Getting ready for fall!

Anyone else feeling like 

fall is right around the corner?

This past weekend I spent a little time

in my craft area to create.

My first card was inspired by a shaker card

I saw on Pinterest and I had every

intention of creating a shaker card BUT I

forgot to adhere the clear plastic

to my top layer on my shaker!!!

DUH!  Oh well - on to plan B!

I just adhered the sequins on my

card to add a bit of fun.

Here is a side view showing you how much

dimension this card has - I love it.

I used Cardztv Spooky Sayings for my sentiment.

My next card also has a fall theme.

I've been dying to try my "new to me" Distress Oxide inks.

A stamper friend was selling a lot of her supplies

online and I was able to grab about 10 of them.

Check out my cool leaf SHAKER card!

I started by putting 3 different colors of ink on

my paper blending each color into the other one.

Then I spritzed my card with a little water

and right before my eyes, the ink CHANGED into

almost a suede look!  It was so cool.

Here's a closeup of the card.

My sentiment came from Cardztv Mini Messages!!!

I love that stamp set so much, it never gets stored away -

it just stays on my stamp desk!

Thank you for stopping by today!

Please don't think summer is over - I was

just in the mood to start thinking fall!

Get crafty!
