Halloween Shaker Card

First I stamped using black ink on white cardstock the spider web, the I used my copic markers and airbrushed the orange background. This could also be done with stipple brushes or sponges.

Using black in stamp globe G3374 on white cardstock and cut out the opening of the globe.

stamp globe again on a piece of acetate or window plastic using permnament black ink. You may need to heat set depending on the ink you use.

Color the base of the globe using copic marker.

Stamp witch shoes, witch hat and broom. Colored with copic markers, cut out and set aside

These will be attached to the outside of the finished card using foam mounting tape.

I used double stick adhesive to attach the stamped acetate globe behind the first cut out stamped globe. Then place double stick foam tape around the opening of the globe. This will give you a clearance around the globe for placing some fun things inside so they can move around.

Now for the finished card.................. I hope you enjoy it. The airbrushing to the front of the finished card did not show up very well.

All stamps used are from Just For Fun

Just For Fun's® Color Challenge #26

Hello Friday. I can't believe how fast each week goes by. Welcome back for this weeks challenge. Here are the colors we will be using this week.

Here is a sneak peek of

what my card

will look like.........

I stamped Just For Fun's berry branch G3431 with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with copic marker and cut out the image. I then designed a pot for the berry branch and used forget-me-not swirl pattern stamp G3354 with Expresso ink, then embossed it with the Distressed Stripes embossing folder. Using a piece of yellow card stock I used a template from inverted scalloped circles from Spellbinders and airbrushed a little bit of red coloring. Everything is layered together on a brown card.

Now for the finished card.

Just For Fun® Color Challenge #25

Here are the colors we are using this week.

Maybe you will want to join in all the fun and your could be the winner of $50.00 to use at Just For Fun . Last weeks challenge winner is Karen Hasbeck.

Now, here is a sneak peek

of my card.

This was a fun card for me to make because I got to use my NEW airbrush system and made the background for the card. I randomly stamped the maple leaf stamp E1149 on a quarter panel piece of card stock and then the fun began. I airbrushed the background color using copic markers. The dried flower stalks were stamped using brown ink, air brushed and layered on olive colored card stock. If you do not have an air brush system you can use stipple brushes or sponges.

The pumpkins were all colored with copics, cut out and layered on the card.

Hope you enjoyed my card. Now go and see what the other members have to show you.

Opps, I messed up. I used red instead of cranberry, but I think you will get the idea. If you decided to copy my card, just use cranberry accents. I'm still in the Christmas in August mode. So I hope you enjoy viewing my "Be Merry" Christmas card.



I started with a white quarter panel and stamped the 2 trees D3437 large snow pine in the foreground and D2418 small snow pine towards the back using a pesto Adirondack ink pad. I then made a mask for each of the snowy patches. This took a little bit of time. But I was able to save them to use again. I then used butterscotch ink and stippled color. Now stamp Be Merry UMS 7018 Sentiments 1 using cranberry ink.


Each snowy patch of the tree I applied polar white Flower Soft. Wow, I like how this turned out. To finish the card I tied a red (should be cranberry) ribbon and a small flourish.

Now it's your turn. Hop on over to Just For Fun Blog and submit your card using olive, cranberry and yellow. The stamp images do not need to be Just For Fun.

How about Christmas in August!

I started by stamping the candy canes(C3414) on white cardstock using Adirondack Cranberry ink and Merry Christmas (D2958). Then I cut out the candy canes and sprayed them with sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz. On kraft cardstock I stamped thepine branch (F2653) using Adirondack Bottle Green ink.

Using white cardstock I used a Spellbinders die Create a Flake One and cut out several layers for the snowflake, then I used Martha Stewart's glittering glue and coarse glitter and covered the layers. I really like how nice the snowflake turned out.

Grandaughter's Art Work

I just love when my Grandaughter Savannah has a sleep over at our house. She always wants to play in my stamp room and is always wanting to learn new things. I have been letting her color with my Copic markers and Savannah is starting to get pretty good with them. She also likes to use the prismacolor pencils which I think are her favorite.

So .......... Savannah colored the little girl with Copic markers and then she designed a scene to put her into. I just love the hanging tire swing. You can't tell in the picture, but she popped up the little girl for her to look 3-D.

Great Job Savannah, Grandma loves you.
