Crafty Secrets #60 on SCS

One more post for today; keep scrolling down for the other two. The Crafty Secrets Challenge on SCS is to make a monochromatic card. I wanted to use this image and sentiment, so searched around until I found this sketch (SFYTT) on Jen Del Muro's blog. I chalked around the image, cut it out with oval Nestabilities. Used Deco corner punch on the mat. Also stamped and cut out the sentiment. Used the DCWV DP because it was a perfect match for the chalking. The lower piece was plain, so I stamped a couple of the Crafty Secrets Flourishes, then attached the sentiment on foam tape. Added some Martha Stewart ribbon. There was a snag on the ribbon that I didn't notice until after I had it attached, so I made the vellum flower to cover it. :)

Stamps: Crafty Secrets For the Girls, and Flourishes.
Paper: The Paper Studio, DCWV Luxury mat pack.
Ink: Stazon, Colorbox Queues.
Accessories: Ribbon, Nestabilities, Pebbles chalks, foam tape, flower punches, Stickles, Deco corner punch.

Hangin' With Count Catula!

I've had this Magenta stamp called Count Catula since last year and decided to use it when I saw this sketch.
I put a piece of paper that looked like gray flannel through with my Cuttlebug Spiderweb folder, attached that to the base card. The spiderweb on the strip was embossed with silver powder...just hanging out there in the corner. Catula was colored with Prismacolor pencils, edged in chalks, and cut out with a square Nestability. This was then mounted on another square and attached to the base. The sentiment was done with the Justrite Monogram stamper Special Fonts set and small letters, with no border. Cut it out with a Nestie circle, inked the edges and attached it with dimensionals. I know they're not your usual halloween colors, but I think they look pretty nice. :)

Stamps: Magenta, Justrite.
Paper: Paper Studio.
Ink: Top Boss embossing, Colorbox.
Accessories: Justrite Monogram Stamper, Prismacolor pencils, Cuttlebug, embossing powder, Nestabilities, dimensionals.
