 - Pear Ink
 - Lagoon Ink
 - Slate Ink
 - Chipboard Starts
 - Cardboard corrugated stars

I hope you enjoy and now go and create something to play along with our sketch challenge!
 

In the next few weeks I hope to post a few Christmas and Holiday related projects, so stay tuned!  Do you have a project or paperpack that you want to see me tackle & post?  Let me know in the comments!

Some new cards....just because!

Hello everyone!

I wanted to enter a few different Challenge Blogs (including Creative Corner Challenges) this week, so I thought I would just to a "week in review" type of post with some of the different projects I have been working on this week!

Here we go!

I would also like to enter this card in the Creative Corner Challenges as well!

This is the card I am entering for Creative Corner Challenges!

I believe almost all the supplies for these cards came from Close to My Heart (mostly Huntington & Buzz and Bumble paperpacks).  I loved playing with the Pigment Inks to make the multicolored embossing on middle two cards.  

I hope you enjoy these cards.  Fall is in the air!
