A Colorful Life Designs October 2026 Release

 Hello everyone. I'm so excited to have a card today for A Colorful Life designs New Release for October 2026. If you would like to see my video sharing the whole Release and a Giveaway click here.

Let's Get Started:


I used the New Mid Century Bauble Tree 6x6 Stencil. It's such a cute stencil and I think this tree can be in all such of colors and perfect for batching too. I used purple cardstock 85 pounds and inked it with Catherine Pooler Royal Treatment. I also used Catherine Pooler ink in Over Coffee and Sauna inks for the tree trunk and star.



My purple cardstock is 4 x 5 1/4. I added a sentiment strip that I inked with the same Royal Treatment and I popped it up with foam tape. I also added some purple card bling from A Colorful Life Designs in and don't forget to use my code VonFan10 to save on your purchases.

{BYSHC} Card Sketch 74 for October 2026

 Hello Everyone Happy October! We have a new card sketch for {BYSHC} Card Sketch 74. I really love this card sketch I hope you join us. Christmas is coming our way and Taylored Expressions is our sponsor this month.


Let's Get Started:



I went with some fun pattern papers and colored cardstock for my Holiday card today. I had to turn my card sketch as my snowman would of looked funny and backwards. So I didn't mind as I don't do this to often. I added some glitter pattern paper and faux glitter pattern paper for fun.


I even placed my sentiment sideways and I like it. I might have to do my sentiments sideways more often. Sentiment is from Papertrey ink. I then glued all to a A 2 card base 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and that finishes my card. I hope you join us 
 












Inspired By...Fall Leaves #IB409

 Hello everyone. I'm so excited for this weeks challenge at Inspired by...Blog. This week the theme is Fall Leaves #IB409. We have a fun Card sketch and color inspiration. I hope you join us!

Let's Get Started:




I was inspired by the theme and card sketch. I think the colors from the photo could be in my printable pattern paper.  I went easy this week with this beautiful printable from LV Handcrafted that was a free printable from the Not 2 Shabby Shop Autumn Greetings Retreat recently. I had printed it and not used it so it was perfect for this weeks challenge. There is a wreath on the photo so yay. This sheet included cut a parts and I fussy cut the wreath. 


I cut my printable up and it seemed like this paper was the right size at 3 x 4 7/8. I then glued it to some natural colored cardstock that is 4 x 5 1/4. I glued all to a A2 card base 4 1/4 by 5 1/2. Sentiment Strip was also a from the Not 2 Shabby Shop Autumn Greetings Retreat. Lastly, I added some Fall colored sequins to match. I had so much fun making this card, it was right up my alley.

Next it's your turn! We would love for you to share in the FB group!
