Fun "Boo Crazy" Wobbling Ghostie Card!

 Hello!

Well, it's September and it's the annual "Happy-Howlo-Thanks-Mas stamping time of year!  No wonder I don't know what day it is half the time!

Isn't this the cutest ghost?  She's from Tim Holtz and Stamper's Anonymous' "Boo Crazy" set,  released a few weeks ago.  She's wearing a hat from "Crazy Things" an older set, still available.  (Stamper's Anonymous doesn't discontinue their stamps sets because they make them themselves.)

I have a tutorial full of tips and tricks (which are a treat!) I especially focus on masking techniques.  The products I used are linked below with affiliate links (I may get a small commission when you purchase using the links at no additional cost to you!  It's a win-win!)

I hope you enjoy the tutorial and LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, COMMENT & SHARE!  It means so much to me and costs nothing!

Supply Links:  (Some may be on pre-order as they sold out quickly!  They will get more ASAP!)

I'll see you again really soon--a lot sooner than usual I hope!

Take care!

Never Give Up! Never Surrender!! Bubbles Shaker Card Journey

Hello!  

Today I'm shaking things up with a "beachy" shaker card!  I had to have the Stamper's Anonymous Bubbles set by Tim Holtz because it was different and versatile!  I show a few uses for it, but I'm sure there are many more!

Here's the tutorial:  (most supplies are linked below AFIL- thank you!!)  At the end there is a short, but really cute surprise video:)

Take care and I'll be back soon!!

 Happy Easter!

Today I'm hopping in with a fun card using Tim Holtz's Carrot Bunny die set by Sizzix.  I wanted to do something a bit different, so I made the carrot the closure, using a mini brad I alcohol-inked orange.

Here is the tutorial link (please consider subscribing:)

Here's the link to how I made the "wood":

Gale's Gallery XXVII: Merry Christmas 2016 Everyone!

Greetings!

It's Christmas Eve night and preparations are pretty much wrapped up here (pun intended!) I'm hoping you are ready for the holiday week and taking time to enjoy it.  In my area, we have a special New Year's Eve event--the Fiesta Bowl.  Not only am I happy for the Buckeyes, but since I don't like to go out that night, entertainment is coming to me!  Fingers crossed that we get to celebrate more than a new year!

Didn't bake a thing (or even get to visit any holiday sites,) but did a tiny bit of holiday paper crafting...

I did a couple versions of Christmas cards...Sentiment by #SimonSaysStamp.  The ornament dies , Woodgrain stamp and twine are from #HeroArts on Neenah Desert Storm and White 110# card stock.

This ornament is easy to make if you have nesting star dies.  Couldn't find heavier weight double-sided holiday cardstock in my stash.  Perhaps will find really cheap after Christmas! But you just line up the stars and sew down the middle...

Really easy favor, treat or tiny gift boxes with the die from Hero Arts #mymonthlyhero kit.  The floral is just printed cardstock, the red and white is red cardstock with white heat embossing and the bottom one is vellum with white heat embossing.  Stamps also from same kit.  These would work for any season!

Oh, here is a Thanksgiving one that I wanted to share:

White embossed leaves from Judikins on Tim Holtz #timholtz watercolor paper with Gansai Tambi watercolors, leaf die by Neat and Tangled  #neatandtangled, Grateful stamp #Heroarts

"The stockings were hung (and filled) by the chimney with care...

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!"

Wishing you and yours a safe and Happy Holiday Season!

Gale
