Amy’s Trick or Treat Princess…

I’ve had this card started for a couple weeks…finally got it almost finished earlier in the week but today was “the day” to get it on the brown!  lol  I know,  I use a lot of “brown”!  I like it!  An adorable image by Amy Young for CC Designs… the cutest Baby Trick or Treater.   I hope you can see the detail in this awesome tree die cut too… I’ll post a close up.  Awesome woodgrain (brown) lol!   The grass and the ABC frame are cut on my old original Cricut.  I love the Graphically Speaking cartridge… lots of fun stuff that I have yet to cut!  Martha Stewart’s fence border punch.  The pattern paper is by Bo Bunny and the teeny apples are a Fiskars hand held apple punch.

The close up…

I used the same color combos I always use… boring… hehe  Hair – E50, YR31, 23,24,  Dress – R24, 27, 29, 59,  Skin – E000, 00, 01, itty bitty bit of E21 and I can’t remember what I used on her cheeks this time.  I figure I did good to remember this much! lol

Autumn Tilda…

I love this Tilda,  I think she looks rather like a Pilgrim and the little pumpkins are so charming!  I also love the color pencil coloring of Moni HERE,  so today I attempted to get her “look” with copics. hmmmmmm… She does magic with pencils and OMS!!!  I kinda felt like I was creating mud! lol  I’m happy with my brown, brown card though….as long as we don’t put Moni’s beside mine!!!!!!!

I used the Just Magnolia Challenge Blog Sketch for my card and the panel with Tilda on it was perfect for scoring on the left to create a fold.  When you lift the “thank you” tab on the right, the panel comes up… I know…way too easy but that’s all I could do today!!! lol  I always enjoy Dawny P’s sketches! Linking up to Totally Papercrafts Challenge Blog Stampin For the Weekend Challenge Blog, Stampin’ B’s Challenge blog, the themes are Fall.

Here’s a couple more photos of the fold side and then the tab side…

Tilda – Circle Nestabilities – thank you sentiment – I like to edge all the papers and card-stock with Distress ink – Scored with the Martha Stewart scoreboard – Pattern Paper  – Martha Stewart branch edge punch – SEI button – cord from JoAnn’s –  the card is 6×6 in. square.

Happy Friday!  Thanks for stopping by!

Free Wheelin’ Wally…

Isn’t Wally the cutest turtle ever to hit the sidewalk?!  Today the All That Scraps DT is reviewing the Cuddle crew and Sugar stamps,  part of CC Designs October release, HERE.  I really enjoyed coloring Wally and I used the Sweet Stop Sketch for this week.  I missed Saturday!  So here’s my take on it today.  I used the new Basic Grey Wander Paper,  HERE.

Here’s Wally up close…

I think he wants us to get out of his way! lol  Six of our grandchildren (Heather and Ben’s) were over Sunday afternoon.  The oldest is ten and imagine my surprise when I came outside and he was riding my bike!!!  oh my, he can’t be but he is!  tall enough!!!   It was a fun afternoon,  youngest is 15 months and wow!  he can kick the ball good!  So CUTE!  He’ll be riding a bike before we know it too! They grow up so fast!  A funny about Corrin (the 15 mo.old) – I wonder if Heather has read a book about living in a tree… oh Pooh or the Berenstain Bears or something.  Corrin loved looking at this one tree in the neighbor’s parking….it’s an old one and looked like there could be an opening at the bottom… he had to examine that and then look up to the tippy top for quite a while too,  a couple different times! It’d be fun to know what he was thinking! lol

Have fun reviewing the October stamps… and get this…the SALE this week,  HERE, Cuttlebug 2010 Folder Sets and A2 Plus are all 40% off until they are gone. Over 29 different folders in stock and discounted!!!!  Check them out!  PUNCHES 10% off with the coupon code “punch” HERE.  Then,  the last day to get the Sugarplums Christmas Kit as a kit, HERE, is this Friday the 15th… great savings purchasing the stamps as a kit. They will be released individually Nov. 1st.  Tim Holtz Halloween Embossing folders in stock, HERE.  I keep remembering more!!!  How awesome is this!!!  Custom name stamps, HERE!  Just in time for Christmas cards!  One for your return address,  one for the family signature inside your card and one for the back!  Very cool!

oh,  in case you want to know… I used YG00, 03,25, 95 for Wally,  the reds are R08, 24, E07 and some E43… I know weird combo…I just thought it needed more of a brown tone to go with the paper!  I did put a touch of green on his eye and used a silver metallic pen on the basket and the chain circle thingy.  N grays for the bike tires and anywhere you see gray.  Wally was stamped on Paper Trey Ink  card-stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Sketch markers.  I used nestabilities circles HERE to cut and mat him.  Happy pedaling!  and shopping!

HERE is my post with the other NEW Cuddle Crew stamp Daisy… and HERE is my post with one of the new Sugars… Sugar September.
