WM69 and SSS: Comp Book using EP

Sharing a composition book I covered using Echo Park's "Country Drive"

My SIL said the book I made for her a year or so ago was filled and requested another.

She will use it for sermon notes so I added some Bible Verses to the book. 
I LOVE the sheer happiness in the patterns and colors of this line!

I prefer my books to be as flat as possible. 

I did add a few buttons for the center of the flowers:

I added Stickles to the birds' wings:

WMC68, L18, and PDCC100: BOO!

Sharing a Halloween card today inspired by a few challenges.

I made the background text with the "boo!" stamped in spiced marmalade.

My ghost was made with a tissue. I adhered to a 1" circle on the inside for shape.

I had to trim him a few times to get him to fit the card.
I have been hoarding those stick pins.  Feels good to let go of one!  Hee Hee!

CFC18: The Little Engine That Could

I think I can... I think I can... I think I can....

Yep, I CAN make a card that is black, white and READ all over!

Inspired by the Little Engine That Could, I made a red version for the challenge.

I think this will be a cute way to encourage someone!

I stamped the train on red and cut him out.

I stamped the clouds on white paper, added white flocking powder and foam to a few.

The sentiment "I think I Can" is stamped in Versamark on the black piece.

The Inside:
