DOstamper Color Birthday

Welcome to another DOstamper Thursday Challenge!

Love these colors together.

At first when I seen the colors I thought that it would not be that great together....but wait until you see the card that I came up with!!  Drum roll please........

I have to thank Mercedes Weber for the inspiration for this card. Thanks Mercedes!!   I took her card and just made a few changes.  So...what do you think of the color combo now?  I think they look outstanding together.  They are so bright and bold.

I just love the Alphabet Press Embossing folder for the background.  It just gives the whole card a wow factor.  This embossing folder can go with so many different occasions in making cards or scrapbooking.  The Happy Birthday is from a set called " Age Awareness ".  If you haven't seen this set yet, it is a must see for your birthday projects.  And of course you always have to add the Bling!  For my bling I have added the Silver Glimmer paper which is cut out on the Big Shot using the Label Framelits Collection.  Also the star is punched out with the glimmer paper as well.  I used the little star from the Itty Bitty Accents punch pack.

This is also a sneak peek at one of the card for the Up and Coming Card Buffet on Saturday, November 1st.

Halloween Picture Challenge

JUST LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR!!!

This week is a DOstamper Stars Picture Challenge.  And wouldn't you know it of course has to do with Halloween!!

I would LOVE to do my front entry way this way!

This weeks card is a card that I did for my Technique Club that I hold once a month.  If you would like to join us you are more than WELCOME!  You can even get the club TO-GO!  Also with this club one month is your Hostess month...what does that mean for you?  FREE PRODUCTS!!!  To find out more about the club you can check it out HERE or email me at jntcrlsn@yahoo.com.

How cute is he?!?!

I just love how this card turned out!!!  My club members LOVE IT!! 

 I even received a few orders for this card!  

In the picture about the card is closed with the NEW Twisted - Thicker Baker's Twine!  This new twine comes in 2 different colors at this time.  The Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive.  LOVE IT!! You can find it in the Holiday Catalog.

In this picture, these are the front and the 2nd panel to the screen.  I just love that little punch art Bat.  And how about the NEW  Fall Bundle that came out in the Holiday Catalog!!  It is called "Fall Fest", it is a Photopolymer set.  But what is really great you can get it as a bundle and get the framelits to cut out all the images in the stamp set.  Stampin' Up! makes it so easy for us!

Here are the 3rd and 4th Panels.  Wondering what stamp set the little moon and bats came from?  This is another NEW set that came out in the Holiday Catalog as well.  This one is called "Holiday Invitation", this is also a photopolymer set.  If you haven't checked out this catalog you really have too!!

I almost forgot to tell you about the NEW punch, Confetti Stars.  This punch also came out in the Holiday Catalog.  I love how Stampin' Up! has come out with more boarder punches.  And with punch you get all those little stars after you punch.  I see another project coming!!!

I hope you will join the DOstamper Stars with the next challenge Thursday!  Here are few links to the other stars that have participated in this weeks challenge.
