Friendship SSC Challenge...
I love this card as it uses my new Cuttlebug flower die.
I just added silver brads at corners and prism paper to flower centers. The fancy layers of the flowers and the simple black and white makes it very elegant. TAC stamp retired.
Wrought iron corner punch used also. Have a good week!

***Pepsi Cola Challenge for STAMPITCRAZY***
SLACKER...
Yes I know I am a big fat slacker on my blog and I have no
excuse except I love being able to do what I want whenever I
want. Soooooo I get lazy and just knit all day cook food for the week or bake brownies. Shoot me I am guilty!
Here is my card very simple for Stampitcrazy.

Monkey in the Moon...
Please don't ask, I just had this idea when I saw this pix on Craftzine.com and I always thought this stamp looked like a monkey.
The story is they told the monkey in the 60's it was a short trip "to the moon and back" but as you can see he's still there! We miss you...
TAC stamp retired set Old World Ornaments and sentiment is Bookoo Blessings T-2892.
Hope you like it, but it's as dark as I could get today. This is for HDH#19 "Moonglow".

Happy Holidays...
I am taking a break from any challenges this week. Just decided to show some of my cards I made over the last couple years. I
colored this with regular brush markers but the ornament was
done with a water brush and marker. Added silver starlight gel to circles and top with dimensional glaze. I think the image is inkadinkado???
Anyway see ya next week, stay happy!!!

I got as dark as I could get with this one....
I used orange cardstock from DCWV, distressed the front by applying tape and peeling away layers and scruffing up with burnt umber ink,
random scorbug and scor-pal used. Hat was stamped on white cardstock and I drew melted area in green and cut-out and glued to card front.
T-3039 Pumpkin Day (retired) was used for hat and witching you, the rest of saying was stamped on clear sticker sheet trimmed close and stuck to card. I was stumped for this challenge, but had a couple cards in my head and got them done Fri. nite watching Medium on CBS. I hope you get the pun!

Gold Greetings to all...
Here is my card for SSC, which had to have weaving. I used DCWV cardstock for base and scored with scor-pal and scor-bug on sides.
Distressed the card edges too. I used Nesties Label #1 for the gold dotted-swiss embossed and
green DCWV cardstock. All strips are same cardstock used for weaving and cut out with scalloped oval Nestie. TAC stamp sets are the Holly from T-1253 Christmas Fun and the Merry Christmas Oval R-2721 (both sets retired).
I embossed the Merry Christmas Oval with detail gold powder on white bristol board cut out and touched edges with burnt umber ink. The Holly was embossed with black detail powder on Bristol board and colored with Marvy brush Markers and stardust red and green pens from Sakura. I took my time getting the idea as it is the middle of the week, but I think it was worth it. I am liking my own work and may have to make several more. What do you think?
