Witch better have my candy! from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

Though I have only the occasional sweet tooth, I can think of a WHOLE LOTTA friends that this card would be appropriate for!

I've used the Owl, Bat and one of the verses from 5352 – Halloween Critters Set.
I work in an elementary school and I have all of my outfits for the week picked out!

Lots of fun Halloween attire that the kids will love!

This set is just the cutest thing ever!  The pirate fox is my favorite but the entire set is so darling.
P.S. Please ignore the little stray dog hair that I didn't notice was on his hat until the photos were uploaded and edited! lol!  Oh well.

It's a BRIGHT and SPARKLY Halloween with Chibi lights and Art Impressions!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm so excited to share a new set with you.

I love Halloween SO MUCH and this set is SO CUTE!!

I've used the new Autumn Owl Cubbies #5179

from the Critter Cubbies series.

The latest challenge at Ai is Make It Sparkle.

I LOVE sparkle so I used some VERY sparkly silver paper, there is orange Stickles on the lights and crystal Stickles on the window.  Then, of course!  There are the Chibi lights!  Those certainly add sparkle.  

I have to be honest.  I was very intimidated by the lights.

They are a little pricey, (but add so much WOW) and I was worried about ruining them.  I found an amazing tutorial and this could not have been more simple!

This is the tutorial I used.  I watched several and still wasn't ready to give it a try until I found this one.

Here's the inside of my card.

I didn't take a photo of it but on the inside front panel I added a little note that said...Press the door on the bottom pumpkin for a surprise.

Owl Flutter from Art Impressions

Hello Ai fans!
 Today I'm sharing one of the fun, new Flutters!
 I've used 4972 – Owl Flutter Set.

The Flutters line is a fun, new interactive line from Art Impressions. You pull the tab and the wings, ears etc. move up and down.

The owl comes with a fun birthday verse.

You can see it on the inside of my card below.

Here's a video of the cute, interactive wings.

Happy Halloween from Art Impressions!

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a fun Halloween card with you.

I've used 4940 – Happy Haunting Set.

I colored the rickety old haunted house with watercolor pencils.

I wish this little trio lived outside of my house.  My son has been lucky enough to see a barn owl from two lots down fly past his window a few times but I've never seen him.

Don't you just love the sparkle that these fusible glitter sheets add?

I wanted to create something with some dimension to it.  Kind of like a scene and not just a card.  This can be displayed all season long.

Fantasia Pencils: 3, 29, 43, 45, 50, 53

Staedtler Pencil: 80 Gray

I Brake for Graduations!

Hello and happy Saturday!

I'm working in overdrive right now.  I have a junior and a senior this spring. Right now my baby is at school taking her SAT test.  My senior is out doing yard work with my husband.  I am frantically trying to get graduation cards made for his friends!

Their school colors are red and blue so I paired this amazing image from I Brake for Stamps with this fun paper.

GRAD OWL

Now...this is new for me.  I ordered a bunch of FUSIBLE GLITTER SHEETS last month.  All I can say is...what took me so long!  These are GORGEOUS!!  The camera doesn't do it justice. (at least my camera doesnt')  These have tremendous shimmer and shine!  So far I've only die cut them to use on cards but I'm already in love!  My daughter and I are thinking about what we might be able to create for t-shirts.  You heard me!  This can be used on fabric too!!  I used the RED on this card but I ordered about 10 colors so you'll get to see many more in the future.  They're all beautiful!

My owl looks much darker (tan) in person.  I need a new camera!

On the inside I used...
