Hello!

6 5.5" x 8.5 Sheets of Decorative Paper (Rich Copper, Urban Basilia Black, Wood Abachi Solid)

*****************************************

Happy Halloween 

My first card uses the decorative paper included in the kit along with the Happy Halloween Die.  I also paired this with the Spider Web Window Fancy Die where I layered vellum behind the web.  The Happy Halloween was done using Twisted Citron and Wilted Violet Distress Inks and spritzed with Shimmer Spray.  I love that it looks like it is glowing!

Under my Spell

We'll just keep going with the same color scheme for this next card using Pure Magic.  I just had to make this card for my husband.  A BIG birthday is coming up!  (shh 50!)

I ink blended the same Distress Inks used in my first card onto my white notecard and a piece of white cardstock.  I stamped my potion bottles in black ink and hand trimmed out.  I added some splatters of the same Distress Inks along with some coordinating gems.  I adhered my potion bottles over a black sentiment strip where I white heat embossed "You're under my spell".

Happy Harvest

My next card uses the gorgeous wreath stamps, Autumn Wreath and this amazing Copper paper included in the kit.  

I scored a panel of the Copper paper and adhered it to my notecard.  I stamped, Copic colored, and die cut the Autumn Wreath.  I centered it onto my card and layered a sentiment strip across with one lone sunflower adhered with foam adhesive.  This card has so much shimmer from this Copper cardstock!

With Sympathy


My last card totally changes gears and goes soft and subtle for a sympathy card.  Using the Sacred Florals stamps, I colored and die cut one of the florals.  

For my background, I impressed the Cabinet Door Fancy Die twice into a panel of warm gray cardstock and trimmed down.  I added my floral with foam adhesive.  To keep this simple, I added a stamped sentiment strip and some clear gems.
