I had a hard time choosing a color for these beauties! I always seem to reach for the pinks…oops!!
I stamped these beautiful flowers on X-Press It Blending Card and colored them with Copic Markers and Prismacolor Pencils.
I used the pretty border die called Creative Edges: Scalloped Scallops Die Set as the base for the bottom band. I added a layer of gold card stock as the second layer, carefully measuring just above the detail from the scallop side to where I wanted it from the top edge. For the top layer I used a slightly smaller piece of white cardstock scored in the middle, and then every 3/8″ in both directions.
A few tiny white pearls from my stash were added to the scallop detail. Lastly, I added a few gorgeous Altenew’s Satin Gold Sequins to my card. The sparkle is the perfect final touch.
I chose a fall theme card that features these super adorable little foxes from the Happy Fall Foxes Stamp Set. I couldn’t resist…just look at those sweet faces and big fluffy tails!!
I stamped these little sweet little furballs on X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with the following markers.
I started with a 5×5 card base with the top two layers being 1/8″ smaller each layer.
To create the shaker element I die cut the leaf shape once out of the orange print paper, the word paper, and 5 times out of thick white card stock. When you cut this die it gives you a frame and a plain leaf from the center. I used the inside portion of the leaf frame die for the background of the shaker frame.
I attached the white tulle to the back of the orange leaf frame with double sided scor-tape and then attached the first white frame with more scor-tape. The remaining 4 white frames were glued to the tulle ‘sandwich’ one layer at a time. I then added my shaker bits on top of the word print leaf and carefully glued the orange frame stack to the card front making sure that it was lined up perfectly. I used white tulle for the shaker front instead of acetate so I didn’t have a glare on the front.
The dies used on my card:

I’m back today with my last creation as a guest designer for RAM Stamps September new release.
These adorable trick or treat friends are from the digital stamp set called ‘Trick or Treat Mouse‘.
What an adorable costume that would make…just sayin’!
I printed these little cuties on X-Press It Blending Card and colored them with the following markers and colored pencils.
~Copics and Prismacolor Pencils~

I’m not a huge black and orange fan, so this softer version of Halloween paper was perfect for my project. I added a wide piece of ribbon to add a little break from the diagonal stripes. Since my ribbon had a definite one way pattern I cut the ribbon in half and attached the two pieces together behind the center frame in opposite directions. Two black enamel dots were added as the final touch.

I started with the bat embossing folder from Whimsy Stamps as my inspiration. I filled the space at the bottom of my card first using the word EEK that I cut out on my Cameo Silhouette. I cut it three times and glued the pieces together as a stack to add dimension.
I then stamped the sentiment from the stamp set adding borders to make it stand out, but still felt it was lacking something. I found this cobweb border from the Silhouette store and trimmed it down to fit my card. I added a few bats and pumpkins to fill in the empty space.

The black print paper at the top of the tags had no green in it, but for balance I wanted it to have some green. So to make it work I used colored pencils to add green over certain design elements. I had so much fun creating these and can’t wait to give them with a gift!

I love the smell of gingerbread cookies baking…yummm!
I stamped these cute little Gingies on X-Press It Blending Card and colored them with the following markers.
~Copics~
Brown: E55, E33, E31, E30, E50 White: C3, C00 Red: R46, R29, R24 Cheeks: R32, R30 Fine details were added with Prismacolor Pencils White Gel Pen
My idea was to make the Gingerbread cuties look like they were part of a Christmas garland. To achieve this I punch tiny holes in their hand with a paper punch and tied them together with red and white bakers twine. The bright red paper I used for the background is from the Hot Cocoa Time 6×6 Paper Pad.
