2S4Y & Dog Gone Stamps


This week's 2 Sketches 4 You challenge is sponsored by Creative Cuts and More. I love 2S4Y, and of course could not resist playing when CC&M is involved! I used another Spider, which as I think you may have noticed, is my favorite Halloween die cut from CC&M. This one was just cut from Tacky tape, so it's very thin and easy to mail! I love having these cut from sticky tape because it allows me to pour on the glitter! I think it would also be cool to cover it in black flock. I don't think I have any black flock, but I think Doodlebug carries it in Beetle Black, which is my favorite black glitter. I get all my Doodlebug Sugar Coated Glitter at CC&M. The bottles are huge, I don't think you could use one up in under five years-and I use glitter every day!!

This little beauty from Dog Gone Stamps is called Maid to Order, from the 1926 line. I wanted to make a card with her, but I also wanted to use my new My Mind's Eye paper. I decided to use them together, and I think she looks so precious all dressed up for Halloween. I added a few touches of Orange Peel Stickles for some shine.

I'm home with the little guy again today. He made it through the night in his own bed, so that's a good sign. He also does not have a fever right now, but he had one off and on all day yesterday, so I'm keeping him home today. Lucky just came out of his room, she's up early. We took DS's bunk bed down last week and put a regular bed in there, and it took Lucky about five seconds to decide that's where she was going to sleep! Now they are both up, and DS looks pretty good! I hope you all have a great day today-STAY WELL!!!
