Goodies, Milk glass, Halloween Card

I got a wonderful chunky charm from my friend Lorraine, and lots of other goodies too.  Did some shopping, which I seem to do more of lately than crafting.  Added to my collection of milk glass and also made a Halloween card.  The Halloween card is a chipboard card and this is a great way to use up all that chipboard that you have in different shapes.  I know I have lots of the books that I have never gotten around to making so this way you can make some awesome cards.  Thanks for looking today sorry it has been so long since I posted.  I have been stalking youtube videos.  If you are interested in seeing all my videos please ccheck me out as Scrapngigi on youtube.  Would love to have more followers there too. 

Halloween Cascade Card

Today's card was one that I saw done and thought how cute but probably difficult to do, but I decided to give it a shot.  Turned out to be super easy to make, took me longer to decorate the card and add my patterned paper than it did to make the card. 
What you need for this card is 1 piece of paper cut at 81/2 x 12,   You will then make a mark at 51/2 down to 3 inches.  This will be your cut line you do not have to draw a line just make a few little marks (but if you do pencil your line you will have to go back and erase).  After it is cut you will then score at  the 2, 4, 8 & 10,  make a very fine mark at 6 but not an actual score.  Now you will go back and make a fine pencil mark at 23/4 down to 11/2,  On your score line you will now cut one piece on the bottom at 2 & 10, up to your line, then cut at the fine line at 6 from top down to line should be cut half way on each cut, do the same for the other piece but cut from the top at 2 and 10 and from the bottom at 6.  Fold your card and you will then slide the cut pices into each other.  Use your scorer to press down the folds. Then decorate as you see fit with your cricut cuts, extra 3d stickers you have laying around or just have fun with it. I did mine just alittle different than the lady on this video but this is an excellent video showing you how it will go together.  http://www.frenchiestamps.com/2012/02/cascading-card-easy-way.html
When I finished with the card I actually let out a squeal cause I couldn't beleive I actually did it and it turned out great on my first try.  Hubby was in the room and was wondering why I was so happy.  Thanks for stopping by today and Happy Halloween. 

Teddy Bear Trick or Treating

Today's card was made for my grandkids for halloween.  I just love the new Teddy Bear Parade Cartridge.  So many cute little bears to choose from.  I cut the bears at 3.5 inches, Cardbase is %.25 x 7.25, I also used the Justrite stamp mini halloween set for the sentiment Happy Trick or Treating, Punched with stampin up window punch. Inside cat image is from the Justrite Happy Halloween set, and the punch for the border is EK success don't recall the name of the punch.  Thanks for looking and hope you get lots of treats instead of tricks this halloween.

Double Double Toil & Trouble

Halloween is quickly approaching and the witches have to get all the ingredients for their witches brew.  Better be careful you never know what is lurking around.

I used Happy Hauntings, Oct 31st, and Cricut Craftroom Basics along with CCR to design this card.  I also used paper stack The DCWV The Bewitched.  I'm not a huge fan of halloween but do enjoy some of the festivites of the holiday.  Thanks for not being to scared to enter.
