Color Hues Challenge #120 - Purple and Orange - Have A Hauntingly Good Time (Craft-O-Ween, Day 4)

Hello,

Welcome to Colour Hues Challenge #120, where our lovely hostess, Stef, has selected hues of Purple and Orange as our inspiration for the next two weeks. A fabulous combination, I'm sure you'll agree, especially if you're a fan of Halloween.

We're delighted to have Bobby as our guest designer for this challenge. 

Guess what: yet another showcase of cute dies from my Spellbinders' Craft-O-Ween box. This little ghost is the star of the stage and is one of my favourites from the collection. He's extra dapper with his top hat and BOO banner.

Please head over to the main blog to see amazing creativity from Bobby and the rest of my wonderful team. Then, bring out your hues of purple and orange and join us in the gallery.

The challenge will be open until October 29th at 9:00am EST.

The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall

 winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.

Thank you for dropping by!

Just Us Girls Challenge #797 - Mood Board Week - October Leaves (Simply Stated Designs)

 Hello,

A warm welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #797 where, as hostess, I've selected a poster style mood board as inspiration for this week's challenge. Filled with an assortment of Fall-themed images and colours, I'm sure you'll find one - or perhaps several - ideas to spark your creativity.

Once again, we're delighted to have  Greta Hess joining us as our October Guest Designer.

The leaves and  the 'scattered images' design of the poster caught my eye, so I replicated both with my card, using Autumn Splendor ephemera and a sentiment from Simply Stated Design.  The sentiment: so true. 

Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from Greta and my teammates.

Looking forward to seeing your mood-board inspired cards/projects in the gallery.

Thank you for dropping by!

AAA Cards Challenge #301 - Anything CAS Goes - Optional Twist - Greys (monochrome) - Magic and Mischief Await (Craftoween Day 7)

Hello,

Welcome to AAA Cards Challenge #301 where our theme for the next two weeks is:  Anything CAS Goes, with an optional twist of Greys. Grey is such a versatile colour; after all, it comes in at least 50 shades (LOL!).

I decided that my stack of books, from Day 7 of my Spellbinders Craft-O-Ween box, would convey a spooky vibe in all grey. What do you think?

Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from my teammates.

Then, create an Anything CAS Goes card to share in the gallery. Grey is optional, but if you have it, we'd love to see it!

Inkspirational Challenge #352 - Seasonal - Halloween Cards - Simply Stated Design Halloween Advent Calendar

Hello,

Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #352 where SEASONAL is our theme for the next two weeks. Please head over to the main blog for ideas on what we're looking for with this challenge. In a nutshell, we'd like you to pair a SEASON with an OCCASION; for example, winter + Christmas; fall + Thanksgiving or Halloween, etc. 

I'm a big fan of Simply Stated Designs and, since October 1st, have been thoroughly enjoying the daily delights found in their Halloween Advent Calendar. Today, My cards today feature the XL Ephemera found on Day 6. These images are huge, wonderfully detailed and whimsically fun. Even though most people would use them for scrapbooking, scrapbooking is not my thing, so I card-ified them.  The cards range in size from A6 to 6 x 6 to A2, depending on the image and how much trimming I was inclined to do. Honestly, they're just too pretty to cut! LOL! 

Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from my team, then join us. Can't wait to see what SEASON + OCCASION card/project you'll bring to the gallery.

Thank you for dropping by!

Color Hues Challenge #119 - Rust and Yellow - Season of Thanks (Concord and 9th)

Hello,

Welcome to Colour Hues Challenge #119  where Marcia, our hostess, has selected Rust and Yellow as inspiration for the next two weeks. Autumn vibes for sure - but plenty of other seasons/occasions also come to mind.

I went all in with a fall theme, using an older stamp and die set from Concord & 9th. Altenew and Taylored Expressions inks and a snippet of rust paper from a Tim Holtz collection in my stash made creating the card quite easy to create.

Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from my teammates, then join us in the gallery with your Rust and Yellow cards/projects.

The challenge will be open until Tuesday, Oct. 14th @ 9:00AM.

The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall

 winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.
