Everything Essential Halloween Window Card

 Hello and welcome to my blog; today I have a fun simple window card to share with you just in time for Halloween.  Halloween is Saturday, but you still have time to make this fun little card.  Sometimes you can do so much with just stamps, ink, and paper!  You, don't have to have everything in the catalogs!  Yes, I just said that.  

Sometimes all you need is a good all around stamp set to get you through and the Everything Essential stamp set has that.  You have Halloween, Christmas, Valentines Day and other images and sentiments that will last you for awhile.  To me it's fun to use just a few supplies to create a super cute little card like I did with this window card today.  Here's a look at my card.

Warm Wishes - Poinsettia Petals The Spot Challenge #134

 Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you my card for this week's challenge over at The Spot.  This week's challenge is a very fun card sketch.  I picked the Poinsettia Petals Stamp set from the August - December Mini Catalog along with the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper to create my card with today.  

I wanted to do something fun and festive with the sketch for this week's challenge, but wasn't quite sure what I wanted to use until I sat down and actually was reorganizing my designer series paper and putting the scraps into sleeves.  I as was doing this I was actually on this pack of designer series paper and it hit me that the scraps on my table was perfect.  Isn't it funny how things just fall into place sometimes.   Here's a look at the card that I created for this week's challenge.
