This spooky card was extra fun for me to make because this color combination is one of my favorites for the Halloween season. I love the contrast the purple, green, and black create. It's very witches-brew-esque.
My favorite part of the card is the green puff paint on the green paper. It makes the paper look dimensional with the monochromatic scheme.

It's that time of year again, my favorite year in fact, and I'm so excited! I'm starting off with this funky (and extremely heavy weight-wise) card. That spider and cauldron are metal and suspiciously hefty. I used a bunch of bits and pieces I had from Halloween cards past and I love how it turned out.
I swear these felt skulls I bought a couple years ago are going to haunt me for forever because just when I think I'm about done with them I find more. I've always wanted a good ghost story, but this one isn't good so much as sad.

Today's card feels surprisingly whimsical despite the large dark skull gracing the front of it.
Once again, I got to use some embossing powder which I think looks pretty cool with the other raised and textured elements in the design. I'm using up scraps and still creating pretty pieces that I'm very proud of. So far this October Halloween countdown has been very productive!

The countdown continues with this funky Halloween card! It's mostly all made of scraps and other pieces I've had sitting around for far too long.
I'm trying to experiment more with color and try to branch out of the traditional Halloween colors for some of these. It's mostly an excuse for me to keep from going completely orange and black insane under the guise of creativity.

Cruise Album #9
The day this picture was taken I had woken up pretty sea sick, but it didn't take me long to figure out that floating in a pool on the ship actually helped quite a bit. While one of my favorite bands, Bowling For Soup, played poolside I happily floated around and got some sun. My friend was walking by and saw me so she took this picture before joining in.
I tried to use the same colors as previous pages and hoped the circles would be able to repeat the circle theme I have working throughout the album, even though I did something a little different with their arrangement.
The song for the day is from Bowling For Soup since they truly were the soundtrack of this photo.
