Well I am still making some Halloween cards (I did sneak in a fall card that you can see tomorrow). The Penny Black blog has a challenge and call for new design team members. I have always loved her stamps (especially the hedgies and the cats). They are so much fun to work with. This week you had to make a spooky card or creation. It is hard to make a spooky card with her…
You will never believe what I have been doing today. I was checking out my blogs to day and 2 of them posted a challenge today.

I have other black and white and I have really liked including that paper in my…
There was a midweek challenge on Our Creative Corner this week. You had to create a card using the vintage values technique. This is a really cool technique and was a bit easier than I thought. The entire technique reminds me of cards that Michelle creates. While Michelle uses the brayer to create her effects, this technique uses a sponge.
