Year in Review Part Two

 Welcome back! So this will highlight my September, October, November cards. I can tell my skill level is getting higher because I had a really hard time choosing for November!! 

September: My husband is SO supportive, he looks at every card I make, sometimes he will give feedback too. I absolutely love how much he supports what I do and will talk crafting with me even though I know it's not his thing. He picked out this one for September. He really likes the photo on this one. So the card was glow in the dark paste by LawnFawn and the stencil is Picket Fence Studios. I took so many photos trying to get my card to glow! I have a blacklight flashlight that I held over the card turned my lights to a "dusk setting" and took a quick snapshot! After several tries I was able to capture it glowing!! Such a pretty stencil, great way to start off the fall. 

October: I love this card. So this Halloween I feel like I spent a lot of time "stretching my stash" using dies in unexpected ways. It's so easy to do with Halloween because it has such LOVELY colors!! Neon green, purple, and orange is probably one of my favorite ink or color combos, as long as it's not the color of the stuff in my house...So I was thinking witches cottage, the shingles with some gold ink and this beautiful sakura blossom die from Spellbinders. It was more elegant I feel like than my usual cards, and I love the way the whole card came out. 

November: I just couldn't pick, I ended up asking my husband and he couldn't pick so I decided to go with my Create 3 Challenge from IG. So this was the Hero Arts kit plus the Katkin Krafts fairy stamp. I love mushrooms and fairies. I have fairies all over my craft room. The challenge for this set was I had to use a theme over the course of all three cards. I love the watercolor effect inking on vellum had. It was the first time I tried. I will have to figure out a way for it to dry flat next time. 

Stayed tuned for exclusive blog comments and my December post tomorrow!
