Trick or Treat with Digital Delights

Halloween is coming up and thought I would make a card for my sister-in-law.  Even though this card has a cute character I made it to be more adult-like with the designer paper from Memory Box - Blackbird.  This paper is a little darker, more spooky. I also followed this weeks Mojo Monday sketch.





I don't have many orange embellishments so I ended up making my own flower using the technique I posted about last year. Of course I had to add a little orange Stickles.

Card Recipe
Paper: Garden Green, Graphic 45, Basic Grey Boutique Shopping
Markers/Ink: Copics - E00, E11, E13, E21, E23, E25, E50, C1, YR01, YR12, YR14, YR18, G02, G05, G09, Distress Brushed Corduroy
Embellishments: Spellbinders Label Four, Square, and Scalloped Square, Really Reasonable Ribbon colored with Distress Tea Dye, Prima pearls, Made my own flower with EK Success Retro Flower punches and MS Leaf punch, Orange Stickles

Hostess Monday at Digital Delights

Over at Digital Delights I am the Hostess Monday Designer this week.  I decided to show off some of my Digital Delights scenic cards.  Since making scenes is one of my passions I thought I would share how I have used Digital Delights images to make all kinds of different scenic cards.

Hop over to Digital Delights to see the whole post, but I thought I would show you three of my all time favorites step card scenes.
