Another fun layout

There have been some fun sketches on the blogs this week.  I usually try to do Julee’s Poetic Artistry / Mojo Monday sketch.  She presented a challenge for us this week with a large circle on the card.  I wanted to use some more of my patterned paper and thought this paper fit the cauldron on the stamp.  Once I got the panels made and attached to the base it was missing something.  That’s when…

A Quick Card

My friend Sandy (Hi Sandy!) is skeptical that anyone can create a card in short amount of time.  Today’s card took me all of 30 minutes.  It was a quick card to make and the layout is a great one from Natasha.  Her site is a good one for quick simple cards.  I like the simplicity of this card.  So what do you think, do you like this simple card?  Here is the sketch and my card.…

You are going to love this card!

I am so excited about today’s card.  At my workshop last night I was talking to a few of my ladies and told them I was thinking of using this Halloween wheel and Pearl Ex to create a card.  I had a picture in my mind of what I wanted so it was just a matter to putting it together.  I had wanted to have green on the ground, some orange for the pumpkins, and…
