Two Lil' Halloween Cards

Hello! I thought I would bring you a couple of last minute Halloween themed cards today! For the first card I used Samantha Rawlings sweet Lil' Witch. I made a frame around her using four fancy corners cut with a Sizzix die and I tried to "connect" them on the long sides using tiny black gems. It is a little more crooked than I had hoped....but I still like the original idea!

The Details:
Stamp: Samantha Rawlings Lil' Witch - (sheet 2, Plate 62) - Sweet Pea Stamps
Paper: K&Co (I think), Black and White (Papertrey Ink)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Copics:
Skin: E000, E00,E11,R00,R20
hair: YG21,YG23,YG25,YG17
Clothes:V04,V06,V17,C5,C7,C9
Pumpklin and Car: Y15,Y17,YR16,YR18
Misc: Sizzix Corner die, Spellbinders Label Die, Taylor's Tiny Twinkles, Darice Gems

For my second card I used Elaine Cox's Little Witch Cat. I colored the image with Copics and added a little Diamond Stickles around the moon and a little Crystal Effects to the kitty's eyes. I am not sure I really love how that turned out, but it is good to try something new sometimes, right?


The Details:
Stamp: Elaine Cox's Little Witch Cat (Sheet 9, Plate 59) - Sweet Pea Stamps
Paper: Bo Bunny, Black and White (Papertrey Ink)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Copics:
Cat: W5,W7,W8,W10

New Sweet Pea Stamps!

Hello! I get to show you a sneak peek of a new Elaine Cox image that will be available at Sweet Pea Stamps soon! This is Katie and she is a slightly different style than a lot of the other Elaine Cox images Sweet Pea has carried. I love her cute, younger images, but I also think this new more mature style is very beautiful. I may have covered some of it up with my coloring, but this image is VERY detailed with a lot of gorgeous subtle shading to help guide you when coloring it.

Stamp: Elaine Cox's Katie (available soon from Sweet Pea Stamps)
Paper: Bo Bunny, Early Esspresso (SU), White (Copic XPress)

ATS Wednesday - Treat Boxes

Hello! It is time for another All That Scraps challenge and this week we would love to see some last minute Halloween Packaging. My daughter is in Girl Scouts and at her last meeting we were trying our hand at Origami. When I made this cute little Star Box (HERE is a link to a site with instructions, if you want to make one too.)I thought it would make a cute little treat box.


I took my picture without the chocolates in them because they were blocking the view of the stamped images, but I am putting a few Ghiradelli chocolates in each box. Obviously, a few more fit in the larger box which was made with an 8 inch square. The smaller one was made with a 6 inch square of paper.

The Details:
Stamps: CC Designs Swiss Pixies Halloween Hansel and Halloween Birgitta (from All That Scraps)
Paper: K&Co, White for images (Copic XPress)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Copics:
Hansel:
Skin: E000,E00,E11,R00,R20
Hair: C1,C3,C5
Clothes: C0,C1,C3,C5,C7,C9,V15,V17,V09

ATS Wednesday Challenge - Magnets!

Hello! Our challenge today at the All That Scraps Challenge Blog is to make Magnets, or Refrigerator Art!! There are two pieces of paper that I always have on my refrigerator - a shopping or "to do" list and a menu of meals to make with the groceries I bought. So I decided to make some fun magnets to hold them on the refrigerator!!

This image is called Playing With Stars and is from Plate #46. Again, I colored the image with Copic markers and then went over the background with Twinkling H2O watercolors. I used Diamond Stickles for some sparkle on the stars, the Kitty wings and the photo corners.
