Witch Wanda caught in a web by Crystal

Hello Ai Fans !!
It's Crystal here with a card using the Witch Wanda set #4311 , I do love making Halloween cards and this new witch is so fun , it's a must have for your collection .

To make this card I started with black card base then I used a double-sided paper Purple with black dots and webs on the other side , so I made layers with this paper (Pepples tricks and treats paper ) next I cut my web from vellum and I wanted to make it stand out more so I added score tape and put diamond glitter on itdone , I hope you can see the bling

next I colored my witch with copics added sentiment , my spider is hanging by the twine , I also added goggle eyes for some fun
inside my card
now for some eye candy for the postal person .. I love decorating my envies
TIP : when coloring on your envelopes always insert some card stock under your image ( inside envie ) so it will not bleed thru and since the envelopes are so thin it always helps with wicking the ink to not bleed outside the lines .below you can see it did bleed on my insert CSnext I make a mask over my colored image to add ink splats around herI used SU Lucky Limeade for splattersink the edges with a sponge in the Lucky Limeadefinished envelope can you see the WOW factor decorating the envelope adds
the pair are finished

Air-Hag on board by Crystal

Hello Ai fans !!!
It's Crystal here with a Halloween card using Air-Hag set # UM4309 . I just love this new witch that Ai has added to their awesome collection of stamps , I hope you add her to yours as well.

here is how I created my card
first I sponged on a moon with crushed curry ink , then I sponged grey clouds for a spooky look , I just use a scallop I die cut and ink the die edge move directions as to go down the page , yes I even inked the clouds over the moon too.next I cut my haunted house out using my Cricut and the Happy Haunting cartridge , I cut the house at 5 3/4" , I glued down my house
I added a black layer and a lime green base to my card , I colored my witch and bats with Copics and fussy cut them out , I pop them up on glue dots. I add shimmer over the witches dress with my shimmer pen then I run my finger over to give an even shimmer to her.

inside my card i used my crop a dile to add grommets and lace up with twine , I created a pocket so you can add a treat inside ( like a coffee card or money )these are the copic colors I used

Another year ,another wrinkle by Crystal

Hello Ai Fans !!
It's Crystal here and today I wanted to make you a card using the Wollowing Pig  SKU # M1188 and thought I should make him into a birthday card .


This pig is so cute  , I wanted to surround him with handmade flowers I made from die cuts , I added alot of layers and machine stitched each layer to add lots of interest.My papers are from My Minds Eye Hattie collection , I love to use little  6x6 paper pads to make cards , the prints are sized down and that makes then perfect for card making .

inside my card I continued the theme
