Like I said before, I love to make Halloween cards but don’t usually send them out. But now that both granddaughters are in college I may surprise them with a card. The images in the Skeletons Dance Stamp Set Bundle are soooo cute! I added Sparkle Silk to this image to make it shine. You probably cannot see but I added trees to the background (black, of course, it’s halloween!)… Read More »

It’s a wedding card for my nephew and his bride to be. I wanted to… Read More »

The leaves are from a retired FSJ accessory (retired last year but I… Read More »

The washi tape is retired and one of the tapes was from… Read More »

The background paper is from the new RSVP Printed… Read More »

A quick and easy card to put together since the only stamping involved was the greeting! Download Artful… Read More »
