I had so much fun creating this super cute card for you today!


It uses two of my favorite companies products (who I happen to design for), a Miss Kate SVG and a sentiment stamped from Cardz TV.


I also used some of my enamel dots to accent it. Used paper scraps I had on hand and added some sheen to the hat and the broom with the shimmer brush from Close to my Heart! 


 Up next is my talented dt member and friend KIM

Witch you were here- CardzTV DT

Hello my crafty friends!

It's Connie here today to share my DT project for Cardz TV!

Today is the start of Cardz TV's Anything Goes Challenge and I have been busy creating fun things for Halloween!



 I used Mary's stamp set called Trick or Treat! Lots of Cricut cuts complete this card: the witch, spider, sentiment label and even the Polaroid frame all came from Cricut!
I used some foam tape to make the spider, witch and sentiment stand out.
My printed papers are digital from Miss Kate Cuttables and the cardstock from my stash. I added some bling ribbon and sequins to brighten it up.

You can enter the Cardz TV Challenge HERE!!

I can't thank you enough for checking out my blog today. It means the world to me and I hope you truly enjoyed it. May it inspire you to create something wonderful!   Scrappy Hugs!

Design Team: Dog's Life ;-)

Pin It    Hello, 
This is Veronica from Vicky's Scrapping Passion sharing with you a hybrid double layout I created using the NitWit collection Tailwags:



I call it hybrid because I printed out parts of this cute collection using my ink jet printer and colonial white card stock and cut out elements, which I used as embellishments, borders, and title for this layout. 

I will be posting later today more pictures at my blog: Vicky's Scrapping Passion, I hope you enjoyed this fun and easy to create scrapbooking layout.

The Whole Motley Crew

Pin It

Hi folks, it's Kim from Katydid Cards happy to be with you today.

Whew, where did September go?  I blinked and missed it!  But that's okay because I love making Autumn and Halloween cards.

Today I'm using an adorable kit from our sponsor, NitWit Collections.  I don't know if, as scrap bookers or card makers, you're familiar with NitWit, but they have such cute kits for any occasion.  Here's my card, just in time for Halloween:



This is the card, opened, so you can see "the whole motley crew", as the card is named.  These cuties are from the Halloween Hooligans kit as is the patterned paper.

If you haven't purchased from NitWit previously, they have the Fat Quarter Bundles, which would serve you well.  But if you want more options, as I do, you can also purchase additional background papers, called Halloween Hooligans Too.  There's also Alphawit-Hooligans Talk for coordinating letters and numbers,  Halloween Hooligans Solids and Lil Bits.  Everything you could possibly want or need.  And you can bundle it all for a saving of 20%.

If you'd like to take a closer look at the individual panels, I have pictures in the gallery on my blog where I also share more details about the construction of this card.   I do want to share the front and back panels with the sentiment with you just in case you don't want to travel to the gallery.


And here's the back, the sentiment comes from the NitWit kit as well.


Before I leave you, I want to remind you about the monthly challenge at Connie Can Crop.  This month the theme is "What the Hex!".  You are challenged to use hexagons on your project in some way.
http://conniecancrop.blogspot.com/p/challenges.html
One lucky winner, picked at random, will receive a great prize from our sponsor.  We also pick our three favorites and, if that's you, you get a badge to place on your blog or social media plus bragging rights.

You have until October 31st at 11:59 pm PST to enter...so go make something!!
