You made the good list!

Hi all!  I’m here with a card using a Simply B Stamps image today.  I found Simply B a long time ago and actually bought/used a couple images and then for some reason, she totally fell off my radar.  Recently I became reacquainted with her and have since bought a bunch of new images and will be using them more often, so I hope you like them!

Here’s Check List Rio with matching sentiment:

I printed Rio out and colored her with Copics.  Next I cut out the Rio portion with a Papertrey wreath die.  I also cut the wreath out of white glitter cardstock and colored it green with Copics.  Then I inlaid the Rio into the wreath and taped it together on the back.  Finally I printed the sentiment on the card and attached the Rio wreath with foam tape.

The sketch is from CASE(E) this Sketch.  I hope you like it and TFL!

3 Chocolate Challenge Part 2

As you can see from the title, this is the second part of my personal 3 Dove chocolate challenge. (Here's Part 1.)

I made this for the Simply Betty Challenge - make a Halloween treat container:


I already had a bag template that I designed in Make the Cut from this project, so I just made it really tall and skinny to perfectly fit the 3 chocolates. I sized down digi Betty so she would also fit on the little bag and printed her on both sides after it was cut out. The final touches are some die cut grass and Halloween Timeless Twine.

This is also for Dutch Dare - Anything but a card. Hope you like it and TFL!

Trick or Treating with Tiddly Inks and Simply Betty Stamps

Whew! I barely finished this in time before the hop entries closed! Here's my card for the Simply Betty/Tiddly Inks joint blog hop:


I used the gorgeous Rio Digi image from Simply Betty and have her holding a pumpkin that was a freebie from the Tiddly Inks Paper Craft Planet group. I printed them using my laser printer and colored them with Copics. Although it looks like I just left her hair completely white, if you look very closely, you might be able to see that I actually colored/shaded it with my lightest Warm Grey copics (W00, W0 and W1). I cut them both out and used a craft knife to cut carefully around Rio's hand so I could slip the pumpkin underneath to look like she's actually holding it.

The bingo background paper is from the Lettering Delights Halloween Game Night graphic set and I made the medallion from some Halloween Bo Bunny paper cut into a scalloped strip using my long rectangle nesties. I topped it with a black button threaded with some fluffy black fibers. Lastly, I sewed all the way around the bingo card with a zigzag stitch.

This is also for the following challenges:

• Crazy 4 Challenges - Halloween
• A Spoon Full of Sugar - die cutting/punches
• Little Red Wagon - Halloween
• PaperPlay - "A haunting we will go"
• Pixie Dust Studio - Halloween with orange and black
• Daring Cardmakers - "Trick or treating"

Hope you like it and TFL!
