I thought I'd try out a different card size then the usual, or more like, than what I am comfortable doing, which is either an A2 size or a 5" x 5". This card measures 7 1/4" x 6 1/2. I really wanted to use the MFT Die-namics Peek-a-boo trio, so in order to do that, the card size had to be tweaked just a bit.....

Hello my fellow followers....I realize it's been such a loooong time since my last post, and I apologize for that! I really, really want to be more responsible with my blog posts and would LOVE to post something every other day.....for some reason, I can't seem to do it! I am going to make that a point to stay current and I might add a little here and there from time to time about something random that I want to share thay may not be crafty related, maybe that will fill in the gap for the days I don't have anything crafty to share.....now, I'm not saying that I'm going to be posting daily, don't get me wrong, baby steps....
I recently started to update my Youtube channel (sil2289)with more haul videos, card making videos and hopefully branch out to something other than just cards....I'll work on that.....
For now, I'll share some cards that I created for Halloween....
"HAPPY HALLOWEEN"

It's sure starting to feel like Spring here in Arizona, the weather has been really nice. Although I strongly believe that we really only have two seasons here, it's either Spring or Summer. Either way, I love it here!
In todays card I am using a Penny Black stamp called "Hedgehog Bouquet". It makes me think of Spring! I've been really into Penny Black stamps, so you will be noticing a lot of cards with several different Penny Black images to come, hope you like them. The pattern paper is from My Minds Eye called Home, I purchased this 6" x 6" stack at Michaels last year and I'm just now getting around to using it, can you believe that? I used the Spellbinder Nestabilities Standard circles large to cut my image out, then for my layer, I used the Nestabilities Big Scalloped Circles large....I love the way it turned out.
I've actually been creating most of my cards without sentiments, I feel I often need a card and I've already added a sentiment and can't use it, so, I have decided that on the cards that can be used for more than one occasion I am leaving without sentiment until I have a use for it.
Thanks for stopping by....Have a great day!
