FMS632 With Pets & More

Happy Thursday, peeps! I recently got the Latte Love bundle, and the first thing I make with the DSP is a Halloween card, LOL!  I have also been playing with the two-step stamp, Pets & More, and wondered what I could do with the owl! When I saw one of the patterns in the A Little Latte line, it made me think of a spooky woods, so I went with it! Here we go:

I used the FMS sketch for my 4 1/4" card:

and along with the DSP, I embossed a piece of Early Espresso with a Timber embossing folder.  Throughout the Year has a Halloween sentiment in it, so I stamped that along with the owl on a piece of Very Vanilla:

Some Neutral adhesives added a little bit of interest, and I used a retired stamp from Banner Year to stamp on the inside of my card:

I also needed a thank you card, so I used the puppy stamp along with some Pretty Peacock gingham papers and an Eyelet embossing folder:

Another sentiment from Throughout the year and a few faceted gems finished it off.  Isn't his little bowl cute?

Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!

TGIF468 Thank You Kittens

Happy Saturday, everyone!  I am popping in today with a real quick card using a stamp set available through the Online Exclusives called Pets & More! It's a fun little two-step stamp, and I am using the sketch from TGIF for my card:

This sketch is a bit of a riff on my favorite sketch; the proportions are a bit different, but I still love it! Here we go:

I just happened to have this Inked Botanicals DSP on my desk, so I just went with that, stamping the outline image of kittens first in Calypso Coral ink on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, then flipped the stamp itself over and stamped the "filler" part in the same ink, only stamping it first on a piece of scrap paper so I got a lighter image.  I could have used my stamp positioner to get them a little straighter, but I was going for quick!!!

My sentiment is from Circle Sayings and I stamped the wee little fishies the same way, adding some retired enamel dots for a simple embellishment!

There are other animals in this set and I can't wait to play with them as well!  

Is anyone watching the PBS show called Mr Bates Vs The Post Office?  It's a fascinating, although very disturbing, series about how the British Post Office basically ruined many people's lives by refusing to admit that their new computer system was faulty.  The series is new, but it's based on a true story that has been playing out over about the last twenty years.  I have only seen one episode, but I recommend it! And the real-life final outcomes are still happening!

Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!
