Dynamic Duos #68; spooky mighty oak

For this week's Dynamic Duos color challenge we could pick any 2nd color to pair with Perfect Plum. I chose SU Pumpkin Pie. I used PTI Mighty Oak stamp set and cover die. I adore this set, so fun to put the tree together. Added spooky sentiment from PTI Spooky Treats stamp set. Added some googly eyed to spook it up some. Thanks for looking.

Peppers favorite time of day

My sun lounger. The kids so conveniently left a fluffy blanket for our pig in her favorite afternoon spot. Such a cutie. I snapped this picture while I was jogging around her during a workout. Don't move on my account.

Clean pen

Pepper loves making a mess with her litter. Pine shavings everywhere. This is clean. When I wake up in 5 hours I am sure it will be a mess again.

Stamp-a-faire 2013: Sprinkle of Salt

Used the elmers glue with salt and re-inkers method. Info for this challenge can be seen on Nichols Heady's blog for Papertrey Ink. The effect the salt gives on this stamp set reminds me of when I was little I would use colored dried pasta or beans to decorate pictures. Love it, gives it texture and and earthy feeling such I think is perfect for  a Thanksgiving card. I used PTI Basket of Blessings stamp set.



So this is the end of Stamp-a-faire projects. I had to work the day of the challenge so I am adding these a little late to the game. Didn't get all the cards done but here is a picture of the ones I did get done. 

Stamp-a-faire 2013: Whipping up Scent-sational cards

For this challenge we had to make scented embossing powder. I mixed clear embossing powder with pumpkin pie spice. I stamped the pumpkin in SU pumpkin Pie ink and then restamped with versamark and embossed with my pumpkin pie scented powder. Stamp sets are all PTI, Spooky Treats, Mat stack 4 and Mums the word (for the leaves).
