Happy Halloween!

Hello there,
Almost there with getting my new craft room finished, just my new desk to arrive now.

This is my card for the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge for October, as usual it's anything goes so long as it's magical/mythical but as it's October the optional theme has to be spook it up!

What I used

CraftArtist and the Spooktacular digikit.
8x8 black card blank
Created the complete card, printed it out twice and cut the house part out and mounted it on to black card
Added cobwebs using a Tonic die
Mounted the house image on the card front using foam pads.

I hope you like my card - it's not that scary is it? If you've time to leave a comment that would be great. Please join us this month at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge, we'd love to see your makes.

Mermaid under the sea

Hello,
not posted for a while as we've been on holiday and having work done on the house. I'm also in the process of moving my craft room to a bigger room - in the meantime half of it is packed up so getting to my stash is a bit tricky!

This is my DT card for the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge blog, the theme is anything goes with the option of under the sea. Fortunately I managed to find a few things to make the card, so it's a quite simple one this month.

What I used

White 8x8 card blank
Tonic oval dies, plain and scalloped edge
Neenah Solar White stamping card
Papermania dark blue and light blue card for matting and layering
Creative Expressions Raindrops embossing folder to try and indicate being underwater
The images were all stamped using stamps which came with various magazines
Memento Marine Blue ink for stamping
Joy! diamond effect gems
Three Kings Ribbon in opal to cross the corners and trail from the main gem.

I hope you like the card, please leave a comment if you've time, any are really appreciated. Please also join us at the Fairy and Unicorn Challenge this month.
