ATC Fun

 This ATC was made using the adorable Whimsical Mushroom House by Altenew.  I used/recycled part of a fun embossing folder that I didn't use on a previous project for the background.  I added some ribbon and flowers and a gem.  I used 3 pens from 3 different Altenew marker sets, Red Cosmos, Cherry Blossom and Tropical Forrest.

Dr. Digi Thanksgiving Cards

 I shared this card yesterday (9/21) on Dr. Digi's Crafters' Cards Facebook Page.  Today I found out I won Card of the week with it.  Yay!  I used the Tcb Pack Thanksgiving 01.  I added the leaves using a couple of leaf dies.

When you get card of the week you get to pick an image from their shop.  So, I picked Tough Turkey.  I used the same sentiment pack as above.  I added papers and gems from CTMH (now part of Stamp'in Up).

Your Beauty Radiates From Within

 This card was made using The Altenew Radiating Beauty stamp and die set.  First I took a plain sheet of paper, scribbled the pink, purple and green alcohol inks around, then used actual alcohol, paint brush and embossing gun to create the leaves, flowers and words prior to stamping/cutting.  I used a piece of retired CTMH paper in the background, the strip down the side is the top part of the paper, I just chose not to remove it since it worked so well.  I added gems and ribbon.

I love how the sentiment turned out, however, the flower itself, I'm not 100% sure about. The greens in the leaves were done using the Tropical Forest Marker set, also from Altenew.

Magical

 Another birthday card made for a co-worker.  When asking what she wanted on her birthday card, she said ""I love gnomes, turtles and I love to say unicorns are my spirit animals. Last year you did a gnome theme, which was so cute!!! Maybe this year a unicorn because I am so magical. For colors, I really love greens, greyish blues, grey, yellow and lavenders. Magic themed maybe, because I still like to believe there is magic in the world." I went with Unicorns and Magic, there is some lavender/purple and yellow.  I felt like this fit really with this months challenge at Creatalicious Challenges which is "ATG and/or Mythical Creatures"

Live Life In Full Bloom

 This is the current freebie over at CraftsUPrint.  There is still time to grab this one.  They give away one a week.  I love the sunflowers in it and the fall colors.  I added some brown stickles to the center of the sunflowers and some clear stickles to the butterfly.  I added drops of Glossy Accents over the fake pearls to give them some depth.  I used a sentiment from a retired CTMH stamp set.

French Fry Box Gift Card Holder

 I received this adorable Panda Bear today from a prize I won back in July.  This is Quarter Panda Burger Drink - Noodle Panda Bear.  I cut out the fries a couple of times, they were part of the box of fries behind the little Panda, then I cut the fries out again for the part that holds the gift card, that way it could slide in and out and the fry box will still look like it has fries in it.  The fries and fry box were cut using a Cricut image and the Cricut itself.  I tried to make it so you can create the same thing on your Cricut.  You will have the get the Panda from Polkadoodles of course!

In the Halloween Mood

 Today I have been in the Halloween crafting mood.  I recently purchased a few things From Dr. Digi's House of Stamps.

My first card was made this morning after I woke up.  I used Halloween Coffin and Dracs Dentures.

The webs were drawn on using my Cricut.

The next card I made later in the day...  For this one I used Halloween Broom and Fenella and Fenton.  I used a die on black sticker paper to get the cobweb in the corner.  The bow was also cut using a die.

Birthday planter

 This card was created for the new ATG and/or CAS challenge over at Incy Wincy Designs.  For my card I used the Stamp'in Up set called the Country Flowers Bundle (the die and the plant).  I do not recall what set the sentiment was from.  LOL  I used an awesome frame embossing folder from Sizzix.  The only thing extra I added were the 3 pearls.
