Little Green Googly Ghouls CARD, cQc#152

It's been awhile but back again playing along with the colourQ challenge royal court design team with my creation using the new SU Googly Ghouls stamp set.  These little guys make me laugh.

Googly Ghouls Clear-Mount Stamp Set #128063
Price: $12.95
Our Googly Ghouls have eyes made especially to be covered with Googlies--adhesive-backed googly eyes. This not-so-scary six-piece set coordinates with the Ghoulish Googlies Designer Kit ... so you can make creative treat bags for little ghosts and goblins.

On a sad note ... last week I was all set up to post the below entry for the colourQ challenge #151 and I was ten minutes too late  ... Ugg.  I can kick myself.

Owl Punch Tri-Fold Shutter Birthday CARD

It's time to party with SU Owl punch. Let's get the Party of 5 started.  This card was CASed and INspired with slight changes whose original can be seen by this talented artist:  Darlene Devries.  Darlene creates these awesome step-by-step videos. I can't say enough wonderful things about Darlene's cards ... full of inspiration. Be sure to check out her darling blog: DarleneDesign.com.  

 

Punches are a quick and easy way to add interest, dimension, and color to your cards, tags, and scrapbook pages. You can glue punched shapes directly onto your projects or layer a sheet of card stock that has been punched over a coordinating card stock for a reverse effect. In one quick move, our Two-Step Owl punch cuts out all of the pieces you need to build an owl. It couldn't be easier to create a great accent or focal point: just punch and then layer the pieces.

■ Includes an owl body, detailed eyes (not just one circle size but three so you can create dimension), and a small heart
■ New, sleeker body style
■ Larger surface area offers precise cutting and leverage
■ Locks to store

 Start with a 12″ long piece of card stock that is 5 1/2″ tall x 12" inch wide size

Score at 2″, 4" 8" & 10"
