Lost in Translation

Where have you been??? What can I say I have been a busy bee and I have just sat down since October!
I had a great retreat with a great bunch of ladies. The holidays just rolled by and we have been stuck on hold in a Polar Vortex, might I say this is the first year in my 50 years of life hearing that word! Ridiculous!

Well once again I am gearing up for my SPRING FLING! 32 cards in a glourious day of stamping.

I love this card inspired by Karen Burniston a litlle fishing line and using the magnetic plate and the labels collection framelits and chalk talk framelits create a great frame to fly this ghost. DSP was the Witches Brew. I used the owl punch to create the ghost.

Happy Haunting!

Guess What? She's Back!
My posting has been so eratic I am sorry so lets say this is the newest creation I have made from the new Holiday Catalog. So here's the recipe.
Base card Basic Black cut 4.25 x 11 embossed with the MODERN MOSAIC  folder.
Cut or use any scrap card stock and cut it to 3 x 4.25 You will be covering it with the paper so yeah use the scraps. Then cut your designer paper 2.5 x 3 and complimentary color card stock I used Basic Black, Starfruit, Pumpkin, Basic Gray, Very Vanilla, and Smokey Slate. Then lay them on the cutter and cut corner to corner. These create long triangles. When all that is done I embossed each solid color card stock with a different embossing folder. Now separate each style of paper in groups. I used the ANYWHERE GLUE STICK to adhere the papers to the 3 x 4.25 piece of card stock. Why? Because it is easier and dries faster. The straight side of the triangle will always be to the left. Just butt the papers up to each other with the tip being in the center. Once they are all glued down let them dry then trim around the square. I then cut strips .50 x 4.25 and using the MULTIPURPOSE LIQUID GLUE to add to the 3 x 4.25 piece of card stock. I also used the multipurpose glue to glue that whole piece to the card because it holds better than snail.Now to cover up the center point you could stamp anything and layer it onto a coordinating punch I used the DSP and the mini punch to center. Added a little Bling with BASIC JEWELS. To finish I stamped the Ticket on starfruit using HALLOWEEN BASH 130580 with STAZON. Then used the TICKET BUILDER PUNCH and popped it up with DIMENSIONALS. Glad you all liked it!
Happy Stamping Brenda
