Be Inspired Wednesday #55

Welcome back to another Be Inspired Wednesday at Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot!!  This week we are using clear stamps from My Favorite Things and the stamp I used is from the series 'Whose That Girl?' called 'By The Seashore'. The sentiment is also part of the set. To color in the stamp, I used General's Chalk pencils and gamsol.  The blue background was done with chalk.

Provo Craft embossing folder 'Bird Call' was used on the Core'dinations cardstock.  Other cardstock used is DCWV.

Be sure to check out what the Design Team has for you this week!!

Be Inspired Wednesday #54

Welcome back to Be Inspired Wednesday at Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot! This week I received some super fun Halloween cardstock from Basic Grey that was perfect for what I wanted to do.  Also, our featured sponsor this week is Tattered Angels and for that I received several pieces of chipboard with the 'bingo' card being the one I knew would fit right on my page.

Using DCWV cardstock, I sprayed with Dreamsicle Tattered Angels to give my background paper a one of a kind look.  Using my Cricut machine and the Paper Dolls cartridge, I cut the spider, spider web and tree. Cuttlebug corner punch was used and the tag was embossed with my Cuttlebug Harlequin embossing folder.  I played around with my PSP program getting my photo to have that 'ghost' look to it!! I wanted the tree branches and spider web to accent Nina's eyes!!

Sunflowers and Dragonflies Challenge #12

Pull out the ATC size and create!!..I love doing ATCs because they are small and I get a quick satisfaction from doing them.

It's been a while since I used my Asian wood stamps so I thought I would do something with them.  Using black cardstock, the lady and branches were embossed with gold embossing powder from Custer's Last Stamp, Inc. Corners were punched using my Marvy punch and then metallic gold thread was used. Just to give my lady a little color, I used my Sharpie red pen to color in some of the flowers.  Once I was done, I felt like it needed something, so I grabbed my Moon Glow's Glitz Spray (Medieval Gold) that I've had for about 4 years!! I gave it one good spray.  Still something was missing...I took a cream color satin ATC and bordered the edges with my gold American Crafts metallic marker.  Adhered the two together and I knew I was done!!

Thank you Beth, for having another great challenge at Sunflowers and Dragonflies

Be Inspired Wednesday #52

Welcome to Be Inspired Wednesday! I want you to meet Wilma the Witch; isn't she the cutest?! Our sponsor this week is Digital Delights By LoubyLoo.  Wilma is a digital that your can color in with various mediums to give her the look you want.  For my Wilma, I used my Copics and decided to break away from the obvious colors of purple and black.
The cat and top bat are wooden pieces I bought last year and found them in my fall/halloween bin. Orange and black cardstock is from Core'dinations and embossed with the Harlequin ProvoCraft embossing folder. The borders are from Creative Imaginations.
Be sure to stop by Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot to see what our Design Team has for you this week.  Don't forget to show us your Fall or Halloween card by using Mr. Linky to link it for us to see.

Thank you Wendy, from Digital Delights and Core'dinations for being such great sponsors!!

Just Rite Stampers

Just Rite Stampers is our sponsor for October at Have Your Way With Paper and I'm so excited to be showing their cool stamps!..The two sets I received are Christmas Something Sweet and Birthday Wishes. 

This was done for a tag swap I'm in at Paper. I made this using the Christmas border and Birthday center. Normally, I would be popping the layers, but kept it simple for easy envelope mailing..:)

Here is a card I made using both the border and inside stamp from Birthday Wishes.  The yellow paper is from a pack I have, DCWV and the printed paper is ColorBok

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

At Have Your Way With Paper, I have a card challenge going on under the forum "Pink For The Girls".

The challenge is to make a card for a friend and on the card put October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Your friend need not be a survior.

Here are two cards I did today using Wendy's 'Maggie', from Digital Delights.  This was a freebie from Friday!! Thank you, Wendy!! All I had to do was size it and cut; she was all colored in!!
