WCMD - No P's Please

I love, loVE, LOVE this card!! I am so happy with how it turned out. This was the second challenge from WCMD that I was able to complete. In the last few weeks, as I've been browsing the gallery at SCS, cher2008 has just been making me oooh and aaah over her cards. So as I was looking for some ribbon to add to my card, I saw this yellow striped that was really wide and thought of her cards. I wanted to attempt the same look and this is what I got. I am so happy with it!! Seriously, I just want to look at and I don't know if I'll ever be able to part with it! Does this ever happen to you???

Anyway, the challenge was no patterned paper and no pastels. That suits me fine - I have tons of patterned paper, but I never want to use it. I love using stamps to make my own patterned paper. Silly, huh! This purple CS was on the top of the stack - Orchid Opulence - crazy color!!! Luckily this stamp set seems to work with whatever colors you use it with. Bright yellow paired with it and some black accents to tame it all down! What do you think - is this card a winner? Keep checking in as I have some other cards I haven't had a chance to share with you yet! I so appreciate it when you "swoop by" too!!

Swooping By

Hey girls!! I am definitely "swooping by" real quick to post this card. I didn't manage to get too many cards made on Saturday, World Card Making Day!! I was working but got home as quick as I could after my party, slipped into my pj's, scoped out some challenges at SCS and got to work!

Simply Sistas just released some new images for Halloween. They are all digital - which means 1) you get them instantly - no waiting and stalking the postlady and 2) you can size them to fit your project perfectly! I love her hair!! Of course, she's a witch so she probably just spoke some spell and had it look fabulous like that!!

I used the WCMD sketch for this one! I also paper pieced her; which was fun, but did involve some tongue clenching moments!! I'm totally thrilled with how she came out!! And isn't she just a proper lady, riding her broom sidesaddle?

I have several other cards to share over the coming days. I did sit down and photograph them all today, but I don't want to edit them all right now ---- so....come back and see what else I came up with! I'm gonna hop off now and go work on some ATC's for a "Pink for the Cure" Swap I joined.
