Outlines - Lots of Layers

This week's Outlines rubber stamp challenge was lots of layers! I decided to layer up some patterened DCWV papers and add a favorite Outlines stamp. The center frame is doubled up and layered with the ghost "popped" as well!

These are defiantely not my traditional fall or Halloween colors, but I think I like the combination!

Feeling like Fall

Feeling like Fall...Outlines Challenge...and acorns always remind me of fall.

Picking up acorns and pinecones from trees with orange and yellow leaves, my inspiration for the colors of this card. Difficult to tell from the picture, but the pinwheel acutally spins, all three layers!

Beautiful Borders - Outlines Challenge 15

With somewhat cooler weather approaching next week, I decided with the Beautiful Borders challenge this week to create my border using one of Outlines pumpkins rubber stamps. The small pumpkin used to create my border is paired with another outlines stamp, a set of three pumpkins.

Spellbinders were used to create the pumpkin shapes, paper from the DCVW retro mat stack and ribbon which was cut down to size and given some effect using my pinking shears!

The pumpkins were colored with a variety of Copic markers, along with Stickles and Dew Drops for some added sparkle and texture!
The cooler weather coming, along with these pumpkins, has me ready for pumpkin pickin' and hay rides! C'mon fall!

Outlines - 4 Legged Friends

My entry for this weeks Outlines Challenge - 4 Legged Friends. I would friend a reindeer anytime, but especially if it brought me some cooler weather!
Rather hard to tell from the picture, but this is colored with Copics and then diamond glaze put over the reindeer. Smooch colors used for the greens on the antlers and green dots from Michael's craft store.

Sumertime - Outlines Challenge 13

My Summertime Flowers card for this weeks Outlines Challenge 13 - Summer!

The stamp is Outlines, colors with Prismacolor pencils and blended with Gamsol.
Nestabilities were used to create the scalloped circles and a cuttlebug folder for the embossed floral background.

The ribbon is a glimmer sheer orange and yellow, which reminded me of the sun. Pebbles chalk used to enhance the embossing and around the edges of scallops.

I wish my flower garden looked like that this year, but alas, the heat has taken its toll...

Thank you Very Much!

My card for this week's Outlines Challenge 12: Lovely with Lace!!!

This one started off with some lace, stamped with an Outlines image and sparkled up just a little bit for some added texture. A few stickles, dew drops, liquid pearls and a flower from the stash bin make up this simple Thank you!

Thinking Cool in all this Heat! Outlines Weekly Challenge 11

Now that we've had nearly 45 days of 100 degree heat this summer, I'm ready to start thinking COOL! Thinking snow, which always reminds me of Christmas.

Beginning with Christmas trees and words from Outlines Rubber Stamps, I colored with Copics, in different shades of our inspiration greens. I used paper from a DCWV stacks and layerd with some cuttlebug embossing. Green tinsel ribbon was from my ribbon stash! A little glimmer mist and stickles for some shimmery effect and wa-lah!
