3D skull

I got the Tim Holtz 3D wood grain embossing folder and had to try it out!  Since I had a friend having a  birthday and  likes Halloween, I thought it would be fun to create a wooden skull!  I inked up some 110pound Neenah Solar Crest Card stock with Distress Inks. I used Brushed Corduroy, Ground Espresso, Gathered Twigs and Weathered Wood. Cut out the skull using the Tim Holtz Bigz Skull die and then embossed using the 3D embossing folder in wood grain.  I cut out 4 extra skulls to build up.ll.  Using a regular embossing folder from Tim Holtz, I ran the base of the card with the embossing folder. Then ran it again after color paper with Distress Oxides to blend and give a beautiful color for the background and the flowers.  Layered everything up and voila! Skull for a birthday! I think my friend will like it!

Zombie Easter Cards

Of course my love of Halloween is know to all that know me! I have a lot of Halloween friends that love anything Halloween!  So for every holiday, I try to modify a traditional card and make it Halloweenie!  All my friends in my craft groups, love to see what I come up with! The Tim Holtz Zombie Man die has become my personal paper doll and I dress him up for every holiday! So here he is gathering up Easter eggs and of course eating chocolate bunnies! Muwah!

This was a tag that I made last year-

Easter Cards with Elizabeth Craft dies

I recently purchased these Elizabeth Craft dies to make some Easter Cards. I really like the basket die and the layered egg die. You can mix and match these dies with other dies and many papers.

The basket die is very versatile-

I had over 50 cards for friends and family that I had to make this year. So I loaded up on spring dies and stamps and Easter stamps and dies!  It was great fun to make!

Spring is in the Air

I wanted to make Easter Cards and Spring cards for all my friends and family! My craft friends and Halloween Haunter friends list is long!  So I started off with some fun Spring Cards using the SSS Daisy stitch die!  I love the look of these daisies that this die produces! 

Then I doubled up the flower die to make it look fuller and I like the effect-

I also like the black eyed Susan Daisies-

This is a very versatile die from SSS and I will definitely get a lot of use out of it!
