Yo Chick

 Hello Everyone,
Today, I have a super cute chickee card.  The little chick was colored with watercolor markers and fussy cut. Pretty quick to make and sure to bring a smile.  Who could not smile at that cut chickee?  

So glad you stopped by.  See you next time for more Halloween cards.

Halloween Cards

 Hello Everyone,
Well, I thought I better get busy posting my Halloween cards...before it is no longer Halloween. LOL  

Stamps are from a Stampin Up set I bought last year.  The front of the card has a smaller card attached with a scary little surprise inside!

This is the shocking, scary guy inside the small card.  Well, not too scary really.  He was colored with Copic markers and die cut.  

Inside of card: Some stamps from my stash.  Happy Halloween from Technique Junkies.  Don't worry from Victorine Originals.

Entering this card in a new year round Halloween challenge blog called

Two Old Bats  Halloween Challenge: anything Halloween

Made about 10 of the cards.  All are a little different. I will have more of the cards next week.  See you then!

Die Cut Envelope Embellishment

Hello Everyone!

Today, I have a collection of cards I made be using a die cut envelope as the focal point.  I cut it from Kraft cs and made a tag to go in the envelope.  I cut four pieces of decorative paper for the background and added a metallic doily cut into pieces.

Here is the tag that I made to go into the envelope.  Also added a sentiment to the tag. 

The butterflies are some stickers I found at the dollar store.  Work so well with the rest of the card.  

Same design in green.  

This one in navy and red.

This is what is on the inside of the cards.

Really fun project.  They will be sent out to friends and family.  Just a little pick me up.  

See you next time.

Bird rub On Card

 Hello Everyone,

Here is a quick card I made using a rub on I had in my stash.  I added a bunch of die cut shapes for layering and some black/white decorative paper. 

Used teal for the accent color on one of the die cut circles and the ribbon.

Added a little distress ink the edges of the image.  

Fun card for an every day occasion.  It is in my to send box.  

So glad you stopped by today.  See next time for a collection of cards that have a die cut envelope for the focal point.
