Long Lost Cards

It's been too long since I've posted a paper project, and I'm hoping to be posting more soon.  For now I've been organizing my temporary craft room and came across these cards that I completely forgot about and never posted, so here they are!  Okay, after you've picked yourself up off the floor in shock, take a look!

This one I think I did with one of my Hostess Clubs last spring using the Topstitch Paper, a pink Just Bloom flower, and Togetherness stamp set for the stitches.
The next two are way out of season, and meant to share them months ago, but they got put away and forgotten as well.  I hosted a Crop 'Til You Drop night back in October and had some friends over to crop the night away!  I played a bit with Studio J (I'll share those layouts later) and created these two Halloween cards using the Hooligans Paper, Thriller stamp set, Glitz Gel, and a bit of Liquid Glass and my craft sewing machine.
For the main image I inked the image in Gypsy (purple) ink, then I rolled it in Black and then stamped it.  Then I stamped the image again in Gypsy, cut out the skull and used a pop dot to attach it to my card.  I then glitzed up the eyepatch with the Glitz Glitter gel.  I also used the Glitz on my 'fake' brads (aka punched out paper circles) to give them some bling and dimension.
For this card I stamped the main image once on the card and then again on the Lagoon paper and cut it out.  I added some Liquid Glass to Dracula to give him some dimension and shine.  You can't tell in the pic but I also used the Glitz Gel on the dots on the scalloped piece that I cut from the patterned paper.
Thanks for visiting!

Super cards, Jena! How fun to have found them after all this time. But even more fun is that you are organizing a temporary craft space for yourself. You deserve it and I can't wait to see all the lovely goodies you will be able to create.
