Hi all! Here's my post for the Cuttlebug Spot. I have been battling sinus headaches on and off all week... Today is the very first day that I have actually felt like my old self. :)
This is an A2 card. I used kraft cardstock for the card base. I used the skeleton scroll embossing folder and embossed a 5.25 in by 4 in vintage cream cardstock from Paper Trey Ink. I used distress inks to create this halloween-ish effect for the background. I cut the tree from the Stretch Your Imagination cartridge. The moon is from the Plantin Schoolbook cartridge out of a bright yellow cardstock, I used the same distress inks to give it some color.
awesome card and great pic of it too. love the backgoound...

@Theresa, Thanks so much. I had a million and one ideas for this card but while I was making this card last week, my eyes won't stay open long enough for me to finish the card. I was so sick. :( So I stuck with a simpler one.
@Meredith, Thanks a lot! Hope to see you guys's work at TCS when Nilda gets everything straightened out with her computer.
Oooo! Very cool... or should I say... spooky! LOVE it!

@Jennifer, I ordered this folder months ago thinking it was just some pretty folder with nice swirls... I didn't look close enough to realize there were skulls on the thing!!! LOL I got it for $1.25 I think online.
Hi Vanessa, love the background on your project. It really makes the scary tree stand out. Great take on the DT theme. Andy.
ReplyDeleteVanessa, hope you are feeling better soon. Sorry to hear about your headaches. I love your card. I've never seen that embossing folder before but it works so well. Hope you continue to improve and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHello Andy!!! Thanks!!! Love your tombstone too!
ReplyDelete@Donna, I am feeling so much better today, Thank God for Zyrtec! If you've read the previous comments, I didn't know this was a halloween folder, I bought it online and saw the swirls, and I thought it was just darling! Didn't see the skulls til I opened the package! lol
