Stamping Bella & Halloween Challenges

Well, Jeremy had a job that lasted 2 days last week - then found out yesterday that he starts a new job on Tuesday (Monday's a holiday), working in New York City.  He's a union iron worker, so of course I worry about him at the same time that I'm excited for him.  He'll be working on the site of the World Trade Centers... it's actually quite an honor.  On most weeks, he'll leave on Sunday nights and come home every Friday - which will be hard, but we can deal with it.  We've dealt with worse, that's for sure.  If this turns out to be a long term job, it could be really, really good.  Keep your fingers crossed for us.  :)

First up today is my card for the:
Bellariffic Friday Challenge - Fall


I used one of my cute new Bella stamps, Natasha, colored with Prismacolor markers & pencils and mineral spirits.  Cardstock, rub-on sentiment, brads, ribbon, and glitter are from Stampin' Up!  I used a brayer with a Spectrum ink pad for the background.
Next up is a Halloween card that I made for the following challenges:

 I used the Halloween Skeleton Ian digi image, colored with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  Cardstock is from SU!  DP is from 7Gypsies & SU!  Ribbons tags are from my scraps.  

And last but not least - go check out Tiddly Inks today - I have another card featured over there, isn't that cool?  :)  Peace.
