SID Sept- Trick or Treat

Hello and welcome to my post for Stick it Down Sept challenge! Here is a look at the sketch...

I followed the sketch pretty closely, just added some extra bats for more fun! I used an older Stampin'up pattern paper for the background. The lacey looking bats are a current Stampin' up set called Hallows Night Magic, I just love how pretty they are with the lace look. 

The large bat is stamped directly on the card panel, while the little one is stamped and die cut as are the black ones. 

Hope you'll play along with our sketch this month you still have time to join us! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!!

Hello (FMS451)

 Hello! It's been a little bit since I've just played with a challenge other then my design teams! I was apparently double struck this weekend with some motivation and inspiration. First inspiration came from this weeks Freshly Made Sketchs sketch FMS451 

And the other half of my inspiration came from a friends color challenge on facebook, the colors were Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, Mint Macaron and Blackberry Bliss. Here is what I came up with...

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!!

MLC- Sept Santa

 It's September already... halloween and Thanksgiving will be here be for we know it! How are you doing on your Christmas card stash... are you ready for Christmas already? I know I'm not there yet, but I'm getting closer!  Here is my card for the Merry Little Christmas Challenge blog for this month.

I find this card pre die cut in my stash and thought "How have I not used this already?" No time like the present right? It made for a quick card since the die cut takes up most of the card front. I just used a piece of red cardstock on behind the card front and added a tag with a stamped message. Super simple and probably one of my favorites this year!

Be sure to check out on the blog what the team has to inspire you this month!

Thanks for stopping and have an amazing month!!!
