For the Love of Brandon

This card is made for this challenge:
Cooking With Cricut Card Outreach




Since he likes Spiderman, I made him a Spiderman card similar to one I made last year which you can see here Spiderman Card.
This is a 4.25 X 5.5 inch card. I inked the yellow base with different colors to simulate a sky at sunset. I printed the spiderman on glossy photo paper and cut him out. I put him on an Action Wobble so he "moves".  The spiderweb is cut from Happy Hauntings cut at 9.5 inches and I added Stickles. 

For the inside, I printed a quote from the movie onto white card stock on my printer and added it to an orange cardstock base.

This is such a worthwhile cause, I encourage everyone to participate.

Spider on the web

A quick  5 x 5 cardwith Martha Stewart's Punch Around the Page. The spider and web from Happy Hauntings page 102 Layer 2 feature.  Some Stampin' Up Dazzling Diamonds on the web and some Glossy Accents and Ruby Red Stickles on the Spider. 

I should have let the Glossy Accents dry better because some glitter stuck to my spider!  I punched out a circle and glued the web to it so that I could put it on an Action Wobble!  Now my spider web wiggles!  Fun, quick card.

Skeleton

I loved the card Maria did for the My Pink Stamper Designer's post (http://www.mypinkstamper.com/2011/08/my-pink-designers-august-post.html).  So I had to use the
skeleton in a card of my own!  Here is my card:

This is a 5 x 7 card. The cute skeleton is from Paper Doll Dress Up and is on page 53 under Accessories 3. He looks a little crooked but he's on an Action Wobble. I added a couple of black pearls for his eyes.
The paper is from DCWV Midnight Spell stack that I bought last fall.  The tree is also from Paper Doll Dress Up on page 52 the shift option of Accessories 3.  
The moon was just a circle punch and the fence is my new Martha Stewart punch. 
The inside phrase is from Happy Hauntings page 30 the Phrase feature.  I used the phrase and shadow.
I added a little Glossy Accents to  a couple of the black birds and a dab of black diamond Stickles to the spider web on the fence.

This was a fun card to make and the "dancing" skeleton is too cute!  May have to make a couple more of these!

Spiderman Card

Oh my goodness.  This was a long post that I did yesterday and after Blogger's issues last night, it has completely disappeared! :"(   Now I 've got to try and remember everything.

My cousin asked me to make a Spiderman card for her son's birthday.  I thought of several options but ended up printing this image from the internet on glossy photo paper.  I glued it to white card stock to add some strength to it.  Then I cut it very close and inked the edges to cover the white. 

I took a white 5 x 7 card base and added a pale yellow layer.  Then I took my Color Box cat's eye inks in Yellow Oche, Tangerine, Terra Cotta and Lipstick and blotted them all over the paper. I inked the edges of the card with the Lipstick ink.

I cut the spider web out of Shimmery Navy paper from PaperTrey Ink at 8 inches from the Happy Hauntings cartridge on page 102 Layer 2 image. I ran my Zig 2Way glue over it and sprinkled it with Stampin' Up Dazzling Diamonds glitter (my all time fav).  I attached it to the front of the card and trimmed the edges down to the size of the card. 

I then attached Spiderman with an Action Wobble to give him some dimension and movement.

For the inside of the card, I picked PaperTray Ink's Pure Poppy Paper and again with my Color Box Cat's eye inks blotted it.  The colors were Yellow Ochre. a medium purple and a royal blue color (the color name has rubbed off of the lid) to give it the look of a sunset.

 It seemed most of the pictures of Spiderman have city buildings in them, so I added this City Scape from Plantin SchoolBook page 69 (it looks like New York City with the World Trade Center twin towers to me).  I cut this from a the same dark navy shimmer paper from PaperTrey Ink. 

The Happy Birthday sentiment is a favorite of mine from Beyond Birthdays on page 96.  The top layer in a shimmer purple paper from PaperTrey Ink and the shadow in the same navy paper as the City Scape and the spider web.

I really like the way this card turned out.  It really looks good in person. The inking really made a big difference.

Halloween Treat Bags

Paper from DCWV Midnight Spell.  Martha Stewart Stamp around the Page punch Spider web.  Cuts are from Happy Hauntings cartridge.

If the boot fits...

This turned out to be the cutest card in person.  Hopefully the photo captures some of it.  The boot is from page 51 of the Happy Hauntings cartridge.  As soon as I saw that on the cartridge, I knew I had to have it. The card base is a glittered DCWV premade card.  The around the page web punch is Martha Stewart.  The background paper is from DCWV Midnight Spell.  The ribbon is Celebrate It - Halloween from Michaels.  I added Platinum stickles for the buttons on the boot.  The sentiment was printed on the computer and cut out with SU's modern label punch.  I am really proud of this card.

Halloween treat boxes

These were inspired by a Featured Project by Roree Rumph in the last edition of the Cricut Chirp newsletter.

I accidentally got two pictures of the pumpkin but the other side was the spider like on the other two boxes.
These were filled with candy and given to my friends at our Stampin' Up meeting.
If the paper stuffing looks familiar, it is because it came in my Cricut Circle package!

BOO

What have I been doing today?

The Pennants were made with the Independence Day Cartridge.  Everything else came from Happy Hauntings.  The "BOO" background was welded together but I cut the letters apart.  The pennants were cut a 7" and the Boo at 3 1/2". The background for the letters is from the 3-D table on page 70 cut at 4".  The ghost I think was cut at 4" and the Happy Halloween was at 1 1/2" and the witch was 2".  The flowers are two friskars punches with a dot of ice stickles for the center.  The edges are the Martha Stewart spider web punch.  All of the paper was from DCWV Midnight Spell stacks.
