Freaky Friends-3-D Thursday

    This cute little box was made using the new Gift Box Punch Board.  It is the littlest size you can make and uses a 6 by 6 sheet of paper.  I am picturing some M& M's or a couple Hershey Treasures inside.  This was one of the choices stampers could choose from at my Hooray for Halloween class.

 

I used the new Kraft paper to cut out the box, but decorated it using Versa Mark and one of the stamps from the Holiday Invitation stamp set.

 

What would you put in this cute little box?

Freaky Friends- Wednesday Wow

   Do you wonder how those splotches in the background of this card are made?  They are made using a fun technique I found on the site called The Friday Mashup and here is the simple way you can make them yourself.

1. Drop a small amount of reinker on a section of cardstock.  I used white and the colors Basic Black, Blackberry Bliss, and Tangelo Twist.

2. Take a straw and blow as hard as you can onto the reinker dot.  Move the card around and blow everywhere you see some wet ink.

3. Drop another color close the the last one you used and continue the process until you get the look you want.

  When I looked at my finished background all I could think of was using the eyes from Freaky Friends and emboss them in gold.  I loved my finished card.  What do you think? 

  Check out this challenge site called Fab Friday and enter a card of your own design using their current challenge.

Freaky Friends-Template Tuesday

  I like to take a template and use it in many different ways.  I took the template I used yesterday, turned it on its side and then created this card.  This is one of my favorites and here's why....

1. I was able to use a little bit of the tree on one of the pages of the Motley Monsters designer paper for my up and down focus.

2. I stamped all the little monsters from Freaky Friends that I had not used before and decided they might look cute standing on each other's heads.

3. The saying looked cute in a word bubble.

  Check out yesterdays post and see if you can notice how I changed up the template.

Freaky Friends, Miscellaneous Monday

    Does this cute witch make you smile like she does me? I made this card for the challenge on the Freshly Made Sketches site. 

    Are you wondering how I got such great colors on the witch?  Well, I cut her and the bats out of one of the sheets of the Motley Monsters designer paper that matches the stamp set Freaky Friends. I knew this card needed some kind of a background and decided the Lucky Stars embossing folder was just right.  The saying came from the Good Greetings stamp set that any hostess can get free with a $300 order.
    Look for some more cards this week, made with Freaky Friends this week's featured stamp set.

Freaky Friends-Simple Sunday

  Another trip to Ohio, a successful garage sale with my daughter, and now back to stamping.  This week, I am going to feature Freaky Friends in my postings.  I thought I would start out with a cute but simple card.  Where did I find this idea, why looking on Pinterest of course. 

1. Cardstock is cut from a 12 by 12 sheet of Whisper White sized 3 by 6. 

2. Designer paper from Back to Black cut 3 by 3 is attached to the top of the notecard.

3. Vellum cardstock cut 3 by 3 is attached on the left hand side of the card front with 2 glue dots. 

Now, how easy is that.

Other supplies used:

White and Tangerine Tango two-toned trim
Memento Black ink stamped directly onto the vellum
Freaky Friends stamp set
 
   I think these will be my October thank you cards.  They are so cute and so easy.
