DOORWAY CAT

Had fun making my for the current TicTacToe Challenge #258 designed by Felicita.  Wanted to do something with the french door dies and finally came up with this idea.  I went down the middle with leaves/foliage, thank you and die cuts.


Had a terrible time photographing the inside of the card as those doors just didn't want to stay open - but the inside says "so grateful for you".  The brick pp is from my stash and not sure where the door dies are from.  The pumpkin is from a long ago Papertrey Ink set as are the leaves from old Hero Arts - and who knows where the cat wandered in from:-)!!!  It is on an A2 card base so stands up nicely for display.

Thanks for stopping by today and look forward to your card in our gallery.  Crafty hugs,

ALTENEW OCTOBER CHALLENGE

 It's World Cardmaking Day so plan on trying to make as many cards as possible today.  I created my first for Altenew's Inspiration Challenge for October.

Stamped and embossed Altenew's poinsettia (no longer available) and then watercolored with wine berry, coral bliss and forest glades.  Fussy cut the flower and mounted on an arch die cut which had been embossed with SSS holiday greenery.  Small yellow sequins were added to the center of the flower.  Spattered with gold and added the little sentiment - done!


Thanks for stopping by.

MORE HALLOWEEN PUMPKINS

I think I'm about finished with Halloween cards even tho I have so much fun making them.  Used some new pp from The Stamp Market and some old Papertrey Ink dies.  On middle card I used some Concord & 9th dies - then dropped the smallest die and it has disappeared from the face of the earth!! :-(


 

On this card I used a fun fold idea from katarina tarta crafts on IG.  

This card was supposed to be like the one above only I folded it wrong - but I think it still turned out pretty cute.  Very old pp and Concord & 9th dies.

I found the black arch already cut in my scrap box - so with some leftover pumpkins and leaves and more pp it was turned into a card. 

I am entering the following challenges - Creative Creases Challenge (anything goes), The Love Challenge (anything goes), SSS October Challenge on IG (Halloween), NBUS Challenge #67 and Two Old Bats (anything goes).

Thanks for stopping by.
