Sizzix Eclips Users Group Challenge: Use an SVG Freebie by Birds Cards, Simply Crafty, or Dreaming Tree

For the current challenge at Sizzx Eclips Users Group, we are using Freebies! As it is close to Halloween, I thought a cut and quick card would be fun!

I really wanted to just use stash, so I made the card using Paper Studio papers and an embellie from Graphic 45 - both I'm sure purchased before I retired!!!!  I added a little shadow to Halloween to make it stand out a bit better against the paper pattern.  Thanks for the challenge, Jan - it was fun!

Scrap Borders

Hi, all!

For today's card, I really wanted to use up some borders from Graphic 45's Place in Time collection and Halloween in Wonderland collection. I've had all these scrap borders for quite a while and would often take them out, look at them, and then use something else. I suppose I was waiting for an idea to strike. I'm sure that's happened to you. You love a paper, buat it just takes you a bit to come up with an idea for it. Who hasn't experience that!

Anyhow, I decided to add an image from Place in Time - and a butterfly chipboard embellishment from The Robin's Nest.

Here's my project, which I hope you enjoy. I had two lumps of fun as I used Graphic 45's Hallowe'en in Wonderland and Happy Haunting paper lines to make bridal shower party favors. Shelly, my new daughter-in-law, had a Mad Hatter-themed bridal shower - so you know I had to put my two cents in with some cards for guests. Here are just a sampling of the cards.
