Little 3x3 love notes are the perfect sized card to attach to baby gifts. Such a nice size for a small present and easy to make! It seems like I have so many friends having babies lately. These cards have come in handy!
Funny enough, I used this GDP206 sketch to make these cards. I’m playing along this week instead of designing for the Global Design Project. I was a little late getting my projects posted. OOPS!
Last night to play along. More info on the Global Design Project Blog.

Hey there, pumpkin! We have a super fun sketch challenge for you over at the TGIFchallenges blog.

The spiderweb paper is from the Monster Bash Designer Series Papers and the Halloween word die cut is fro meh Well Written Dies. A full list of supplies can be found below.

Playing around with Harvest Hellos today for the Stamping Through The Catalog challenge. #STTChallenge
This card turned out darling! The pumpkin and leaves are colored using Stampin’ Blends. The darling frame in the background is from the Ornate frame dies and the Buffalo background stamp creates that fun plaid in the background.
What do you think? This set might need to make it into your collection.

GETTING INKY WITH IT. This month we are playing with ink refills. Pure solid ink. Refills are awesome and can be used for way more than reinking your dry ink pads. I use them all the time to watercolor with. They can be used to dye ribbon and paper. They can be mixed with embossing paste to easily add color. They can be added into a mister with drops of water or alcohol for spritzing on projects. Seriously, they are the best.
I’ve used them to create a fun and somewhat creepy background on this monster Halloween Card. It’s like this card is growing eyeballs and soon it will become monster …

Do you like this look and want to try it? Here’s how I created the background. You’ll need Pool Party and Pretty Peacock ink refills.
Create a water wash on a piece of watercolor paper using an aqua painter. Cover the entire sheet in water.
Add a couple small drops of Pool Party ink refill onto the wet watercolor paper. Tip the paper back and forth so the ink moves and swirls and covers the entire sheet. I was gong for full ink coverage with some areas darker than others. Use an aqua painter to help the process along if needed. Here is a super quick video showing what I mean.
With an aqua painter pick up full strength Pretty Peacock ink. Randomly touch the background with the tip of the brush and watch the ink bleed. The water the paper is the more the ink will bleed.
Once dry add google eyes to the center of the ink drops.
The Raven Halloween card - Charlet Mallett, Stampin’ Up!
I created a second background for this Raven card following step 1 & 2 from above. I only used Pretty Peacock for the background. The Pretty Peacock background has the look of an eerie night sky. Peacock is my HERO color on this card. It is the color I decided to build the entire look around.
