Create atc

Happy Mothers Day to all the amazing mothers out there!

I'm a mom to 6 furbabies, and I'm pretty sure they won't be making me dinner or bringing me flowers, but I will get hugs and kisses from them I'm sure!

Today I have a fun ATC to share with you all.  

I have recently been wanting to get back into some of the challenges that I used to participate in quite often, so I thought what better place to start than with an ATC.

There are a couple of challenges that I'll be entering this into.

I created this ATC by white embossing polka dots to the background,

then splattering some Lindys Stamp Gang Rudolphs Nose Red

Then I stamped the "Ruler," and the letters which are part of Viva Las Vegas's 

December Daily Plate 1430

Finally I stamped the butterfly with Create onto a bit of vintage dictionary page.

I got my inspiration from this photo 

Which is the inspiration photo for may from viva las vegas stamps. 

I'll be entering into their challenge found here.

Also entering into the challenge at Wicked Wednesday Challenge here 

Just us girls: Embossing

Thanks for wandering by, I hope you are having a creative weekend! 

Ghoulish fun

Happy Monday! 

I'm feeling creative today, and may just spend the whole day in the studio!

Yesterday however I only had a little small window of creative time,

I made this fun Halloween tag! 

First I stamped and embossed the background in black ink and black embossing powder to give texture. 

The image is from viva las Vegas stamps. 

Then I colored up those skull zombies from dilly beans and stamped some orange 

Card stock to make the moon! 

The background was distressed using distress inks, 

And then I just had to assemble! 

It's a sorta creepy scene, but it was fun to create!

31 days of Halloween: Day 7

For the record the party went off without a hitch, and my mother in law

Had a fabulous time... The cops even showed up and asked us to turn the music down!!

Soooo for day 7 I'm sharing this fun ATC that I made

I wanted to use my new stamp that I won from Viva Las Vegas stamps

This is a good size stamp, and I wanted to try it out on aluminum foil

So I stamped it using staz on and let it dry (so about 30 seconds)

I then wanted to color the skulls and flowers, so I pulled out my alcohol inks

And I used a paint brush (gotta work really fast)

To finish it off I added a little glitter to one of the eyeballs. 

What do you think??

Don't forget today is the halfway point of the challenge at Anything but a card

And something like this is perfect for the shine challenge going on over there!
