For my card tonight, I cut the Spider Web Die-namics out of some BO Bunny Halloween paper from last year. I then cut two spiders out of Black Licorice cardstock, and added them with some Charcoal Twine to make them look like they are hanging. Some large silver Michael's brads were added, and for my sentiment, I used the new High-rise Alphabet  Lowercase Die-namics in my cardstock colors: Orange Fizz, Sour Apple, and Black Licorice.

For the inside, I used more spiders, and a sentiment from the Spider Web set.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:

MFTWSC88 Roll With It....baby

Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!! That means it is time for another Wednesday Stamp Club challenge from My Favorite Things! It's MY favorite sketch challenge!

I started by stamping my Pure Innocence Roll With It girl on X-Press It Blending Card. I colored her mostly with Copics, but I did paper piece her helmet. I used Orange Fizz, Sweet Tooth, Pink Lemonade, and the YUMMY new Steel Grey cardstock all from MFT. My circle is the Open Scalloped Doily Duo Die-namics, and I used the Dog Tag Die-namics for my sentiment. The Sentiment Strips Die-namics was used both inside  and outside of the card. My twine is blossom, and I used the new Steel Grey buttons and grosgrain!

For the inside, I used more of the same supplies. My sentiment is from the Pure Innocence Skater Boy set.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:

For my first card, I used the new Primitive Pumpkins set. It is more of a Halloween set, but I decided I wanted to do something a little different with it, and go for Fall. I cut the pumpkins out of some old SU DP, and then added them to a Sweet Tooth oval cut out with my Oval Stax Die-namics. I layered it with the Oval Decorative Doily Die-namics in Hot Fudge.  I did a little sponging, but not much, with some Cocoa ink. My swirls are the new Large Fancy Flourish Die-namics in Sage Shadow(SU). For my base I used Hot Fudge, Sage Shadow, and Orange Fizz. My ribbon is Orange Fizz grosgrain, and I used some of the yummy Hemp Twine from MFT, along with a Hot Fudge button. The border I used was cut with the Faux Crochet Border Die-namics. To finish, I used the new High Rise Alphabet Lowercase Die-namics.

For the inside, I used pieces of the swirl, and a sentiment from the Inspired by the Front Porch-Fall set.

For my second card, I used the new Fairy Dust set. She was stamped on X-Press It blending card, and some Basic Grey Eerie DP. I paper pieced her wings and dress, and colored the rest of her with my Copics. She was then layered with Sour Apple, Grape Jelly, and Black Licorice. My background was created with the new Jumbo Fishtail Banner Die-namics, and the Large Fancy Flourish Die-namics. I tied a bow with Black Licorice grosgrain, which I attached one of the new Halloween Charm Die-namics and some Honeydew Twine. My sentiment is from the Primitive Pumpkins set, and was stamped on a strip from the Sentiment Strips Die-namics.

For the inside, I used another sentiment from the Primitive Pumpkins set, and some more of the Basic Grey paper.

Here are the Die-namics I have used:
