Halloween Frog



Thought I'd use a stamp set I hadn't used before - the Halloween Frog set from the Inky Antics Honey POP Collection. This creates a 3-D pop-up on the inside. I had planned to make a few of these, but it ended up taking me MUCH longer to make the card, so it looks like it will be a one-only production. The Copic markers used: V15 & 17, YR16, Y38, E31, 50 & 55, YG00, 11 &13, and BG000. The spider web punch is from Martha Stewart. The patterned paper is Eerie from Fancy Pants Design.

Laurie Mika - Class Project


I'd been wanting to take a class with Laurie Mika for over a year and was finally able to attend one yesterday. We made a mosaic book cover. Naturally, I went for a french/Parisian theme. I even got to use rubber stamps on the project. The main/central image uses a frame stamp, and that is attached to a larger stamped image underneath it. Two of the white glass squares were stamped with Staz-On ink, and the two matching rectangular tiles on the sides and the two across the top and bottom were made from rubber stamp images.

Considering it was my first time to work with polymer clay, I'm pretty happy with the results. I just might have to try another project some time.
