Fall Colors Challenge ~ Sue B

Happy Day all!

Today I get to be guest designer here at Get Inky! Stamps for the Fall Colors Challenge. Well Fall colors makes me think of Halloween and I just had to make this special Halloween Birthday card. There is a special young lady turning 1 and we thought she would be a Halloween baby. Well, she made her appearance on my daughter's birthday on the 22nd and surprised us all! Here is the card I made:


Did you know that you can stamp directly on patterned paper to dress up your stamped images? I learned this from my dear friend Cardmonkey and opted to do this for my card. I used the 2013 Spooktacular Halloween set for the ghosts and the one eyed monster. I decided to cut the fence with black patterned paper too. 

See the sentiment? Well it is actually a combination of two different stamp sets. I used the 2013 Spooktacular Halloween set for the Boo-tiful and the rest of the sentiment is from the Beary Special Cupcake set. I enjoyed making this card and am planning on using this format for a scrapbook page for our grandchildren's Halloween pics. Thanks for coming by and sharing this time with me. Until next time.....

FALL CHALLENGE




Hi Tracey here today!!!
 
This is my tag I have made for the challenge theme, great idea to but on a present for Halloween or thanksgiving!!
 
 
 
 
So I have used just one stamp for this but still looks affected!! The little pumpkin stamp is from
2013 Spooktacular Halloween Set 6x8" which you can get from the shop here.
 
So I have made the tag & around the edges using a distress inks. Then added a lovely shimmer brown card on top. Then stamp out the pumpkins & coloured in with my copic pens. Then punch a hole & added the twine to finish. A very simple tag but I think can be used for many things.
 
Thanks for looking today & please join in our Challenge which is here.

Lyne's Fall Colors Inspiration

    Hi everyone...Lyne here with a guess designer post as inspiration for the current challenge: Fall Colors. 
     This was my first time using digital stamps, and it was a lot of fun.  It brought my back to coloring as a child. 



     I used the Funky Flower digi set, and Sailboat set.  Both can be found on the Etsy shop.  For more info please head over to my blog.  Can't wait to see what you create for the challenge.

Fall Colours Card




Fall is my favourite time of year as I love seeing all the beautiful colours that Nature makes.  Today I am sharing with you a card I made that can double as a frame for a picture (Wallet size).  It is great for mailing as it folds completely flat.  This card looks like it is made of wood but that is just paper that I worked my magic on!  Seriously, nothing magical, just crafty.  I used the stamps from two sets by Get Inky! stamps  (available here).  
I used the 2013 Halloween set and the Love Bugs set.   The other supplies I used will be listed on my blog: Annmakes

Now stop reading this and go play, Get Inky! and enter the challenge.  Have fun, and thanks for stopping by.

A Simple Thank You

Sometimes the most cherished 'thank yous' are the simplest ones! I love to have a stash of thank you cards on hand for those little moments when someone goes out of their way to help you. As a crafter, I like to say 'thank you' the best way I know how... with a card!


I created this card with the theme of our current challenge in mind - fall colors! The circles were cut with a 1" hole punch from Echo Park's new Reflections Fall paper collection. The 'Thank You' sentiment is from Get Inky's "Sew Sweet Cupcake" stamp set. 

Although the card is really simple it would be great to have a stash of these around during the fall months, or even sold in a set at a craft show!

Have a great rest of your week, and thanks for stopping by!

Bitten by the Love Bug ~ Sue B

Happy Day all!

The newest challenge here at Get Inky! Stamps is titled Birds, Bees, Flowers, Trees, Moon Above, and LOVE and is based on the Jewel Akens song. As my wedding anniversary is coming up, I took this opportunity to make my anniversary card. I used the Love Bugs (grass and ladybugs) and Whimsical Moon and Stars (heart) stamp sets. Here is my card:

The sentiment and the lady bugs were done with my Stampin' Up Black embossing powder and colored them with my Stampin' Up Markers (Pretty in Pink, Yoyo Yellow and Real Red). You can shop for Stampin' Up items HERE. The Designer Print Paper is from Kathy Davis Studios (Butterfly Promise) and the brads are from Kathy Davis' Happiness Collection. So Happy 6th Anniversary to my darling Husband. Alex. May we have many more years to celebrate. Until next time...
