Sending Monster Hugs.....

Happy Tuesday everyone !!! 

I wanted to stop by and share this fun card and treat holder set I created . 

I used the super cute Monster Mash stamp set by Lawn Fawn . 

I am apologizing ahead of time for all of the photos.

I am fairly new to DSLR cameras and I am still trying to decide 

if I like to how my photos come out indoor as opposed to outdoors,lol  . 

  I was inspired to use the magenta with the orange combo ,

after a recent Michaels haul .

I purchased the glittery ribbon in these two colors ,

I LOVE how they look together . 

I also created this fun little treat container to hold 

lollipops or in my case chocolate covered marshmallow pop . 

I used Heidi Swapp Color Shine 

in

Raspberry 

along with 

Stephanie Barnard 

Tangerine Spray (super intense color) 

to create the background for my little monsters. 

I colored them in using my Copic markers . 

I had to try a couple o different color combinations 

in order to have them match my colors . 

I hope you enjoy my fun little card and treat set . 

Thank you soo much for stopping by ! 

Wishing you a wonderful and 

Blessed day !!

Happy Monday everyone !!! 

I am so excited to share with you 

that Craftin' Desert Divas is

Woo~ Hoo !!! 

It really makes creating with these images easy and fun ! 

I created this card 

using the 

Ornament Puppy Image : 

  I colored my images in using Copic markers .

I also added a bit of 3D effect by using my 

Deco Art Snow Writer 

to the ornament and the puppy. 

I finished it off by adding my two must haves 

sequins and a bow . 

I hope you enjoy my card and feel inspired to create !!

I couldn't wait to use this adorable little scarecrow image again 

(after I made him into a zombie/Frankenstein)

Happy Sunday everyone !!!

 Wow.... this month sure is flying by !
Especially with there being 6 birthdays this month
(2 of my sons, my sisters, my brother in law , my nephew and my niece ) !

I wanted to stop by and share this set of cards
I created after being super inspired by the 

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge .

 I really love the inspiration board ! 

I created these cards using the pumpkins from CDD stamps
(love these pumpkin images ) . 

I wanted to use my Tim Holtz Distress Markers to color these in . 

I ended up liking the Ripe Persimmon, Spiced Marmalade and Wild Honey 

combination. 

For my purple leaves I used Seedless Preserves and Black Soot mixed . 

For the second card I used my Copics
(the one with the purple layer) . 

I am having fun with these quick little cards .

I hope you are enjoying my take on the inspiration photo . 

Thank you so much for stopping by ! 

Wishing you a wonderful and Blessed day !
