September Ink or Dye

Taking a moment to share what I did for the Ink or Dye meeting this month. We didn't swap last month so we had double the swaps this month. The first is my take on "Free Wheeling." Makes you think of Max the pig, right?

Next is "Yikes Stripes!" For this one I did something I never ever did before - I used a sketch from a blog! Made it so easy to create the card. See the sketch here.

When I was making this card, I forgot about the square behind the circle so one of the two had no square... ooops!

I felt a little less than inspired by the ATCs I created. This one is "Rock n Roll Heaven." I printed out the words to the song, stamped the image on vellum and - well, you can see how it went together.

Last of all is the ATC I did for "Movie Props."

September Paper Trail

Welcome to the first edition of the Paper Trail blog hop! We are a group of Close To My Heart consultants working together to bring you cards, layouts, and other art featuring a different Close To My Heart paper packet each month. If you arrived here from Erica's blog you are on the right trail!

This month's featured paper packet is Hooligans, a bright and festive paper packet that is perfect for Halloween. I made a little 4x4 wallet album that is perfect for all your hooligans' little Halloween photos.

I couldn't decide what stamps to use so I used everything I have!
