Catch the bug challenge using the photo on their blog as inspiration http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/
This little image is witch in the kid section of their store - she is a digi and so cute.
I have entered this card in the following challenges:
1) if the shoe fits -halloween #94 http://iftheshoefitsscrapit.blogspot.com/
2) for fun - halloween http://forfunchallenges.blogspot.com/
3) sisterhood of crafters - halloween http://thesisterhoodofcrafters.blogspot.com/
4) paper penny #65 halloween http://pennyschallenges.blogspot.com/
5) stampin royalty - halloween http://www.stampinroyalty.blogspot.com/
6) top tip tuesday with a TIP http://toptiptuesday.blogspot.com/
7) Frosted Designs - http://frosteddesigns.blogspot.com/

TIP: when you cut out the image going close to the black line of the image you will always have a little white showing.. Take a black marker and go around the outline of the image so that it covers the white then it looks like you have a closer cut.. cleans it up really nice. On this one I did that but also glued her to the black background and cut around that so it's hard to see but the darker black is the cut image.
paper: recollection.. stamp: witch bugaboo/catch the bug.. accessories: stickers -boo, copics

Unscripted Sketch challenge #130 This is my card that for the sketch at Unscripted Sketches http://unscriptedsketches.com/
I thought it was time for a Get Well Soon card. This was fun coming up with the colors for the challenge and I thought the middle design needed a colored butterfly vs. the black one that is included on the stamp image. It kind of gives a shadow look.. I like it.. I'm on the design team so cant submit it but I will find others to fit it into..I hope. I also hope you play along we would like to see what you come up with. Please copy the sketch the best you can and make a project and submit it over at Unscripted sketches.

Over at Catch The Bug http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/ we (I'm the guest designer for Oct-Nov if you haven't heard :) have joined this week with The Greeting Farm and made "case" card and so you must check out the happenings at TGF http://www.farmfreshchallengeblog.blogspot.com/ Farm Fresh Challenge Blog for their sketch challenge.
This is the card I made using Hugh TGF image and assorted papers. the die is from MFT and copics.

This card is also for the challenge at Top Tip Tuesday: Layer it up http://toptiptuesday.blogspot.com/

TIP: When adding designer paper with a design on it, go ahead and run it through an embossing folder as I did the star paper I ran it through a star embossing folder (but it could be any design) it just gives an extra texture to an already pretty paper. I then lightly dusted it with an ink pad to bring out some of the embossed area.
