The Raven,

I used alcohol ink and then I sanded it down.  I used some distress ink to darken it and stamped the bird cages and birds on the line from Artistic Outpost.  The Big Black Bird stamp from some Fiskars clear stamps.  I embossed the bird to make it stand out.  Had fun today once I got in my room to play.  Now it is night and I don't want to go to bed.  Darn, I wish I could play forever.  http://gingersnapcreations.blogspot.com/

Live the Life That You Imagined

I made a oval tag just because it is part of my supplies.   I used the Tim Holtz Visual Artisty clear stamps from Stampers Anonymous.  I used 2 pieces of Tim's fragments and a bunch of different colored fibers to hand and also a key I found on my desk.  It didn't quite turn out like I wanted but it grew on me.  Hope you like it.      http://gingersnapcreations.blogspot.com/

Fall

Fun simple card.  The hardest part was finding the crimpers.  I didn't find the one I was looking for but did find this one in my grandaughter's art stash.  I used a rust color piece of cardstock for the base and took a kraft color paper as a mat on a white piece of cardstock crimped after stamping with the background stamp from Rogue Redhead Designs Beach Baby set.  The oak leaves are from a Tim Holtz die cut using the DCWV Natural mat stack paper.  Took a piece of raffia and a maple brad.
