Product Spotlight: Halloween Spider Web



Product Spotlight: Halloween Spider Web


This may be a 1st for me. I ONLY used the Product Spotlight Stamp, no others!  I used Versamark ink to stamp the spider web and  white embossing powder.  I didn't want to cover up much of the spider webs so I just added some white ink around the edges and 7/8 purple grosgrain bow. Hopefully it's not too simple! It gets the job done, wishing someone a Happy Halloween.

World Card Making Day -Celebrate with DeNami!




It's time to celebrate World Card Making Day with DeNami!  Make sure you visit the DeNami Blog for all of the fun details.... including a chance to win a PRIZE!!
The Challenge picture is below.  I chose to go with Green Glitter and Polka Dots -- I actually combined them all into one!  I used a Glue Pad to create Gamma Green Glittered  Polka Dots!  I stamped the cake image and cut it out and foam taped it up to give the card some dimension.  Make a Wish was stamped using Cherry Pink Impress Ink.

DeNami Pin-spired


Isn't that a GORGEOUS fall bouquet.  I'm sure it was carried down the aisle by a stunning bride.  I loved the green accents up the side of the charcoal ribbon, so I tried using that on my card.


I've had this making memories embellishments for atleast 10 years - I know because I bought them when I lived in Idaho!  I guess it was time to use them finally!!  I thought the DeNami Garden Bouquet  would look great used with these fall colors.  I had a hard time coloring them though, since the picture was so pretty!  Did you know that DeNami is carrying embossing folders now?  I haven't gotten a chance to order any yet, but they have LOTS!!  Even a chevron one similar to the one I used on my card.

DeNami Product Spotlight: Pretty Paisley Set & Blog HOP



I can't believe I've never used this Paisley set before!! I was shocked when I went to stamp it, and realized it was brand new.  What have I been waiting for?!  I thought it would be a good stamp to make a masculine card, not too girl hopefully!  I stamped the paisley stamps onto the kraft cardstock.  Added a strip of washi tape to break up the stamped pattern and the circles.  I used the heartfelt greetings stamp set for the sayings. Layered the cream circles onto orange cirlces and foam taped them onto the lime green cardstock.

DeNami Product Spotlight: Friendly Robot

DeNami Product Spotlight: Friendly Robot
Make sure you visit the DeNami Blog for more ideas!


How adorable is the Friendly Robot stamp?  I wanted him to be the focal point of my card so I stamped him inside of a double circle and punched them out.  Added some patterned paper to the green card base and I was done!

DeNami September Blog Hop: Krazy for KRAFT

Welcome to the September Blog Hop: Krazy for KRAFT!
You should be arriving from Emily's Blog.  If not start out at the beginning by visiting the DeNami Blog.


I plan to make pillows for my formal living room in this color combo. Navy - Coral - Brown/Cream.
So I had to play along with the Muse Challenge this week - you can see Laurie's awesome card here.  Hopefully my card shows I was inspired ... and not a complete copy!  I loved the blue anchors stamped onto the coral cardstock, and how fun is that diagonal cut and sentiment? 
DeNami stamps used: Nautical Stamp Set, Circle Scallop, and teeny star.

Your next stop on the hop is to visit ANDREA!

DeNami Pin-spired Project



Are you Pin-spired by the photo? I hope so! If not, head on over to the DeNami Blog - the cards will knock your socks off! 



I was slightly intimidated and didn't know where to start on this project. I loved the photo, but then I was scared when I saw photos of my fellow design team gals creations!  I didn't think I could come anywhere close. I tried! 
I stamped the elegant floral wreath 3 times onto the aqua cardstock.   I colored in with copics. The white cardstock was stamped with the 3 line border and cherry pink impress ink alternated with orange washi tape.   7/8 hot pink grosgrain ribbon was tied around the card front.  I  thought I should add a sentiment, but my daughter said it was pretty the way it was.... so I left it.
