Priscillastyles' Flash the Cat Sugar Crash

I just had to make this card with a new digi stamp from priscillastyles-store! His name is Flash, and he is just too funny! I think he ate too many chocolate mice from his Halloween Trick or Treating. hehe
Priscilla has made another of these with an uncolored mask, and also one

that is not for Halloween. And there is even an "Angel Not" cat. She's also got lots of other new digis on her site, so check it out. I made the sentiment on my computer.

The color scheme is from Papercrafts Connection - Color Inspiration Challenge#9.

Bronzed Thanksgiving SC351

This card is for today's Splitcoaststampers' Sketch Challenge - SC351. I heat embossed the sentiment and leaves with detail gold ep, and dry embossed the bronze metal with my swirl cuttlebug ef.

Bookmarkers CC341



I was going to make the blue bookmarker today anyway, so thought I'd try another using today's Splitcoaststampers' Color Challenge - CC341 - tempting turquoise, pumpkin and olive green. My colors might be a little off, but here it is. Stamped dandelions from Hero Arts (one of my favorite stamps) in white pigment ink, then heat embossed with detail white ep. Sponged with inks to resist. Backed with Birds and Vines cuttlebug folder on whitewashed core'dinations paper, then sanded so birds and vines show up in the blues. tfl

This card is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge - MMSC122. The sunflower and the butterfly digital stamps can both be found at priscillastyles-store.
Other challenges:
1. Splitcoaststampers' CC341 - old olive, tempting turquoise, pumpkin;

Autumn Thank You FTL158 C4C105

This card was inspired by this week's challenge - C4C105 - at http://crazy4challenges.blogspot.com/, to create a card or project with a pumpkin on it. The sketch is this week's sketch -FTL158 - at http://cleanandsimplestamping.blogspot.com/. I stamped the little leaf stamp from Inkadinkadoo all over my crumb cake cs with gold ink, heat embossed with detail gold embossing powder, and colored in with chalks and a q-tip. Did pumpkin the same way on some dp. The dp behind the pumpkin panel is recycled wallpaper sample. Hope you like it. tfl
