GCFAOS # 3


I love haloween and decided that since our 3rd GCFAOS 3rd Challenge would be one of my last times I could use a halloween design I decided to use my SSS kit to do it.  I just loved this kit, all of the cuteness that was enclosed was amazing and the price is such a bargain for all you get.  I did not use the glossy black paper included but used the spellbinder brushed black cardstock instead.  I love this stuff, It is such a beautiful and high quality cardstock.  If you havent used it I highly recommend it because I think you will love it too.  My 10 year old daughter came in as I was working and asked to color too so she stamped the skull and ghost and colored both and they were so good I used them both and my jack o lantern on the inside...  I did cover up alot of my glitter paper and wish I had not covered that up so much but love the overall look regardless.

Beautiful Blossoms challenge


I made this card using honeybee stamps winter watercolor and matching dies.  I also used the re inkers on the baby wipe  method to get the colors mixed, then stamped my floweres in daffodil delight, wild wheat and pumpkin pie inks, the foliage was next and I used old olive and lost lagoon.  After I completed my stamping I used the matching dies to cut each image out and on a 4 1/4 x 11 pc of night of navy cardstock scored at 5 1/2 and then cut all but 1/4 inch off of the front and on a see through panel arranged my front how I wanted and then used press and seal to hold it all together, applied a strong adhesive to hold the individual pieces together and then attached it all as one piece to the top of the night of navy no that 1/4 inch tab.  I used my glimmer to foil the just a note from the essestinal glimmer sentimates also from spellbinders.  I will finish with a sentimate inside with a white piece of white cardstok adhered so I can also write a message.  I will be submitting to the following challenges
