Happy Sunday blessings from me Peggy Lee, I am thrilled to share with you all this Halloween project I created using all Nirvana Collection!
"BOO" Banner
I started with the beautiful Nirvana Collection cut out little banners, backed them on chipboard.
Inked and glittered all the edges.
Using my Cricut machine I die cut out the "BOO" title and banners.
Also glittered over the black letter "BOO".
Used burlap for the banners backing and sprayed with glimmer mist...frayed the edges!
Embellished with flowers, trims and tiny little black birds.
Here is a close up of each banner!

Nirvana Pumpkin "Fall" Card


 With the nip of crisp fall breeze...the picking of apples and pumpkins filling up the stores...I couldn't resist to create a cute little pumpkin "fall" card with the Nirvana paper collection...and I think it turned out adorable!!
I cut the pumpkin and leaves out of the Cricut Artbooking cartridge...
in different papers from the line.
Inked the edges in Pumpice Stone Distress Ink
and popped them up to give depth.
Also created some textured on the card background with stucco
and gesso with a crinkle mask...splatted some sprays of glimmer colors!
Added more colors with the flower and gems in the same tones.
Created a little paper banner "fall" using stamps and cutting little
banner shapes from the paper line...
sewing them together...
laid it accross the pumpking and perfect embellishment!
Thanks for stopping by today,
"happy fall"
