunflowers and harvest and even cinnamon and caramel popcorn. Yum!!!

I used the My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Halloween collection and some Kraft Cardstock from Papertrey Ink to make my tag - Luggage Tag Die. To decorate it, I stamped two pumpkins from the new Pumpkins set onto some patterned paper and fussy cut them out. I colored in the stem with a Copic marker. I diecut the sunflower from the new Fall Banner Dies. The wheat stalks are from the Autumn Panels set and the sentiment is from Happy Fall. Both were added using Zing Copper Embossing Powder. It is such a pretty tag - I wish you could see it in person!!!

The new release will be available this Friday, but if you can't wait ...

Zombie Virus!

I know you all are thinking sunshine and rainbows and flip flops with all that heat outdoors, but sometimes I just have to craft something I love and for me that is something for Halloween. And besides, next month everyone is going to be bombarding us with Christmas in July, right!!!

So today, I dug the Poison Bottle out of the Halloween section of the SVG Cutting Files Store to post here and on the SVG Cutting Files Blog.

I turned the Poison Bottle into a shaped card using the weld function in Silhouette Studio software. My husband is a huge Walking Dead fan, so this will make a great card for him. 

I decided to decorate the bottle with the new Label Shape Dies from Jaded Blossom and used sentiments from Pick Your Poison and Spooky Labels.

And now that I think of it, Halloween is only 4 months away, so maybe I'll be hanging out in the Halloween section of the store a lot more between now and then! Bwahahaha!

Thanks for stopping by today! See you soon!

Blessings,

Happy Monday to you all!

It's my day to post for SVG Cutting Files! This new Pumpkin Icing Cupcake is a file that will be available on Friday! It's just too cute and will make such a sweet file for some cute cards or treat boxes for fall and Thanksgiving. I decided to use this one on a card.

Sometimes we just need to say Hello!

This smiling Pumpkin Icing Cupcake is the cutest! 

I also used the Card Mat Dies, Mini Tag Dies 2, and Simple Sayings from Jaded Blossom. The paper is from Doodlebug Design.

Thanksgiving Treat! Jaded Blossom November Challenge!

It's November and I am loving the brisk nights!  was putting my calendar together tonight for activities we already have planned for November and December and I just know it is going to fill up fast. But Spending time with family and friends this year is going to be so much fun after living so far away for so long! We are slowly settling into our house. I still don't have my craft space set up yet, so right now everything is laid out across my dining room table. But I did manage to get my project done for the November challenge at Jaded Blossom.

The November theme is Thanksgiving/Thankful!

Here is a fun treat box that would be super cute as part of a
table setting for the family gathering:

I used the Flag Dies, Happy Fall, and Hey Chickie from Jaded Blossom. The gift box is an svg from SVG Cuts. I used papers from Simple Stories for the feathers and the hat band.

I hope you will join us for the November Challenge. And, of course, we want to see all your fun projects in the JB Garden of Creativity.

Enjoy your November and be watching for the Jaded Blossom November Release coming soon.

Blessings,
                   

Autumn Greetings!

I'm sharing on the Jaded Blossom blog today!!!

The calendar tells me that it is officially my favorite time of the year - Autumn. And the slight changes as some of the leaves on the trees begin to color confirms it. Now to get October rolling. Baseball playoffs, the beginning of basketball season, walks through the park enjoying the palette of colors, apple pies, pumpkin everything, and to cap the month off - Halloween! Nothing gets better than that!!!

So Autumn Greetings to all of you!!!

The Autumn Greetings and Give Thank sentiments are from the new Happy Fall stamp set from this month's release. I also used Jaded Blossom's Border Dies and Goody Bag Die. The card base and sunflowers are from My Scrap Chick and the paper is Simple Stories.

I hope you enjoy your day. Thank you for dropping by!

Blessings,

I don't care which Jaded Blossom dies I use, because I love them all. And today's new dies are no exception. The tree limbs will add such an awesome background to a variety of projects!!! For this project, I knew I wanted to do a Halloween scene. At first, I thought I'd make a card, but then I decided I needed a treat box!!! I took the concept I wanted for the card and just added it to the front of the box. Along with the new Scenic Dies, I used Halloween Dies, Halloween Dies 2, Candy Charms and Banner Dies, and Spooky Labels. The paper is from Graphic 45 and the box is from SVG Cuts Carousel Ride kit.
