Halloween Kitty


Only 4 days until Halloween. Do you go all out for Halloween? We usually only get about 12 or 15 kids trick or treating at my house.  Guess they don't want to walk all the way up to the house.  That's okay. More candy for me. hahaha  So it's time for the next challenge at {PIN}spirational Challenges #152.
Here is the picture to draw inspiration from.
 
The challenge is being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs. There are a few images at SSD that I could have used. I chose Sassy Pin Up Cat. I used a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.

Birthday Sentiment

Time for the next challenge at Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog (#143 Oct 22-Nov 3) This time it's "Birthday".  You have to use a sentiment on your project.  The challenge is sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs.  I thought I'd do something different this time.  I only used one of the 'Sentimints" I made for Sassy Studio Designs.  I wanted a pretty simple card.

Fall Rays

It's October already! Where did the year go? I love Autumn. It's time for the next challenge at Where the HeART is.  It is being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs.  The challenge is ...Use a Stencil/Anything Goes.  I got a couple of stencils awhile back from one of my Sassy Sisters as a Thank you.  I haven't used stencils much in the past.  I figured this would be a great challenge to see what I could do.  Then I saw an amazing card video by Kristina Werner.  She used a stencil. Here is a link to that card. I had to try it. It was so much fun. Here is my card.
