Fall Froggy Card from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!!

Uh oh...

Along Came a Spider!

My little froggy from 5934 – Spooky Crew Set
doesn't seem to mind the spiders
nearly as much as I would. I used two little spiders
from 5601 – Halloween Accessories Set.
My card was created for the Along Came a Spider challenge.
(No, it doesn't need to be
Halloween themed.)

I used some green gingham from 5973 – Fall Series 2 Paper Pack,
orange striped paper from 5838 – Fall Journal Paper Pack, 
and added a verse from the
Spooky Crew set, stamped inside of 5726 – Nested Circle Dies and

6045 – Scalloped Circle Dies.
My tags on the inside and out were all cut with 5132 – Tag Stitched Dies.

The verse on the front is from 5954 – Woodland Bears Set.

The leaves, twigs and mushrooms, inside and out are from 
5783 – Fall Leaf Frame Die Set.
I cut the inside tag twice to create a little pocket to make this a gift card holder.

I think my card has Fall sophistication with a cute touch.
I hope you like it and will join our challenge.

Girl Scout Halloween Bookmarks from Art Impressions

Hello Ai fans!

Last night I helped some little girls earn their Craft and Tinker badge for Girl Scouts.

We made some Halloween bookmarks and they seemed to really enjoy themselves.

I created individual baggies with lots of stamped and die cut choices.

The girls ranged from 2nd - 5th grade with a few younger siblings and they all did an amazing job!

It was so fun to see their individual personalities come out in their choices.

I had so much fun doing this and I hope they need help again in the future.

Never Have I Ever Used the Spooky Crew Set from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I have a card that I made for our newest
challenge here on the blog.

Never Have I Ever.

I've never used the new 5934 – Spooky Crew Set.
Halloween is one of my favorite times of year and 
I fell in love with this set instantly!

The frame behind the little critters was cut using 
5063 – Rectangle A2 Double Stitched Dies and I added

dots in green, yellow and turquoise using

5937 – My Trust Set.

You can enter the challenge by clicking on the banner.

The small sentiment was stamped on a little die from

5543 – Journal Template Die Set. I die cut the words 

Spooky Crew using 5562 – Journal Letter Die Set and

glued them onto a strip from 5463 – Slimline Dies Set.

If you notice the packaging, you'll see that these pumpkins

are actually jack-o-lanterns. I inked up the animals with Memento

Tuxedo black and then I used Tombow N57 to trace around the pumpkins.

Those came out very faint so I used my Micron 005 to trace over those lines.

I also added little dots here and there using my Twin Tone markers in

shades of gray, orange and sax blue.

The grass was cut from a die from 5935 – Fairytale Houses Set and
on the inside I stamped another sentiment from the Spooky Crew set along
with a tree and some more dots. The checked paper is from 
5812 – Christmas S2 Paper Pack.
