a little scene

I don't know about you, but I was a bit overwhelmed on World Card Making Day. 

Visiting blogs, Facebook, and stamp sites to see what everyone was sharing. 

Trying to take advantage of some one day discounts, participating in challenges. 

I did stumble onto Ellen Hutson's CLASSroom with several artists sharing techniques and hosting challenges with a one week deadline. Works for me!

Here is my little square card for the Scene It Challenge by Kittie Caracciolo.

I used the Modern Landscape die from Memory Box and gave it some color

with thinned out distress inks. The background card was also painted with distress inks and I mounted the landscape with some dimensional foam.

The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.

Here's a closer look at the colored house and trees.

I'll also be entering this in Simon Says Stamp Challenge to use dies or punches.

Thanks for visiting today!

World Cardmaking Day 2012

Happy World Card Making Day! Today I'm sharing holiday cards that I made with

 Purple Onion Design's noteblock stamps--and I have a giveaway, too!

The noteblock stamps make for quick cards. For both cards, I white embossed and 

ink distressed in a variety of distress ink colors. 

I added some paper punched leaves for the Thanksgiving card 

and some bats to finish off the Halloween card.

Michele has graciously allowed me to giveaway a Halloween noteblock to one of my blog followers.

If you would like a chance to win the noteblock stamp, simply leave me a comment on this post from now until October 9th and I'll draw and announce a random winner on October 10th.

I'll add some extra goodies, too.

Also, for you Stacey Yacula fans, her holiday stamps will be available soon! The design team got a sneaky peek and all I can say is that they are over the top A-DORABLE! 

Thanks so much for stopping by and celebrating World Card Making Day!
