Halloween Chickies - NEW DeNami Stamps!

The DeNami blog has had a lot of activity the last few weeks. Hopefully you have been following along. Lots of card samples, sneak peaks of the new stamps, and giveaways.  Check it out, if you haven't already.
The new line of stamps are fabulous, lots of fun images and variety.  Some of my favorites are the halloween stamps.  How cute are these little trick or treat chickies?  I used a web and the boo image in white ink on black cardstock to create the background paper.  And do you see that fabulous purple peeking from behind??  That is a new color this season. I can't tell you how excited I am to see that color! LOVE it!! The orange ribbon is perfect for all of the fall and halloween cards we will be making soon.

DeNami Featured Product Challenge- Rosevine Heart



It's time for another DeNami Featured Product - The Rosevine Heart stamp. You can see all of the cards made by the design team on the DeNami blog.  I fell in love with DeNami stamps over a decade ago... I think it was about 14 years ago.  I loved the images, and how pretty they were when they were embossed.  I could ramble on and on, but I chose to emboss this gorgeous heart in silver because I love it so much! This card is simple, but hopefully stunning at the same time.  I used a silver Brilliance pad and DeNami clear embossing powder.  I used Tombow markers to add some color onto the back of the vellum- see picture below.  Finished off with the quickie glue pen and extra fine glitter.

All supplies from DeNami:
Stamp: Rosevine Heart
Paper: Silver, Sage, Vellum 
Misc:   Sheer Lavender Ribbon, Iridescent Edge White Ribbon. Clear Embossing Powder, Silver Brilliance Pad, Heat Gun, Tombo Markers

Taylored Expressions Sketch #114

Taylor's sketches are always fun - this is #114, that is a lot of sketches. I always have a hard time placing buttons randomly, you'd think it would be the easy part.  This is the large chickie from DeNami. Goes perfectly with the Just chickin' up on you stamp.  This is a short post - my kids only have 3 days left of school, so we have lots of end of year functions & projects.  I can't believe how fast the school year went!

Papertrey Paper Dolls Challenge #5 & CAS Sketch

Why not combine two great challenge into one card - right?  Papertrey Paper Dolls Challenge #5 was a color challenge. Hawaiian Shores, Berry Sorbet & Chocolate Brown.  The Clean and Simple Sketch FTL #91 was a super fun sketch. I somehow forgot to add the sentiment, but love how the embossed dots add texture anyway.   The DeNami Chocolate Brown Glitter Ribbon is so fabulous in person, too bad it doesn't look as great in this photo. I think this might be the 1st time I've inked up my new PTI Beautiful Blooms 2 set, I love it though! Hope everyone had a great weekend.
