Free Halloween Sheet

I've no card prepared for today so I hope you will forgive me, I was at the theatre last night with my Mam to see a play, a very funny one too. I'm not sure if I have already told you how amazing my Mam is but I wanted to tell you that she has started a computer course. When we lost Dad my Mam picked up a computer for the first time and loved it, she views many of the blogs from my Blog Links she surfs the WWW if she needs to find products and the likes and she wanted to know a bit more so she signed herself up and has even set up her own email address.
So rather than a card I know many of you have know started on your Halloween Cards so I've prepared a free sheet to help you on your way.

Autumn Splendour

Don't you just love the Autumnal colours? the trees are now a rainbow of the Autumn shades, vibrant and glowing earthy tones. I tried to capture a bit of that in my next card.
Three Trees is a new Just Inklined Digital Stamp which you can colour for any season, I used Copic Markers and the olives and orange shades then distressed the edges of the cards with distress inks.
Background papers are from Stampin Up the Autumn Ribbon is from my stash and a bit of love to bring it all together.

Queens Cutie - Kenny K

I simply love these DCWV papers they mix and match so well. Bunny Zoes Crafts even to samples of them so rather than get 2 of each design you get 1 of each for half the cost, it's a great way to get a couple of packs that you like for the cost of 1.
The image today is Queens Cutie by Kenny K coloured with Copic markers.

Roses in Bloom

Clean and simple with a splash of colour, the cram packed Roses in Bloom Stamp set by Waltzing mouse Stamps never fails to produce a card that I love, I teamed with the Universal Embossing Folders Budding Vine .
I stamped the rose on a seperate strip of card to make the background then stamped out the smaller rose coloured it with Copic Markers then cut it out to add to the gift tag.

Sorry Shanna

My card today was inspired by Becca Feeken she used cupcake liners on one of her cards and I found some at Sainsbury's whilst shopping they aren't cheap at £4.99 for 12 lasor cut outers but they do look lovely on a card I used 2 of the outers to make this card.
Sorry Shanna is a digital stamp by Mo Manning, coloured with Copic markers and diecut with Nestabilies Labels, a ribbon and a bit of love to bring it all together.


A close up of the little lady, you can also see from this close up picture that the cupcake outer has a antique finish with a brown edge to the cut area.
