Just a quick post today as we have Ollie today, we go away tomorrow for 10 days and I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon. Desperately trying to get on top of my 'to do' list...

On my desk easel is the journal page from the featured post above
and also the journal page from here




We have always celebrated Halloween - always as a bit of fun - as it is my sister's birthday. This year she will be 75 and I am sad that I will miss the party!

My favourite fold at the moment for cards is the corner flip - I have made a lot - this was one:


Hope to visit you all later  - last week I was particularly unsuccessful. Will have a look for my first WOYWW post before we go away...


Happy WOYWW!


Creative Warriors Inspiration Team - New Term #10


This is my next inspiration for the Creative Warriors Inspiration Team 

with Michelle Grant Designs

You will see our inspirational creations on the Facebook Group

This time I have used my black journal with images from

Twilight


and the bodies from paper dolls



1. First layer is one of the backgrounds.


2. Again I forgot to save as a png in this photo so I got the google shimmers...but I added Tim Holtz ghost die cuts to this first page.


3. I like to add belly bands, flip outs and pockets to my journal pages. To this page I have added a three pocket fold out... On untying the ribbon the bottom flip comes down. I added a cat button to this.

4. Three pages fold out...


5. On the other side of these are three pockets with witches and one witch glued in place. These were made using the paper doll shapes decorated with papers from my stash and cut out hats.


6. Here you can see the witches out of the pockets.

Here's my Christmas project...for the Challenge #477 at Addicted to Stamps and More

Although this has been on my desk since September 1st, I totally forgot about it - so I am late posting!

For this card I used a cream card blank matted with two papers from my stash.
I then added the printed image, and die cut sentiment.



This image is the freebie for the Gecko Galz Christmas Challenge and I will link this card there...
