Bobbi's FAVE

Amy T.  provides a fabulous Halloween card with her distressed moon and spooky blended night sky. Using the Spooky Street stamp set, she stamps bats, tombstones, and tree to complete her background for the kitty witch from the Newton's Boo-tiful Night stamp set.  She embosses the sentiment from  the Spooky Street stamp set in white. She places this panel on Halloween-themed papers and finishes with twine!  Spook-tacular!

Debbie's FAVE

Sandi's use of the sketch as a gift-card holder is super fun!  She selects some wonderful Christmas colored papers--green and red--which make for an amazing setting on which she adds her ocean scene with it's boatload of holiday presents. This sweet image is from SEAs-on's Greetings stamps set (retired).  What a fun way to send some Christmas love!

Diane's FAVE

Avrawill creates a bold brightly colored background with a fun geometric design. She adds a light green panel on which she adds the cute koala from the Pina Koala stamp and die set. She adds twine to pull everything together for this fabulous card!

Sue's FAVE

Green-Eyed Goddess created an amazing background in rainbow colors which is perfect for the rainy image!  She uses Newton's Rainy Day stamp and die set. Her bright red and white umbrella is so bold as it keeps Newton and his frog and duck friend dry.  The grass with the little white hearts is a wonderful touch.  


Becky's FAVE

Amanda greats this amazing fall scene by using distress ink over the Falling Leaves stencil.  She then blends distress inks on her center panel and spritzes with water. Using the the Autumn Mice stamp and die set, she adds leaves flying in the wind with sweetly colored mouse chasing them.  She finishes with the sentiment and a trio of pumpkins.
