New card!

So today is my boyfriend's dad's birthday so I decided to make him a card using the Splitcoaststampers sketch challenge 298.  I LOVE this sketch....so versatile.
Anyways here is my card...

Ingredients:

Cream cardstock, Stampin Up cardstock Night of Navy, Joann value pack olive colored cardstock, Basic Grey Boxer patterned paper, American Crafts brown cardstock, Coluzzle and ovals template, Stampin Up Motorcycle stamp, Hero Arts happy birthday stamp, Stampin Up Chocolate Chip ink.

It was a really fun and fast card to make.

Thanks for checking it out!

Cricut Cardz Challenge Blog Entry - Scallops

So here is my entry for the Cricut Cardz Challenge blog....my first one!  I used Storybook for the scalloped circles and Mini Monsters for the spider.  In retrospect I wish I would have made the spider a quarter inch larger, but oh well....life goes on.  After I cute out the black scalloped circle on top (the one behind it is all white to write on) I wrapped white embroidery floss around it to look like a spider web.  The black paper is some cool American Crafts foiled cardstock.  So shiny, but hard to see in the picture.  I decided the spider needed to be purple with a blingy gold belly, because if spider really looked like that they might not be so scary...well probably still would be scary.  Enough jibba jabba....here is my card:

Ingredients: Cricut Expression Mini Monsters and Storybook, American Crafts foiled cardstock (black and gold), K&Company Halloween paper stack, Stampin' Up white cardstock, Studio G mini alphabet stamp set, Versafine black ink, Stampendous glitter embossing powder, Ranger Distress ink in Black Soot, and white embroidery floss.

Thanks for checking out my project!
