"Boo" Halloween Card

This A2 sized card was made using a 3 inch round punch for the moon, a cat punch by Martha Stewart, a "Boo" sentiment from the Happy Hauntings cartridge, and a crooked fence from the Mini Monsters cartridge.  I also used deckle edge scissors on the edges of the card for a spookier effect.

Doodlecharms Cards


I am soo in the mood to make cards that are in fall colors and themes right now, as it is "fall" here in Alaska already.  These two cards were made using the apple from the Doodlecharms cartridge and the label behind the apple is from the Elegant Edges Cartridge for the top card, and the postage stamp style label is from the new Art Philosophy Cartridge from Close to My Heart.

Elegant Edges "Thanks!" Card

The paper for this card is from Martha Stewart and the label and shadow are cut from the Elegant Edges Cartridge.  Also, the orange border is punched from a Martha Stewart border punch. Finally, I added a chipboard sticker that closely resembled the ones in the patterned paper.

Create a Critter Card

Another simple and cute Create-A-Critter card, using the Sun from the cartridge.  The clouds are from a couple different sized punches and the banner is a die from spellbinders.

Doodlecharms Cartridge card

I love the simplicity of this card and the shade of yellow being a little darker than you would expect.  The yellow cardstock is Bazzill and I embossed it with the seeing spots embossing folder for the cuttlebug.  The sentiment is from Hero Arts, and the banner die cut is from spellbinders.  The heart is a cut from the Doodlecharms cricut cartridge.
