The great pumpkin


Happy Monday folks! Three weeks till Halloween. Time to get started on your cards Pumpkin!!! 

Today starts a new challenge at Inky Paws! We are looking for weener cards! So pull out those spooky Newton's Nook stamps, stencils, and dies and have some fun!

My card today uses my favorite die set from Newton's Nook- "Speech Bubbles". I die cut the big speech bubble and stenciled just the faces from the "Jack-o-Lantern" stencil set. From the same set, I stenciled just a row of the pumpkins. The sentiment is from Newton's Boo-tiful Night.


No intro needed!

Fragment Friday


Sunny days for this Fragment Friday!! Today's fragment is U4.  My buddy Patty commented that it look like it took a long time to draw this and I have to say it did. I ended up spending a crazy amount of time on the shading and was still not really happy with it. 


Here are the Fragment Friday team's tiles. 



We are looking for other members of the Fragment Friday team. If interested contact me.

Tangle Tuesday

Welcome to Tangle Tuesday! Today tile is inspired by Sabrina Chu. I am calling this "Autumn Splendor".  I love how the Zig clean color markers blend on the Zentangle renaissance tiles. 

On a different note, I am excited to announce that two pieces of my Zentangle art will be on display at the Chester County Arts Association Members Exhibit. The opening reception is Thursday October 6, from 5-7pm. The Exhibit will be from 10/6-10/20.

Signs of Autumn


It's another dreary, cool, and rainy day here. Hey! I am OK with that.  We need the rain and I was so tired of the heat. It's a good day to hunker down and craft. AS much as I am enjoying the rain, my thoughts and prayers are with all those in Florida dealing with the effects of Ian.

You still have one more week to play along with our fun sketch challenge at Inky Paws.

It's the time of year, where you will see me crafting with kraft, paper that is. Something about kraft paper just makes me think of fall and Thanksgiving. Today's card features "Signs of Fall", Autumn paper pack, and the "Argyll" stencil. all from Newton's Nook.


The musical inspiration seems like an obvious choice for a wet rainy Monday.
