Prayers Are With You

Good Afternoon! 

This card will be entered into the following Challenges:

Can You Handle The Pressure?, Fall--Optional Twist.
Hero Arts, Die-Lightful (use dies).
Poppystamps, Anything Goes.



I find it easier to make a feminine Sympathy card 
rather than a masculine one, but here goes.....





Hero Arts Prayers stamp and die set.
PTI Scallop Frame die.
Sizzix 3D Embossing Folder.
Poppystamps Drifting Feathers dies.






I die cut some feathers out of card stock, 
gold foil paper and some out of Vellum.
I also added gold foil directly to a couple of the ends of the feathers.
I also added gold foil to half of the prayers die cut.
Gold Embossing Powder (sentiments).
Heidi Swapp  Gold Colorshine.





Power Poppy Soothing Sympathy stamp set.


I guess it's masculine enough.



Thank you for strolling by!

Enjoy~~

Haunted Houses

 Good Morning!  

This card will be entered into the following Challenges:

Simon Says Monday, Create Your Own Background.
Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes!





I had all of the Distress Oxide inks out so I kept on playing!
Miscellaneous Halloween dies.
This set had 3 different Haunted Houses in it, so I used them all.
The grass is from a Magnolia Doo Hickey Magazine.
Black Paint Splatters. 
Inks in; Spiced Marmalade, Peeled Paint and Wilted Violet.



I created a round template for my moon, by cutting some stencil material 
with a Spellbinders Standard Circle die.
Then I masked off my paper with it and began sponging the Distress Oxide inks all over.  While I had the 'moon mask' I also splattered Black Paint all over.
House is backed with a bright Yellow card stock to create the light glow.
Sentiment by Gina K Designs stamp set, Wicked.
Tuxedo Black ink.
Clear Embossing Powder.

Created the same way.
Thought the grass should be trimmed on the front of the house--NOPE!
Don't like that look!
