Classic Halloween Characters

I found these old Stampin’ Up stamps in my closet, along with some old Stampin’ Up paper, and decided to do a few more Halloween ATCs. Here are Dracula, a witch, and Frankenstein, colored with Copics and heat embossed accents.

A Little Hocus Pocus

I guess I’ve really been working on ATCs more than greeting cards lately! Here’s another swap from atcsforall, with a Halloween theme. I decided to use the Sanderson sisters. The images are from Kindred Stamps. I colored them with Copic markers and did a bit of heat embossing. Aren’t they cute?

Pumpkin Spice

I chose to use a sweet little stamp from Unity Stamps for a pumpkin themed atc swap with Sweet Sentiment. The pumpkin is popped up on the card with foam tape, and there is burlap and hemp twine for a bit of texture. The image is colored with Copic markers, and the sentiment is heat […]

Spooky

It’s that time of year when I start thinking of all things scary and spooky. I made these artist trading cards just for the heck of it. The words and phrases come from two of my all-time favorite books, A Wrinkle in Time and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. For all the book lovers out […]

Sweet Sentiment Surf’s Up Retreat

This weekend I participated in the Sweet Sentiment Surf’s Up Retreat. I cannot say enough good things about Sweet Sentiment, and this virtual retreat was fantastic. Some digital images were provided, but the majority of the supplies were things I already had in my craft stash. The pacing was great. There were well-timed breaks throughout […]

Autumn Leaves

Fall is in the air. The temperatures are finally below 100 degrees here in southwest Utah. I’m thinking of the midwest, where the maple leaves will start turning yellow and red soon, and the air will be crisp. For this autumn colors swap at atcsforall, I decided to die cut leaf shapes out of different […]

Candyman and Helpers

For me, Gene Wilder will forever be the ultimate candy man. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, the 1971 film, was colorful and scary, and also the dream candy factory. For a recent candy-themed swap at atcsforall, I created cards featuring Willy Wonka and the Oompa Loompas. They are colored with Copic markers, have heat […]

Follow the Yellow Brick Road

I love this card. Love. I made it for a friend who is a collector of all things related to the Wizard of Oz. This cute stamp set is from CC Designs Rubber Stamps. Their tagline is “cleverly cute stamps and dies.” It is colored with Copic markers. The floral dies are from Sizzix. I’m […]

Bubbles!

I absolutely adore this ATC. The challenge for this swap on atcsforall was to create a card using bubble wrap somehow. I used it to stamp the background, using Distress Ink. The image is from Unity Stamps. It evokes the essence of childhood innocence and fun, blowing bubbles on a sunny day. I colored the […]

Unicorn Wishes

Sometimes the occasion calls for unicorns, rainbows, and fairies. These cards are crafted with Lawn Fawn products: Winter Unicorn stamps & dies, A Little Sparkle stamps & dies, and the Sunrise Backdrop die. The “birthday wishes” was heat embossed. Color was added with atyou Spica water based pigment markers.
