Halloween at Di's Digis this challenge! (Di's Digi image)

Hi crafty friends,

The new challenge this fortnight at Di's Digis is Halloween. You can find this gorgeous Halloween image and so many other cute as can be animal images at Di's Digis online store. She really does have the sweetest animal digis around!

I did a fair bit of doodling on this card - the stitching around the image and sentiment and the card border as I still haven't managed to figure out how to use my sewing machine that I got 2 years ago for Christmas! In truth, I did try to read the instructions a month ago but decided it was way too complicated for little ol' me and will wait til my mum next comes around to show me hehe.

We have brand new flowers in a rainbow of colours at Flourish with a Bling and to celebrate we are selling them at only $2 a pack (rrp $3) for this month only. Click on our name to go to our online store and check out all of our gorgeous products.

A Magical Day easel card (All Dressed Up image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Here's one more cute Halloween card and this easel card has been created using a gorgeous little image and sentiment from All Dressed Up. I added a little bat sticker and doodles some stitching around, I used some large die cut shapes for the top of the card and a wrought iron fence die too. This paper I have had almost since I started crafting I think which was about 10 years ago! Glad I kept it as I think it goes well with the sweet image.

Trick or Treat cute witch (DigiStamp Boutique image)

Hi crafty friends,

I'm a guest designer at DigiStamp Boutique for a few weeks and I am happy as can be about it, they have such gorgeous images. Here is a sweet little witch from DigiStamp Boutique called Witchy Isla.

I embossed the orange and black triangles but you can't really see it on the black. I doodled the little black dots around the image and card. 

The gorgeous orange flower is from Flourish with a Bling, I chopped it up with my scissors to give it a "spooky" look hehe. The flowers are brand new and exclusive to Flourish with a Bling and this month as an opening special they are $2AUD a pack (4 flowers in these packs, rrp will be $3AUD).

You've put a spell on me card

Me again, hopefully you've just checked out my last card, I'm uploading them both together. I love this witchy image from Stitchy Bear stamps and I've combined the scene with a cute little potion shelf from Meljens. I love to always give a shout out to the artist/store that I get my images from and link their names to their stores so it's very easy for you to go check them out. 

I put some glitter in a little bottle which is supposed to look a little like it's fallen off the shelf hehe. I glittered around the edges of the "scene" too, haven't used real glitter like this in a while. 

This is the final week of Flourish with a Bling's 50% off sale, ends October 31st! (click on the name to be taken to the store). The only items not discounted are the already amazingingly priced value packs, everything else is half off!! I hope you'll check out our website as we have our own unique products and we post worldwide. Please email if you would like rough estimates of shipping, if we can send it as a large letter we will or it's usually around $14 for a parcel to the US or $18 to UK! If you're order is over $200AUD we will pay half the shipping (international orders). If you mention my blog (Lucy) when ordering we will send you a bonus Jasmine laser flourish!
