Finding Inspiration Friday with

CTS Challenge

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for stopping by today. I do love my Fridays where I'm inspired by so many things when stamping. I can find inspiration from nature, clothes, and more. I'm always inspired by sketch challenges, and I try to participate whenever I can. These challenges give me lots of ideas for classes and more as well. Today my project is the for CTS Challenge. It's a Retro challenge this week.

This long a go sketch #58 is a great one. It allows you to focus right on that central spot. The new Monster Bash Suite of products by Stampin' Up! has so many wonderful things about it. For my project, I used the Monster Bash Designer Series Paper for the cute skeleton and paper layers. 

The textured Pumpkin Pie, is the new Hammered Metal 3D-Embossing Folder. I then sponged black ink using a stamping sponge. How awesome is that curly die? The Ornate Frames Dies are fabulous!! Double exclamation point!

Remember the inside of the card is just as important as the outside. I like to use scraps of the DSP for a trim on the inside. It just jazzes it up.

You know I love Halloween, so I've been playing with this suite for a couple of weeks now. I was very happy to use the CTS #338 challenge to create more with this suite. Be sure to check out all the entries this week for the challenge. Why not create your own project and submit it. It's so fun to do. 

Thanks again for stopping in. It's the perfect time for all your upcoming holiday needs. There are a couple of great promotions. Take a look.

Halloween is nearly here, which means that Paper Pumpkin has been busy, busy, busy. We thought you might like “a hand” with your frightful festivities, so Stampin' Up! designed September’s kit, Bone Appétit, with you in mind.
