Case Study Challenge 115

I made this card for the challenge over at Case Study where the theme is rainbowish.  I thought it would be easy, but turned out to be much harder then I expected.  But here it is!

I cut the leaf from the Designer's Calender cricut cartridge.  Any thoughts?

Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge

I'm entering this little darling in the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge SSSC171.  I'm really enjoying the Authentique paper lines this holiday season.  This one is the Festive line.  I saw a card on pinterest that sparked this design for me.  My biggest fear in life is birds, but I love how pretty they are, strange, right?

Anyhow, I cut the little birdie from the Winter Wonderland cricut cartridge along with the branch and used the cuttlebug to create the embossing on the background paper.

OCCC - Our creative corner challenge - Ice Skater

I saw this challenge over at Our Creative Corner and flipped out because I had just got finished with this card and it fit their challenge to a tee!  I guess great minds think alike after all.  Anyhow, I have had this image in my mind all day and wanted to work in this beautiful paper I found from Authentique collection:  Peaceful.  It is so gorgeous and is the inspiration for the theme of this years christmas decorating for me.

I found the silhouette on the Winter Wonderland cricut cartridge and the rest of the shapes on the card are from the new Artiste CTMH cart.  Hope you enjoy!

Lantern - Halloween

And this is also from Over the Hill!  Very basic, but used in my mantel decorations, it looks so complicated and spooky!

Haunted mansion

As you can tell, still having fun with the October 31st cartridge!  The card shape is from Birthday Bash.
 

Bag of bones card - Halloween

This was such a fun card to make.  I used the Over the Hill cartridge, drink wrap cut and RIP cut.  And for the bones I used the October 31st cartridge, which is a Lite cartridge with some awesome cuts for Halloween!  The paper I got from Michael's.  It's a 12 X 12 K&C Company book of spooky papers and every one of them is great!

Halloween Decor - Over the Hill

Well, I've been making all sorts of decorations and cards for Halloween.  I made this urn looking vase (I'm sure there's a proper term for it) from the Over the Hill cartridge.  I made the pumpkin from 1 inch strips of paper and used it to decorate my mantel.  I don't know about you, but I love halloween!
