I’m over in the CLASSroom at Ellen Hutson this weekend with a review of sequins and a Shaker Card tutorial. I hope you’ll take a look!

Freshly Made Sketches #157 – Halloween
Playing along with the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches with a Halloween card.

I used a Memory Box die set – Trick or Treaters – for the focal point, pairing it with a Stampin’ Up sentiment and patterned paper from We R Memory Keepers. I particularly like how this sketch uses pattern. (I have a lot of patterned paper and often look for ways to use it.) Hope you’re having a terrific weekend!
CardMaps with Penny Black
Today, I’m sharing a card I created using one of the October Cardmaps Sketches with Penny Black supplies designed by Becky Fleck.

I used 30-244 Bon Voyage for the focal image and sentiment. I stamped the balloons several times and paper pieced them. I stamped the ampersand from 30-247 Life’s Journals, cutting it with a circle punch. I die cut the clouds with 51-033 Silver Linings.
Believe! Essentials by Ellen Designed by Julie Ebersole
I am sharing another holiday card crafted with products from the Essentials by Ellen release designed by Julie Ebersole exclusively for Ellen Hutson LLC.

I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from the Brushstroke Christmas set, as well as the lights from the Tis the Season set. The stag was cut from both green and gold foil cardstock. I cut two layers for extra depth. The die cuts and stamps in this release work so well together!
