Halloween Overlay from Creative Kuts

Happy Tuesday!

Today on my blog I want to show you my

Halloween overlay from Creative Kuts!

This is one of the many new overlays 

that Cheryl has designed!

This overlay is last week's bap!

I used my spider web embossing folder on CTMH paper 

and then sanded it so the white inner core would pop through.

I added some buttons.... a little black cat and trick or treat!

You have to check out Creative Kuts Posts 

on facebook!

Tips and Techniques Tuesday from All That Stickles!

Today I want to show you a few ways to accent and embellish with Stickles!

I actually used Stickles to add embellishments  to my sentiment...

I added dimension to my patterned paper..

and I added black Stickles to the middle of the sunflower

 then added microbeads to the Stickles..

Here is my Sunflower ... I coloured it then added layers

 then of course I added  Mustard Seed Stickles...

See the dimension the Stickles adds!

Here is the patterned paper before..

Its pretty... love it...

Here is the patterned paper after adding Goldren Rod Stickles..

I just zigged and zagged all over the paper..

then I decided to do a loose border around the whole thing...

Here is my sentiment ...

with Goldren Rod Stickles

3 accent dots...

I just love Stickles to add to my projects!!!

Remember to check out our current All That Stickles Linky Party..

It`s all about Appreciation....

Pinque Peacock is on my blog today.....

Hope everyone is having a safe and fun holiday weekend!

I am working this weekend so I am not doing much 

but playing with my pretties from Pinque Peacock.

Don`t you just love the pretty pink fabric covered button...

and its layered on a elegant floral... which is made with 

crinkle ribbon from  3 Girl Jam.

The digi is from Skdigis...

Its called Bird House Crawling with Ivy...

Copics are ... E35,33,37 RV19, R85,G05,09

I added stickles to the leaves...lime green..

I cut out leaves and pop dotted them to add dimension.

I added antique linen distress ink to all the layers..

I used my MS leaf corner punch.

The sentiment is computer generated.

I used craft cardstock and some vineyard berry colour..

I also used the Chevron Embossing Folder from Darice.

You can also buy this from Pinque Peacock.

This card will be added to SKdigi's linky party..

Pinque Peacock - My First Design Team Post

Happy Saturday Everyone...

Today I have two posts for you...

For the All That Stickles Linky Party post go here....

Today is my first post for Pinque Peacock...

I am so thrilled to be on this design team.. I can't even tell you..

All the pretties (as I call them) are amazing...

Check out the store here..... and today is the last day of the 

Back To School sale...so check it out!!!!

My first project is a layout I redid for my Uncle Ken's Celebration of Life.
I totally redid this layout  .... and then when I got my goodies from Jessica
I knew the pin was perfect for this layout.... It's an angel pin...
This picture is the twins... My Dad and Uncle Ken.

The paper is from CTMH...

Flourish is a die... my favorite I think..

some buttons from a kit from Up The Street Scrapbooking..

My next project is a washi tape holder that I made myself.

I saw this on facebook somewhere.(sorry I dont' know where)

I cut off the top..

I covered with some pretty paper I had in my stash..

I eyeballed it and then scored it to make it easier to fit..

I added my favorite flourish.. and my new bird flourish...

Then added the Big Fabric button from Pinque Peacock...

Isn't it just gorgeous...

I love all the pretty buttons that Jessica has available..

I also love the pins...all the pretty pins...

and the ribbon flowers...

and the felt flowers..

I could go on and on... just go and check out the store

and you will see!!!!
