"FALL FUN" by Cardz TV Stamps:

"FALL FUN" Cardz TV Stamps I so love this stamp set. The Pumpkin is paper pieced. all the patteren paper is DCWV Harvest Gathering paper. Cardz TV Stamps really does make crafting fun and easy. This card is a 3x3 inch card. I do believe the yellow mat is 2 1/2x2 1/2. The rosette is cut at 1x10 I think. Sorry I dont remember and cant find the paper I wrote the info down on. I have a video on the rosette which can be seen HERE

 

Here is the inside of the card. I used the same mat as on the front. I also added the white stich marks on both the inside and outside of the card.

 

I hope you have be inspired to take this challenge this week at Cardz Tv. I cant wait to see what everyone makes. Thank you for stopping by and please head over to Cardz Tv.

When I think halloween I always think of Ichabod. You know the legend of sleepy hollow. Well when we were asked to create a halloween theme project I knew I had to do something with Ichabod. So the search started and I found this digi on ETSY. The guy who made this Rick St. Dennis. You can find this digi HERE or find more of his work HERE. More important is I used Cardz Tv Stamp Set "Oct 31" and her can find it HERE

World Card Making Day

If you are looking for Cradz Tv Stamp Challenge "Button and Boos" click HERE

Today is World Card Making Day. So I did what any card maker does and made a card. I hope you like what I made, but before I post my card I wanted to post a video that I made Thursday night. Its not perfect but it was fun making it. My oldest daughter even helped by holding my phone to record it. So thank you Katie.
 

Ok and now for my card, using the rosette I made in the video.

 

When I made this card I was just playing around with an old book that was falling apart and ended up with this card. I think it turned out great. So am going to enter this into Pause Dream Enjoy Unexpected Crafting Challenge!

 

Also I used Cardz Tv "Encouraging Thoughts" Stamp set which you can find HERE

 

Until Next Time

For today I made a TP Mini album. This is my first offical mini that I have made and am really pleased with the way it turned out. I cant wait for halloween to happen so I can take photos of my girls trick or treating. I plan to use this mini for photos I take using instagram.

Here is the cover of the mini. I used Cardz Tv Stamp set "Oct 31"

 

Here is the the inside cover and 1st page On the inside cover I used "Oct31" for the 1st page I used "Ticket Talk" and "Happy Days"

 

Here is the sencond and third page. I used "Oct 31" for the "Boo to you"

 

Here is the fourth and fifth page. I didnt use any stamps on it because I wanted to make sure to leave plenty of room for photos beside on the tags.

 

And now for the back cover. On the back cover I used "Ticket Talk" and "Oct 31"

 

Well that is my project for today. I hope you enjoyed it. It was a blast to make and now plan to make one for thanksgiving. And with Cardz Tv Stamps its makes it easy to find the right sentiment to use. So please take this challenge and check out Cardz Tv Stamps.
