WINTER! 

Of course I decided to make a Christmas Card! I'm fully enjoying getting some fun, festive cards done before things get hectic ;) I went with a mini slimline card today, using the fabulous trees from the Solid Holiday Stamp Set (on sale!!) stamped in various colours of Krafty Kolour Inks - also on SALE in the specials category! 

I added a silhouette stamp of Santa and his reindeer as well as the adorable snowmen couple from the Holiday Village Stamp Set - one of my favs! 

A few pretty snowflakes decorate the background and I added a sentiment embossed in gold. Some pretty Nuvo drops decorate the trees as the finishing touch!

Mini Slimline Halloween Cards Collaboration!

 Hello again friends! I'm back today with two cute and not too spooky cards for Halloween. We've decided our family is going to stay home this year, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun!! I'm still making Halloween cards, we're going to have our own party with spooky treats, crafts and games and of course dress up and have candy! I'm super excited to share these cards with you using products my friend, Jennifer Smith from Close To My Heart, sent me to do a collab with her. I'd love for you to check her out - you can find her online at her Blog, Website, Facebook page and Instagram!! I'm using the awesome supplies from the Got Candy Bundle, which includes a stamp set, paper pack, sticker sheet, coordinating cardstock & sequins!!

I used the clear stamps from the bundle as my focal images, colouring them with Copic Markers and adding white gel pen highlights, some Stickles and Glossy Accents for even more fun!

The patterned paper from the bundle is so cool and worked perfectly to make mini slimline cards using the Photoplay #6 die. I cut the front stitched cardbase and then backed it with more of the papers included. I used some white embossing powder to heat emboss the Trick Or Treat sentiment from the stamp set and then used one of the fantastic pumpkin sequins from the coordinating mix. I absolutely love these 'handdrawn' stars and I know they'll be used a lot throughout the year!

The little haunted house is so cute!! I cut the door so that it would open and used more of those awesome ghost and spider sequins along with some glittery Stickles! I think the candy corn looks good enough to eat!!

For the second card I again created a mini slimline - seriously love this size at 3 1/2 x 6 1/2! The patterned paper is double sided so you have lots of choices for combinations, and I cut the cardbases from the coordinating cardstock from the bundle!

I heat embossed Happy Halloween on this card and stamped some of the solid stars from the set, using Wanderlust WOW Embossing Powder. It looked so cool, I had to use it with these delicious looking gumdrops too!! I stamped with Distress Oxide Ink, which stays wet long enough to emboss! I'm definitely going to be pulling out these stamps for Christmas too - and I may have to stop at the store for gumdrops. 😜

The little bat and pumpkin are adorable and they look like they are having a wonderful time!! These guys are a great size to use on your cards and scrapbook pages!!

Here's a look at all the goodies included in this fabulous Got Candy Bundle - and you can check out this Halloween Layout HERE for more inspiration using this kit!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to check out Jennifer and all the fun things in the CTMH Shop! I hope you have an amazing week friends!
