It's WORLD Card Making Day peeps!!

In honor of the day, I made a dozen of these puppies.  I had intended to make twenty and send twenty until I remembered, all the grandbabies got this card LAST year.  So, I only made a dozen.  Now, I have to make something different for them, right?!

 

So, I found this previously purchased image in my Silhouette Library.  Perfect, eh?!!  Needs a sentiment though, I think.  Well, maybe, maybe not?  Thoughts?

 

I'm off to craft all day with a friend.  Of course, that is if I can get all my stuff in the car without getting completely drenched.  It's a great day to be inside.  Just not a great day to get all that stuff inside someone ELSE'S house... LOL.  We may not be making cards but I'm sure I'll come home with LOTS of things that will become cards... :)

 

Have a GREAT Card Making Day peeps!!

Happy Halloween...

 

This card came to me in a dream last Holloween... scary, eh?!!  This is one I designed myself.  Creating from scratch is not my forte.  I am usually the "Queen of CASEing"... lol.  So, when I thought this out from start to finish, I was very proud of myself...

 

How did I do this, you ask?  I started with watercolor paper since it's one of my favorite mediums for it's weight and texture.  I distressed with Tim Holtz' spiced marmalade distress ink and then dry embossed with the Stampin' Up web folder.  Using the vintage photo distress ink, I lightly distressed over the web to help it stand out.  A distress tool is used around the edges.  The sentiment is heat embossed with black ink and clear embossing powder and popped with dimensionals.  I made a dozen for my current box to Operation Write Home which will be shipping in a couple days...
