And then here is the page that I made with the kit also ... I painted the brick wall white and then added the crackle to the chipboard ...so cool and then I cut out fence, arrows and black flowers to add to this page and then cut some of the "bling" trip to put in the middle of the flowers.

Here is a close-up:
 
  
Next I decided to do a cat page with those cute little cats ...we just got a black cat...so I painted the background with some thinned out white paint and cut some words out and stars and added some of the crackle to the stars to make them stand out more ....

Here is a close-up:

Then I did one more Haunted Mansion page playing with the fun chipboard brick and layering of the papers and then cut out the titles and bats to finish off the page!!!

Love Love Love this kit ...so fun to make something different with!!1
And making fun ornaments for my cute little silver tree for Halloween!!!
I also cut strips out of the bling and added them to the tree, added the super cool flowers of orange and black and cut circles out and sewed them together to make a banner to hang in the tree!!
Here are some of the pictures from me making fun things for my tree.... gotta love Pintrest!!!

 
I made six different ornaments with the overlays ...I cut them up and then added embellishments from the kit ...i used the stickers and cut out different things from the pattern paper!!

 
Then I made these cute pumpkins ...i cut 4 inch by 1/2 inch paper strips and then put a brad at both ends and then fanned them out into a pumpkin and the cut leaves and added bling to the top!!
Thanks for looking at my cute little tree

"Crushing" on BOAF September kit

Totally "crushing" on all this Gold in the kit ....love love love it!!! Such fun colors to play around with and then oranges, greens, golds are for sure in my everyday pictures!!!
In this page I wanted to cut out and pop up the green chevron paper off the page and then stitch it back down and then another technique I wanted to try was adding white paint to the glitter paste to make it thicker and not translucent ...this was fun to play with!!!



And then here is a closeup of the page:
 
And then my second page that I did was after riding the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train I took a picture of their cottage and all the lovely greenery around their house ...I painted and used the glitter paste on the wooden leaves and then cut out and layered the leaves on the page!!!



Here is the close-up of the page:

 
And one more close-up:

 
Thanks for looking at my pages!!!
