Hi Stampers!
Welcome back to another Broke Stampers Unite sketch challenge.
I actually had very little stamping for this card. The designs are from Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper! It is SOOO STINKIN' CUTE!
I used Basic Gray as a card base. The circle was punched form Gorgeous Grape card stock with the 2 1/4" circle punch; stamped with images from the Spooky Sweet bundle.
I cut apart a sheet of the DSP. I used one piece for the background layer. I cut a strip of spiders and a strip from the striped section. I fussy cut the cauldron, cat and frog from the paper as well. They are mounted with dimensionals.
Let's see what Carol and Terri created using this sketch. Terri's blog is here. Carol's is here. Please join us on Facebook, we would love to see your creations.
Until next time,
Happy Stamping!

Hi Stampers!
This week we are embossing with our Thinlit dies using the new Embossing Mats! I adore anything that lets me use my Big Shot even more than I already do.
I wasn't sure what I was going to create originally. You never know where a new technique will take you.
I grabbed my thinlits, embossing mats, and some green scrap card stock.
I used my Swirly Snowflakes dies. I embossed them on a Mossy Meadow card stock. Next I cut the shape out with the outlining thinlit.
I really liked how this piece came out. I wondered what it could be used for since it was a green snowflake design. Then it dawned on me, it would go great with the Festive Farmhouse DSP- Designer Series Paper.
I can't wait to see what Carol and Terri created this week and which dies they used. Carol's blog is here. Terri's is here. Join us on Facebook, we would love to see your creations.
Until next time,
Happy Stamping!

Hi Stampers!
Can you believe it is October? Where is the time going? The first challenge for Broke Stampers Unite is to make a Halloween or Fall card.
I originally going to do a fall card, but I wanted to use my new bat punch from the Spooky Sweet bundle.
I used my Woodland embossing folder, with Night of Navy and Pacific Point ink placed directly on the folder. I embossed it onto Balmy Blue card stock. I, also, used my Aqua painter to fill in any spots that didn't quite get inked properly.
I punched several bats out of Basic Black card stock. I placed the smallest rhinestones on each one for eyes. I think google eyes would be cute too, but I didn't want to run to the store.
Let's see what Carol and Terri created this week. I'm sure their cards are super cute! Carol's blog is here. Terri's blog is here. Please share your creations with us on Facebook.
Until next time,
Happy Stamping!
