Stamping Gear from Inkadinkado

October Card Gathering

We had a terrific card gathering Saturday and gained a new member.  Welcome Gretchen!
Our next gathering is Sunday October 7 at 1 PM.  This will allow participants to send off their Halloween Cards in time for the Holiday.

November we will be using the "Flirty" paper pack. Those who are interested in the card exchange will also purchase the "Pear and Partridge" paper. If you need assistance in designing a card just let me know and we'll schedule some time together.

If you are interested in joining us, please send me an email at pams334@gmail.com or call me at 503-917-1672.

Looking forward to seeing you gals on Sunday!

More October Card group projects

This week I had fun working with the Artiste Cartridge and the coffin 3D box. It's so easy and fun to "creep it out". A caramel eyeball would fit nicely in the bottom of the coffin.

CTMH has new alcohol markers. They are juicy and forgiving. I'm not much of a marker person because they usually streak but these did not streak!  The September stamp of the month was an adorable scarecrow.He was quick and fun to bring life to with the new markers.

Tomorrow is our card gathering. We are working on cards from the Dakota paper pack. Don't forget to bring your adhesive, scissors and paper cutters. 

In the spirit of fall, I felt the urge to bake. Will will be having apple pecan cake and pumpkin bars. As always coffee, tea, cider, cocoa, diet pop and ice water will be available.

See you tomorrow!

New Card Technique

Today I watched several YouTube videos on "Triple Stamp Cards". It's really a fun and easy technique. The results are beautiful.

I'm going to let the ladies in the card club select which example they want to make in our class in October.

Here are my examples:

Halloween Creative Fun

Today was a perfect day blending creativity and Halloween. I have been in 7th heaven. I just spent the day putting together the scrap pages for the October gathering. The scrap date is
Saturday October 20th at 1 PM. Our scrap group purchases a monthly paper pack for $9.95.
I provide the layout directions and additional Cricut items. October's Cricut Cartridge was Mini Monsters. Can't get enough of the colored googly eyes. The tree and bats are from a Cuttlebug
die. The paper is from Close to My Heart and called "Moonlight". The CTMH Stamp sets used are "Creepy Creatures and the set from the Workshop on the Go "Moonlight" kit.

If you are interested in joining us please send me an email:  pams334@gmail.com or call me at 503-917-1672.  I will need at least a week to order your paper pack and have it delivered before the gathering.

Tomorrow I'm going to work on the cards for our October Card Gathering. Along with the cards we will work on one or two containers from the CTMH/Cricut "Artiste" cartridge.

Here are the scrap pages we will work on in October........
