Sept SID



My take on the sketch this month! I had a scrap piece of paper that was a scrap of water color paper that had been colored. I decided to see how well it would die cut and loved the look of the  colored bats. I then glued the bats to some shiny black cardsotck.



Just love the way they turned out, I may try it again with other colors.


Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you over on the SID blog for this months challenge!

MLC Sept

 Hello all! It's September, all ready... can you believe it?!!! I know I can't. I don't mind really, September is a great month and means fall is just around the corner... and it's my favorite season. It also means we are on a count down to Christmas and I still have plenty of cards to make to be ready for it! 
It also means it's the start of a new challenge over at Merry Little Christmas... which is as always ANYTHING GOES!!!  As long as it's Christmas of course. This month I used one stamp and created two cards. 

My first card I stamped and colored with copics before fussy cutting the image out and popping it up with some foam tape. I then stamped the sentiment under the image on the card panel and added it to a yellow card base. I know yellow isn't a Christmas color per say, but it did look good with the yellow color in the image.


Now for the second card, I stamped the image 3 times (once on the card base) and used a "light" hand with the coloring. I then fussy cut the layers and adhered them on top of the card base, for a slight raised look and a little more depth to the shadowy areas.


As always thanks for stopping by and checking out my cards ,  Can't wait to see what you create this month! Have a great day!!!
