Designer Challenge - Fall Colors

Hello Crafty Friends,

It's Designer Challenge time again and this month Karen Burniston has challenged the team with the theme: Fall Colors.  I really liked how Karen did her challenge card last month with her pumpkins on the altered cake platform.  I decided to try it with my turkey, but I turned it upside down.  I'm happy with the results using the Peacock Add-ons to create my turkey.



                Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out all the great cards 
                 from the team on the Karen Burniston Pop Up Peeps on Facebook.
     
Happy Crafting,
S@ndy

Spooky

 Hello friends,

It's almost time for the great pumpkin and I am sharing my last Halloween card for the year.  I'm not sure why I love making Halloween cards but it's a fact that I do.  I used a double Cascade Pop-up from Karen Burniston for this one.  It makes lots of room for all the spooky stuff.  Hope your Halloween is spooktacular!

Designer Challenge "Hey Pumpkin"

 Hey friends,

It is my favorite time of year - Halloween!  I made a fun card for the Designer Challenge this month using the Little Twist Panel, my favorite season and my favorite die.  It just doesn't get any better. Our challenge from Karen Burniston this month is "Hey Pumpkin", so much fin.



I used the Little Twist Panel Pop-up to make the Halloween candy flow out of the Jack-O-Lantern.  For the Jack-O Lantern - I used some free clipart from the internet, printed it and cut it out using my Scan n Cut.  I did the same with the candy.  I used lots of Karen Burniston dies as usual, you can see links to all the products I used below.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Haunting,

Happy World Cardmaking Day

 Hello friends,

It is World Cardmaking Day and that is so perfect for me.  I love making cards and Halloween cards are my favorite ones to make.  It's a combination that makes me happy.


I have to confess that I had this card base made a long time ago, so it was handy to find in my crafting PHD (projects half done) file.  This is an A2 landscape, so I had plenty of room for the House Pivot Panel from Karen Burniston.   I cut several fences and glued together to extend the size of the spooky scene. There is a sale going on for World Cardmaking day on Karen's website.  You can see all the products I used linked below.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.  Make a card.

Sandy's Take on Tanya's Take

 Hello Crafty Friends,

I wanted to make the spooky castle along with Tanya, but I didn't get a kit.  I had some of the same paper and the die, of course, so here is my take on Tanya's take.




Way back in 2018 I did a video on another haunted castle, I added a link below if you would like to take a peek.

Birthday Double Cascade

 Hey friends,

Stopping by today with a fun double cascade card.  The Designer Challenge this month was Cascade so why not keep it going?  I make a lot of birthday cards and using the Cascade Pop-up from Karen Burniston makes it easy to make a festive card.
