Creative Accents ABC Challenge Card

Here is my little Witch sitting on a gate for the Challenge.  Colored with Copics, Paper I'm not sure got it last year. Boo is from QK alphabet, Lamp is from TH Clipboard covered in Stickles as well as the bat.
This is the inside of the card.  More of the same paper as the front and Witches shoes from Spellbinders. Paper has saying about stinky feet so just had to use the witches shoes.  And here is a close up of the lamp and the Boo for you.  I think I have covered all the requirements.
A   Alphabet
B   Bling
C   Clipboard.
Oh ya extra points for Halloween.  Heheeeeeeee

So lets see what you are doing.  Take Care and thanks for looking would be great if you would leave a comment as well

Another Hero Arts Flower Birthday Card

Hi there all.  I did this card yesterday just to have in my stash.  I usually have trouble working in just a couple of colors especially when white is involved but I think I managed to pull this one off.  Embossed the back ground with a CB embossing folder, used a copic's marker to do the blue edge  and embossed the Happy Birthday stamp. 

Thank you for looking.  Take Care all and have a great week.  
Must start Halloween Cards this week.

Sister In Laws Birthday Card

Did this one up awhile ago but didn't want to put it up till it was in the mail and hopefully she has it by now.

Hero Arts large flower stamped twice embossed on water color paper then used paints (water based) I used red and blue to get the pinky purple combination. I dried them and cut out and layered.  You can't see in the picture is that I also used sparkle pen between the narrow vanes on the flower to give it a little bling.  MS edge done on two layers of paper and some silk ribbon to finish off.  Saying stamped and embossed as well.  Main card is Basil stock and other is from a 6x6 I think Basic Grey pad.

Had fun doing this card and will be doing it again in several different colors. 
Thanks for looking  Take Care All

Hilltop Creations (Joint Card Making)

Well as some of you know Barb (Mrs T) and I get together and do cards on a regular basic's.  We have a lot of fun at this and sometimes turn out some neat stuff. (we always have fun) Today Barb got a call from another neighbor that asked for a special sympathy card.   None of us like doing these cards, but here is what we came up with.  This gentle man was into hunting and lab dogs.    Some of the paper was from Barb's stash some from mine.  Idea's were just a flying and as per usual many were tried and then others were combined.  This is what we came up with and we will be looking at doing something similar for male type occasions.
Please let us know what you think.  Thanks for looking.
Oh by the way the other neighbor was very happy with it.  Take Care

Lucas did a card as well

Lucas is Katharina's older brother he is 9.  Today he made this card on his own.  I love how he used  the red ribbon as flames for his dragon.  The sparkle does not show up on my picture but it is there.

Lucas understands a little English and will be doing much better next time he visits Canada.
Take Care all and thank you for looking.

She's Back

This is one of her cards today.  Katharina did this all herself and
 just brought the finished card to me.  I think I may have to take some coloring lessons from her.

Katharina is working with some scape paper and odds and ends I gave her to work with.

Thank you for visiting.  Take Care All
