Scrapping Cottage GDT

Today is my last post as a GDT for Scrapping Cottage.  I've had a blast working with these dies and sharing my projects with you.  I have a couple projects for today.

My first one is a lace ornament I created using Orante Circle Frame and a lace doily

and here is a different angle of the bow.  I cut out another one and made it look 3 dimensional

My second project, I used three different dies.  I used Trick or Treat, Spooky Fence and Kitties & tombstone

The Scrapping Cottage - Guest Designer

Yes you read that right. Today over at the Scrapping Cottage blog I am a guest designer.  If you have never heard of the Scrapping Cottage, you need to check them out!  Their dies are amazing and reasonably priced!

My card today uses Layered Flowers and for someone who doesn't usually make their own flowers, this die is a must have!!  I loved how easy it was to use and how nice they are when they are assembled!  I hope you enjoy my card today as much as I did creating it all for you.

Paper Makeup Stamps

Decided to join in on the DT Call/Challenge over at Paper Makeup Stamps this week.  They are offering up two digi's to use in the challenge, so I decided to use the fairy.  Have you ever sit down and have a great idea and then when it's done, you think WTH??  well this is that card for me this week!  I'm still posting it cause well I'm not perfect and figure what do I have to loose :/ now a lot of people use digis and there is a very good reason. Digis are so fun to work with cause you can manipulate them to fit your needs instead of being restricted. That is definitely one ofvtge many reasons why I love digis. :)

NOTE for the Paper Makeup Stamps DT coordinator, this is not my typical types of cards nor photo quality ;)
