More spiders, and a sea horse


I made this for the weekly color challenge over at GinaK's StampTV. The colors were blue, green & yellow. This was the first time I used the sea horse stamp from the Eclectic Summer STV kit, and I really like the way he stamped. I used Ballet Blue for my solid color and Basic Gray's Lime Ricky, also from the STV kit, for my patterned paper.

Here's another Creative Cuts and More Spider. I can't quit using them! Who am I going to send all these creepy Halloween cards to? A comment on the jewels: I got them on sale for a dollar. They are K&Co, and I have been having a blast using them on all my Halloween cards. I don't even think I'll use this package up this Halloween. Sometimes I marvel at how much pleasure I can get from things that cost so little. (Don't ruin my moment of joy by reminding me how much I've spent in the last nine years, okay!?)

You're just such a creative girl, Carla--beautiful cards! I love both the seahorse and the spider--fabulous!

I, for one, would never reminder you about past spending--(bit of a spender myself!), and I so understand about how fun it is to use cheap (or free!) stuff!

Hope you're having a wonderful day, my friend!
