For you

Hello!

I’m sending everyone flowers to brighten their day! I love purple flowers, but sadly they are hard to find in some varieties. The great thing about sending handmade cards is you can color the flowers any color you wish.

This gorgeous die from Crafty Meraki called Avery Mini Slimline Die is perfect to get creative with.

The flower portion of my card is from a die cut. The die was cut using X-Press It Blending Card and was colored with the following markers and colored pencils.

~Copic Markers and Prismacolor Pencils~

Flowers: BV02, BV000, BV0000, RV63, RV00, RV000, RV0000 then Prismacolor 996, 994, 956, 929, 938
Flower Centers: YR23, Y15, Y11, Y00
Greens: YG63, YG61, YG13, YG01, G21, G20
Border: C4, C2, C0

My card base is 1/8″ larger than the die cut to give it the look of being layered. I added a patterned paper behind the flowers to add a little bit of visual interest. The sentiment was stamped from the Thanks Bunches Clear Stamp Set.

Fangs for being my friend

Hi friends!

I am scared to death of live bats, but this little paper version sure is cute!

This little cutie is from Crafty Meraki and is included in the stamp set called Ghoul Friends. The sentiment is from the stamp set called Ghostly Greetings.

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on X-Press It Blending Card and colored it with the following markers.

~Copics~
Bat: C6, C5, C3, C2, C1, C0, RV11, R000

I started with a 5″ square top folding card base. To that I added a black layer 4-3/4″ square, a print layer 4-1/2″ square and a striped layer 3-1/2″ square. Out of black cardstock I die cut the largest die from the My Favorite Things Stitched Jumbo Fishtail Flags Die Set. The white square measures 2-3/4″.

The black fishtail flag and the bat were attached with double sided foam tape. I added the white dots with a white gel pen.

When witches go riding

Hello everyone!

All kinds of spooky things happen when witches go riding! These adorable little witches are included in the digital stamp set called ‘Bewitching Mice‘ from StreamSide Studios. They are so busy brewing up that bubbly goo just for you!

This post is part of are having a Spook-tacular Instagram Hop today. We would love to have you join us for some fun and a chance to win. Link to my Instagram page with the hop list and rules can be found below.

I created this adorable little Halloween scene with these super fun little mice in Photoshop. Once I had all those adorable little mice where I wanted them and sized correctly, I printed it out on Neenah Solar Crest White 80# paper. Then came the fun part of watching these cuties come to life by coloring them with the following markers and pencils.

~Copics and Prismacolor Pencils~
Greens: YG17, YG03, YG01, YG00, YG0000
Mice: W4, W3, W2, W1, W0, R20, R30, R00
Cauldron: 100, W5, W7, W6, W5
Floor: E49, E29, E27, E25, E55, E31, E30
Tans: E43, E42, E41, E40
Purples: (Pencils) 995, 1009, 934, 938
Yellow-Gold: (Pencils) 1082, 1034, 942, 940, 1012, 140

I used a ruler and very lightly penciled in the brick background and then used markers and pencils to shade the bricks. I drew the pattern in the floor as I colored, crossing my fingers the whole time that it would somehow resemble wood flooring.

My card base is mini-slimline size 6-1/4″ x 3-1/2″. I trimmed my card front to 6″ x 3-1/4″ and added a black mat of 6-/8″ x 3-3/8″ before attaching it to the white card base.
