Halloween easel card

Another day, another creation!    This one is an easel card.  I was planning on inking the brad I used but changed my mind when I decided to go with the candy.  I still used the brad; except I place three candy corns on the brad.

I like making easel cards but I have one problem I can't seem to fix.  Why won't the card stay up?  Am I missing a brad (or something like it) that should be placed behind the standing part?  Hmm, guess I'll have to do some more research.

Sketch N Stash Challenge 69

I love card sketches.  I haven't been doing any scrapbooking or cardmaking since January.  I thought it would be fairly easy to jump back into it but alas, not so much.  That's why I love sketches.  It takes some of the work away.


I used this sketch over at Sketch N Stash.  I used my new-ish printed paper and pearls for this challenge.





Here is my take on the sketch...

Paper: The Paper Studio, American Crafts (Simply Chich); Stamp: Studio 112; Pearls: The Paper Studio; Pencils: Prisma


I also include this card in Incy Wincy Challenge 109 (Pearls and Diamonds)


Until next time...

My first card in months.

After a long, long hiatus, I am finally back.  Finished up my accounting degree so now I have tons of time while I look for that perfect job.    My first card is a thank you card for a wonderful person. 

I followed the sketch over at  365 Cards.
