Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Spooktacular Sale

Sorry for the late post, my printer was not cooperating with me.  This was such a quick and easy card to make.   A follower had asked me how I made the moon in the tree line on an older card so I decided to do it again on this card.  I merely printed my image on white cs, held a circular piece in the tree line and then used Stampin Up Night of Navy chalk, making circular motions with my chalk applicator, covering everything except the space beneath the circle.  This awesome scene is from the Creepy Crow Set from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff.  I added the ghost, skull and spider along with the fun lace ribbon from JoAnns.  I used some Ranger's Tim Holtz Distress Ink Weathered Wood around the outside of the print.
Be Sure to stop by Lindsay's Stamp Stuff for the 30% off sale and also stop by her blog The Frugal Crafter for this weeks tips and a Freebie.
See more awesome inspiration thom the LSS design Team.

Crafty Secrets Friendship and Flowers

I made this card for the Crafty Secrets Challenge I am co hosting at Paper Craft Planet.  The challenge is Flowers,  please stop by and see what the other Crafty Secrets lovers have made.  I found this fun challenge site on my  friend Mona's blog, it is called
2 Sketches 4 You  it is hosted by Kazan Clark and Laura Davis.  I used their fab sketch to make this card, I'm not sure if I can post their sketch here, so you will have to go check it out.  I would also like to enter this into the Let your Garden Grow challenge to make  DIY flowers at Quixotic Challenges.  I actually bought the lovely little pearl centers for my flowers at Quixotic Paperie, and I am in love with them.  And last but not least my friends at Order of the Opus Gluei are hosting a challenge to use ribbon in a different way.  This is a 5 x 7 card, I used Memory Botique cs, Crafty Secrets Friendship and Flowers image, velvet ribbons and rhinestone lace are from JoAnns.  I embossed the cs with Cuttlebug A2  Japanese Scales embossing folder, I cut the flowers with Cricut Pagoda, colored them in with Niji Pearlescent Watercolor Set and set Quixotic Flat Backed Pearls - 4mm - Cappucino - in the centers.  Thanks for looking, ~Diane

Lauren's Wedding Shower Card




I used the Wonderful Wings stamp from Stampin Up to make this card, I never get tired of the beautiful butterflies in this set. I used chalk on the wings and a gold filigree pen on the body. I stamped the image on vellum, in white ink. I made this for a friends daughter, for a wedding shower, her wedding colors were sage green and pink. I used the Stampin Up sage shadow, with the new Pirroutte Pink (I love this color). Sorry I went crazy with the photo's, but I wanted to show how I cut about an inch and a half off the front bottom of the card. You can see the lace from the inside of the card when you close the card. I mounted the lace on a strip of pink and used double face tape to mount it to the white card. I saw this floral trim in the fabric section of JoAnns, and I had to get it. I hadn't planned out the card yet but I knew it was meant for a card, not a dress. Very well worth the 2.99 a yard price, I think it makes the card. I cut For Lauren with the Cricut Expression. I will try to post more often in the future, and thanks for looking.
