Happy Halloween!

Hey!

Happy Halloween to y'all! Hope you are all enjoying a few Trick or Treat Spooky Sweets! I sure have had my fill, it's raining here and windy too so we only had a couple of treaters knock at the door, which means all the more for me! LOL!

Anyway, I thought I'd pop in this evening with my last Halloween card for this year...




I used a few Uniko Studio digital products to make this hybrid card and used the current Freshly Made Sketch seen HERE and below for the layout of my card. 




I've been asked by a couple of customers about colouring images digitally so I am working on a couple of video tutorials this week to hopefully share with you at the weekend. 

That's all from me today though so Happy Haunting & stay safe!
Hugs

No Tricks Here...

Hey!

I'm getting into the Halloween spirit in the Studio, but there are NO Tricks here just Treats! My little treat for you today is a glittery spider web card...




For my card I used a few Uniko Studio digital products: EEK! Digital Stamp Collection, Classics Halloween & Super FREE Saturday BOO! I also used Uniko Studio's Wonderful Washi stamp set. I used the current ColourQ challenge colours HERE and seen below for my card, however instead of Tangerine Tango I used Pumpkin Pie.




This card is quite busy for me a CAS girl with all the pattern & layering, stepping out of my comfort zone ever so slightly! Once I had made the card I felt it needed some sparkle so I added a huge amount of Star Dust Stickles to the spider web. 




Seeing this glittery spider web reminded me of the spider webs I saw on my Monday morning walk to Slimming World, which were covered in dew making them stand out. 

This reminds me to mention a little bit about Slimming World. I've been going to SW for 38 weeks now & have lost 3 stone 5 1/2 pounds since I started & I feel amazing :) Other than just telling you about my achievement I wanted to tell you that Slimming World is NOW in the US & Canada.

That's all from me today, I'll be back again tomorrow with more to share. Thanks for stopping by.

Addicted to mini cards!

Hey!

I'm back today with two mini cards to share with you, these mini cards are a cute 11 x 11 cm square. They might be mini cards but this is a not so mini blog post! 

With the foggy cold mornings starting to appear Autumn is really upon us and as I gaze out of the Studio window as the Autumn sunlight breaks through the clouds it really shows up the warm colours of the leaves on the trees. 

Such a beautiful sight, so, when I saw the current DYSU challenge seen HERE and below my card I knew I wanted to make a card & this is what I came up with...






I started out by choosing 3 SU! colours, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red & Summer Sun. I then used the smaller outline leaf from Pure Florals: Gerbera & stamped it in each of the 3 colours. After fussy cutting them out I adhered them to the lower right corner of a piece of Kraft CS and secure with a twine tied button. The 'Thanks' sentiment is from Label Love: Thank you.

Here is a close up of the detail...




I am also entering this card into the Moxie FAB World WCMD Thank you Challenge HERE

I've got a second card to share with you today...




Whilst sorting my desk out I came across this BOO! label I had printed but not used from the Super FREE Saturday BOO! collection available for download HERE. I decided to use the current Play Date Cafe Challenge colours seen HERE and below which are just perfect for a Halloween card! 




I paired the label with some die cut banners which I stamped with 2 designs from Wonderful Washi. This shows how even more versatile the stamps from Wonderful Washi are! Below is a close up of the detail...




You can just about see in the photo above the Silver Stickles glitter glue that I added to the arch of stars. This card also fits perfectly into the current Addicted to Stamps Challenge HERE which is Addicted to Halloween. I'm more addicted to Halloween this year than ever before & I'm looking forward to the night itself to all the cute lil kids dressed up Trick or Treating! 

Well, it's been a treat for you today as I've had two cards to share and it's been a while since I've been this creative in one day!! Lets hope the trend continues. 

Thank you for stopping by & as always your comments are truly appreciated.
Hugs

BOO! It's Super FREE Saturday!

Hey!

Happy Weekend & Happy Super FREE Saturday! Yep, thats right it's time for the second Super FREE Saturday digital collection, it's available HERE on the website.

So lets get straight to it...




Boo! is a graphic Halloween/Autumn collection featuring 4 paper designs and 4 images both in a brush & PNG format. The colours like all my digital collections coordinate with Stampin' Up! The SU! colours in this collection are Pumpkin Pie, Lucky Limeade, Elegant Eggplant & Basic Grey.

This collection has SO many possibilities & coordinates perfectly with the previously released EEK! digital download collection available HERE. Plus the Halloween digital paper collections HERE and HERE.

How about a card...



I decided to make a square card 14 x 14 cm and used the current Freshly Made Sketch challenge sketch HERE and seen below for the layout of my card. Now, I wanted to tell you a little bit about the size of this 'Scary Boo! Pumpkin tag/label and so that's why I chose this image for my card from the collection. 




Up to now all the round images either in the Uniko Studio Clear Stamp Sets or digital collections coordinate with a 1 3/4" circle punch. This tag in this collection is set at the right size to coordinate with a 2 1/2" circle punch or die. 

On my card I have cut the image out by hand and layered it onto the PTI Limitless Layers 2 1/2" circle die and scallop die. If I had punched my printed image out with a 2 1/2" circle punch there would be a white border and I would have only matted it to the scallop circle for my card. So, basically my card shows the options available for this image! 

Here's a close up...





This card also fits perfectly into the current DYSU challenge which is to use Scallops, check the challenge out HERE.

I'd love to see what you all create using this freebie collection so just add your link in the tool below & I'll pop by to see it & leave a comment :) 



Have fun & enjoy the rest of your weekend. I'll be back again tomorrow with more to share with this collection. Thanks for stopping by!
