Reminder for JSL Challenge

This is a reminder for Just Some Lines' "Anything Halloween".  The challenge is in its second week of the challenge.  You still have a little time to enter.  Below is my inspiration for the challenge.
My little card is a 6 x 6 square one. with many layers.  I beieve there are 6 layers not counting the matting for each layer. All these layers really made a sturdy card and it gave me a chance to use up of  my Halloween paper scraps.  The little girl in her devil costume was colored with Copics. 

Don't forget to put in your entry to the challenge.

Winter is on the Way

Well, we have really had warm weather so far this fall, but now the temperature is falling and all the little squirrels and other animals are getting ready for the cold.  Cold weather means "snow".  We really don't usually get much snow in Tennessee, but making cards about snow in the warm house, suits me just fine.  Here is my first one for this year..

Following a Sketch


This is the sketch that Our Daily Bread Designs is using for their challenge ODBDSLC126 this week.
 
This is the card I made following the sketch above.
 
On the white base I placed a piece of lavendar designer paper of roses.  On top of that are two lacey circles by Spellbinders. These were stamped with two Our Daily Bread Design stamps.  Next I placed a silver ornate trim from the fabric department at Wal-mart.  As a final touch are two strips of purple ribbon, a bow and a corner adorner cut with  a Cheery Lynn Designs die.
 
I am also entering this in Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge #50, Corner Adorners.

October Colors --Black and Orange

 
Well the colors for October are black and orange.  So I pulled out those colors from my stash.  Below is what I created with the items I found.  I used the small lacey butterfly die from Cheery Lynn Designs with a backing of light orange cardstock.  The sentiment "Time Flies" is on a matted die by Spellbinders.  The trail of the butterfly is made with a glossy flourish sticker.   Everything was placed on a designer paper blackground of clocks.  I am also entering this on Cheery Lynn Designs' Challenge #49 "Black and Orange".
