House of Cards October Challenge

Welcome to the CAS challenge for this month at House of Cards. This month we are asking us to use a punch or a die in our creations. What could be easier than that? I choose to do a Halloween card for this, using an Tim Holtz die.



I did a bit of sloppy sponging around the ghost face and mounted it onto black card stock. Since it was so super easy and quick to make this card I also decorated the inside:


The sentiment stamp is by Stampin' up, the bats are from Rubbernecker. 

If you dare you could come on over - our team has some fabulous inspiration in store for you!


Booohahahah!

I am also linking this card with Virginia's view challenge #8 - CAS
and The Paper Players - Halloween

I love how you inked the image and the inside is great, too. Love the clean and simple lines of the card as they really let the ghost shine. Thanks for rocking my challenge at the Paper Players this week

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
