Halloween Colors ~ DD

Hello my friends~  The gals at DD Challenges are at it again.  A new challenge just posted with the theme "Halloween Colors".  
 
I couldn't resist using this "Pup-kin" die from Spellbinders to make another fun halloween card.
 
The sentiment is "Lavish Happy Halloween" by Poppystamps.  I cut the words out of black and backed them with the shadow die using vellum.
 
This cute little pup is mounted onto rectangles cut using Spellbinders Pinking Edge Birthday Add-Ons.
 
 
If you head on over to Double D Challenges, you'll see more amazing inspiration from the design team.
 
Here's the mood board to help get you started:

Numbers 6:24-26 Oval Shaped Card

Hello friends, I'm popping in with another card I made using the colors from Color Hues color challenge, rust & yellow.
 
I recently picked up these oval dies from The Greetery and the Bible verse stamp from Papertrey Ink.
 
 This is one of my favorite Bible verses.  I added a few flowers from Spellbinders. 
 

I'll be adding this card into the following challenges:
Color Hues ~ Rust & Yellow
 
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes

Rust & Yellow Postage Stamps

Good morning friends ~  I'm popping in with a card I made yesterday for the Color Hues color challenge.  I couldn't let the colors go by, plus my dear friend Marcia is hosting so it's  inspiring me all around!
 
 A "go-to" die for me is the postage stamp die from Waffle Flower.  I'm a bit late jumping on board with the Wildflower stencils, but I'm so glad I finally caved and bought them.
 
 I wasn't sure if the colors would work well with these stencils, but I kinda like the fall feel.  I would buy stamps like these!  ;0)
 
I left off a main sentiment, so this could be used for just about any occasion.  

I'll be linking this card up to the following challenges:
Color Hues ~ Rust & Yellow
 
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes 
The Sisterhood of Crafters ~ Anything Fall

Cute Halloween Treat Boxes ~ CCS

It's the first of October, and the time for handing out candy is upon us!  I've got some cute Halloween Treat Boxes up on the CutCardStock blog.
 

 
Come see how I used quality cardstocks in different colors, weights and textures, as well as dies from Fun Stampers Journey from Spellinders and Elizabeth Craft Designs to make these cute treat boxes.
 
I do hope you'll visit CutCardStock to see how these boxes came together.

Trick Or Treat ~ DD Challenges

Happy October everyone!  Double D Challenges is starting a new challenge and the theme is "Trick or Treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat".  What's more fun to eat than chocolate?
 
I decided to make up two tussy mussies using some old cardboard cones I've had sitting in my craft stash for far too long.  It was time to put them to use.
 
I covered them with design paper and added a tissue paper fringe to the top edge of each cone.  I threaded some wire through for a hanger and tied a strip of black toulle for a bow.  
 
The images were printed on my printer and fussy cut.  I then made a tissue paper medallion to attach the image to and glued the medallions to the front of each cone.  Fill them with paper shred and treats and oua-la!  A cute halloween treat!
 
I added a circle of toulle to the medallion on this one, to add a bit more texture.  I think I like the other one better.
 
Which one do you like?  The owl or the pussy cat?

 I do hope you'll pop in at DD Challenges to see more fun creations from my talented team mates
