Card Share!

I have been busy making cards and thought I would share my creations! Making these has put me in a bit of a Halloween mood, even though it's still over a month away! Using the sketches from the MFT Getting Sketchy Challenges, I came up with two cute little cards.



This card is using MFT's Who's That Mummy stamp set, along with the DCWV Ghosts and Goblins Halloween stack. A couple of embellies from Michael's finishes this one off!



This little witch card uses the MFT Little Witch stamp set along with the same DCWV papers. Aren't they just adorable images?

And finally, my third card, which has nothing to do with Halloween, but I wanted to use this birdcage stamp set and sentiment. It's so pretty!




That's all I have to share today! Thanks for visiting and I hope you will join us for MFT Wednesday Sketch challenges over at SCS! You can win $15 towards anything at the MFT store!

Dressform Craze!!

I can not even begin to express how much I love dressforms. Seeing them gives me a nostalgic feeling and I can't help but to think about days gone by and imagine what it would have been like to wear beautiful gowns on a daily basis.

Then, I look down at myself and see my frumpy old t-shirt and unmatching pajama bottoms and I tell myself that if I can't wear them, I will surely make them!

Here are a few of the dressforms I have made in the past few weeks. On several of them, I used the Sewing Room Alterations die, as well as the Caged Bird die to make the hoop on the skirt.






So, hopefully you have been inspired to make some of these gorgeous creations! I would love to see what you come up with.
