    Wicked Bubbly – A Halloween Card with a Twist!

    I just had to squeeze in one more Halloween card for this year!  For this one, I decided to think outside the box and repurpose a die set that wasn’t originally intended for Halloween. I love when we can stretch our supplies and get more use out of what we…

    Today’s project is one I created for the A Perfect Time to Craft monthly challenge. For October, Beat Paper was our amazing sponsor and provided me with the digital image for this card. As many of you know, I love making cards unique—no two exactly the same—so I’m always scouting…

    Craftoween 2025 – Day Thirteen Project: Coffin Finale

    We’ve reached Day Thirteen—the grand finale of Craftoween 2025! The final die was a coffin, and I wanted to give it drama. I started with a green background, softly dirtied with a black brush. The coffin itself was cut from black cardstock and brushed with Lost Shadow to highlight its…

    Craftoween 2025 – Day Twelve Project: Bubbling Cauldron

    Day twelve’s cauldron with witches’ feet was too cute to resist. I created a green background splattered with black acrylic paint for texture. The cauldron was cut from pearlized black cardstock, with scraps used for the bones and feet. For the bubbles, I wanted transparency with color, so I colored…

    Day Eleven’s haunted house is my favorite! The background features a late evening sky with Distress Oxide Black Soot and Rustic Wilderness, with white splattered stars using Dr. Ph Martin’s Bleed Proof White Paint. The haunted house has glowing windows colored with Gina K Wild Dandelion and Concord & 9th…

    Craftoween 2025 – Day Ten Project: Day of the Dead Floral

    Day Ten’s die set was a gorgeous floral inspired by Day of the Dead. I made one large bloom as the focal point, then surrounded it with smaller florals and sprigs from other Spellbinders sets. Using scraps for the flowers gave me a rainbow of options, and black half-back pearls…

    Day Nine delivered the sweetest little monster. I couldn’t help but make him the star! The sweet little monster card used pearlized black paper for the main background and a spiderweb cut from the inside of a scalloped frame die for the small backdrop. The monster was cut from blue…

    Craftoween 2025 – Day Eight Project: Skeleton Mug with Ghosts

    Day Eight featured a skeleton mug with ghosts, and I leaned into a simple but effective design. I framed the scene with a scalloped stitched frame over orange patterned paper. For the mug, I added shading with a brown ink brush to give it depth. Multiple ghosts floated up like…
