  This second card is a combination of a slider and a shaker. It is time consuming but well worth it.   I used Autumn Bounty and Alcohol markers for this card. I’ve been obsessed with this class.  Now it’s time to get back to a few neglected chores.

 Cards in Motion has been one of the best Altenew Classes I have taken.  I like a challenge and I like to learn something new.  This class exceeded my expectations. The first lessons are basic shaker and spinner classes with some great tips that were new to me and very helpful. Lesson 7 is like…

  Autumn BlessingsSpinner I enjoyed Ashley Tucker’s Cards in Motion Class.  She explains the techniques and steps very well.  I cannot imagine how many hours she spent putting this class together.  It’s extremely well organized. People young and old are fascinated with interactive cards.  This one spins but in a new way….at least new to…

 An umbrella and rain drops in a fall collage?  why? And why did I not see the umbrella before I purchased this stamp? Umbrellas are for Spring! Is it just me? I purchased the stamp because it was for slimline cards and because I love all things fall.   When it arrived and I began…

My  nephew will be 11.  Soon making cards for him will be a real challenge.  Everyone always comments about how hard man cards are.  I think tween boy cards are equally difficult. For this year a robot shaker works just fine. Inspired by Megan Quinn. I used black glossy embossing paste with a brick stencil…

I’ve decided my Halloween style should be called Pretty Scary.  I want it to be creepy but I also want some color and glitz thus pretty but scary. My most fun challenge every Halloween is to make a “card” for our friends who were married on Halloween.  This year I saw Emma Williams’ make called…

Gemma Barraclough posted the Medium Ect.Tag that inspired this tag. I worked on this tag while watching Tim Holtz’ Halloween release on Saturday. It is just loaded with Tim Holtz products: Haunted Gate Keeper Alpha Shadow Tree Life Frightful Things Trick or Treaters Theodore Flower Jar 3D Brick embossing folder  The Moon from Altenew is…
