Hey there!  It’s a fabulous new challenge and this week we’re featuring Tim Holtz products.  As I’ve said before, I sometimes get a bit intimidated by TH stuff – I’m not an inky type really.  However, I LOVE his stencils and this Autumn Leaves one is gorgeous!  I used a few different Distress Inks to give a variety of shades on the leaves and the Thank You sentiment is cut using the Thank You die from Avery Elle.  I added a border strip to add a touch more detail to the design and finished off with a few sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

Ok, I know what you’re going to say … how does this card fit this week’s challenge theme of Thinking of You?  Well I can’t lie … it doesn’t!  I have been pretty up against it this week after being away on holiday last week, Halloween, my daughter’s birthday etc.  I had to make my card in a rush and whilst I have used a gorgeous Penny Black die, the actual challenge theme just went … poof.. right out the window, lol!!  I hope you like it anyway, lol!!

Simon Says … Anything Goes (with Lawn Fawn)

I had a ball creating this spooky little Halloween treat box for this week’s challenge.  Lawn Fawn make amazing box dies and this one is so cute.  I can see me getting lots of use out of it in the run up to Christmas!  BUT, we’ve got Halloween to enjoy before that 🙂

This was pretty simple to put together.  I cut the box out of SSS Fog cardstock and then used the circle die from Stitched Tree Borders to make an window (I put acetate behind it to stop the candy corn from falling out!)  I then cut the tree border in black and lined it up on the box so it falls in front of the window. I created the sentiment from Milo’s ABC’s which is heat embossed in white and then finished  off with a wee bit of Doodlebug twine in Beetle Black!
