All That Scraps Naughty or Nice Digi Preview

So how is everyone today? I am running around like a crazy person meeting all of the teachers and getting ready for school to start Monday. I have mixed emotions right now, I don't think it is as hard with the second one going into Kinder because I know what to expect.
All That Scraps has four new digis & 2 sentiments being released tomorrow that can be used for Halloween or other occasions like I have done here. Now my project is actually a double sided door hanger but you will have to check back tomorrow to see the other side:) I thought this would be cute to hang on the girl's bedroom door or maybe even Mommy's:)

This is Devil Birgitta by C.C. Designs very own Christine Wooden and tomorrow you can find her HERE. I used my Cricut Spring Holiday Cards cartridge to cut out the frame. The paper is some old SU Rockability that I have been hoarding. I printed the sentiments on the computer and hand cut the flags and distressed the edges. I colored Birgitta with Copics and drew the flames to set her on. I finished it off with Twinery Twine which you can get at ATS.
The rest of the ATS Digi team has done a fabulous job with the new images and you can see them HERE.
Please stop by tomorrow so I can show you the back side of my door hanger.

The Sweet Stop Sketch 121/ Blog Candy Winners!!

I first want to apologize for missing last weeks sketch at The Sweet Stop. I was having a loss of mojo or creativity and no matter how hard I tried I couldn't complete a card that I was happy with. I took a couple days break and jumped back in and got my cards done for this week and am feeling a bit better. Actually I have to say I kind of love my card this week but more about that in just a minute.
Thank you to all that entered my Blog Candy. I am trying to make my way to all of my new followers blogs so please be patient with me my computer time has been so limited lately but I can't wait to meet new friends in blog land. Now for the winners the Blog Candy Goes to Edel and the $25.00 Gift Certificate to All That Scraps goes to sparklingblackrose (Elaine). Congrats, please email me your information so I can get those things out to you.
And now my card for this weeks The Sweet Stop Sketch SSS121.

Isn't this just the cutest stamp? I love it and it is brand new by Elisabeth Bell Called Secret Garden Peeker and it is available at Susana's Custom Art & Card Design. I had to splurge and get this entire collection. I colored her with Copics and added a few doodles of rocks and grass along with clouds that I sponged with my favorite sky color Twilight from CTMH....hummm I wonder if I like because of the name?:) I did a little bit of paper piecing on her shoes and belt and distressed all of the edges. The ribbon was actually all cream but I colored the center part with B95. The flower was created using the Mother's Day Bouquet cartridge on my Cricuit. I cut them out on cream paper and then sketched the flower centers and edges with B95/B93 and colored the pearl with YG63. The swirls are 2 different dies from Sizzix. The sentiment is from C.C. Designs HERE and I think that is about it.
