Handmade Paper Hugs

The new SNS Gal Desdemona is perfectly creepy.  The cute little make-believe witch has nothing on her, for sure. Still, she is brave enough to trick or treat. For this card I used  Gal Desdemona  Halloween is back (door + girl) Halloween room add-on (pumpkin candle) Lovin' from the coven (sentiment) Thanks so much for stopping by, and happy crafting!

  EEEEK! It's almost that time of year, peeps!  Today is release day at Sweet November Stamps and you don't want to miss out on everything spooky and creepy but also cute and fun.  Don't forget that we have an Insta-hop this weekend where you could win the entire new release, so hop on over!  I have to say it took me a long time to open up to Halloween. It's not something that I was used to celebrate as a kid. But at some point I couldn't resist anymore, and now with my daughter loving Halloween and all things creepy and gory, I absolutely love this season. Almost as much as Mermay 🤪 For my first card I used "Lucinda's Lair" and this set is absolutely incredible! Lucinda is so adorable and I used a bunch of the tiny and smaller stamps in the set to create this fun scene. Lucinda is using her witchy magic to make those vials and bottles float to her cauldron. She is stirring up something spooky for sure. I also used Sorsha's Spell room (new release...

This weekend we're revisiting past Halloween clear stamps at Sweet November Stamps!  I know, it's a bit early, but I love Halloween! All the spooky and creepy displays and outfits. Here in Denmark not everyone has embraced the tradition, but more join in every year. It's the kids that get us grown ups, who never had this seasonal treat as kids, involved.  And so, I had to create this scene. 5 friends all dressed up as super heroes, fairies and in more tradional Halloween outfits. They set out to trick or treat, but behold, no super hero outfit will make them brave enough to visit the haunted mansion on the hill 😱 I cannot tell you how much fun I had creating this scene! I hope you like it!  I used  Halloween is back (5 friends + sentiment)  Horizon lines: Spookville (gate + treeline)  Horizon lines: Spookville Expansion pack (mansion + moon)  Background builder: Spooky tree (bats)  Thanks so much for stopping by, and happy crafting!  Tina...

(Ad) Last weekend there was a new digital release at Sweet November Stamps. It's called Last days of summer and included 4 different images of girls enjoying their summer.  I wasn't able to create in time for the release, but I just couldn't resist Skylar. Especially since last weekend, coming home from our summer holiday, we brought our new pup, Simba. Our old boy Gomez sadly passed about a month ago, and the house has been way too quiet. I knew I wanted to create this card for my daughter, and the pup is colored to look like our little Simba, but I wasn't sure how to go about the background layout. I was thinking that I could color our garden, but it would be so heavy in greens. Looking for a sentiment I stumbled over an old MFT DT card by Adelle Emery, and I really liked the dispersed white on white hearts, so all credits to her.  The heart cut is from MFT Paw Prints, and sentiment from New best friend. Copics used  E13, E11, E21, E00 + R32 + BG53 E44, E43, E51 Y21, ...

Hey Rammy's! Today I'm sharing this adorable "Storytime" forest scene of Mr. Fox reading a bedtime story for forest friends. How adorable is this scene? I absolutely love it! I die cut the colored scene using a Mod Square die from My favorite things and adhered it on top of a square piece of patterned paper from Maker Forte/Alex Syberia.  I popped this up over a panel that I'd embossed using Tim Holtz Lumber embossing folder and then run over with a brown ink to accent the texture.  As a final touch I added a few gems and a sentiment from Hero Arts.
