Scarry Spider

I spent the evening with my friend Joyce & her Mom. While the charcoals were heating up, we created a couple of cards. First, let me just say, Joyce is the Queen of Stamps, & I mean that in the best possible way. She just loves everything about it! I love being a part of it. This is the first card I designed using the MOJO Monday Sketch Week 101.

Thank You Blair

I want to say a special thank you to my neice, Blair, for stopping by the other night. We reconnected recently via Facebook & texted each other Monday night. What a treat that was as we hadn't talked in such a long time. School was starting back up the next day - her first day as a Senior in High School. I hope this year is a fabulous one for her, I know mine was.

Simply Beautiful

I saw this card on another blog & simply had to CASE (copy & share everything) it. When I find her name, I'll post it back here.

Halloween is a Hoot

This is a MOJO Monday sketch - number 102. I sort of used this week's technique challenge at Splitcoaststampers, also. The number is TLC235.

I used Magic Mesh & laid it on the Orange cs, then using a sponge paint brush and some yellow acrylic paint, brushed over the the mesh.

Stamps - Halloween is a Hoot
