Boo!

Happy Halloween All - here is a card I made while playing with my Bird Crazy Stamps.

I used a Tim Holtz Tag stencil as a stamp and inked it up with Distress inks and spritzed it with water. The bird and accessories were stamped with Archival Ink and coloured them with Distress Markers and a paint brush. This was all worked on water colour paper. The letters were cut with a Sizzix die.

Using the same technique I made the following cards:

Happy Halloween and thanks for looking

Inspired by several different layout ideas I have gathered together in my mind, I created this layout which I later adapted for the Papermaze crop. It is a photo of my daughter Catherine from a photo shoot she had back in March 2013 - this one is for Catherine's album.

I used:

Hope you enjoyed the crop those of you who could make it. It is always lovely to see so many variations of the layout come together. We had a great day as usual thanks Vanessa.
