Day 1 crafting

My first vacation day had me doing some paper crafting so I'll show that before I go on to day 2. 
I made a Halloween card for Presley. I used an image I created with Bing AI. The description I used was "A whimsical Halloween party in the forest with witches and ghosts in the style of Mary Engelbreit." I loved the images that I got and will show the other 3 it created in another post. Here is one on the card that I created.


Next I wanted to make card for Presley's mom because she just opened her own business. She opened a beauty salon. This was the card I did.

I wasn't happy with it so I redid it. First I thought the pink paper looked too plain. Then the hairstylist's heart didn't come out as well as I had hoped using heat embossing. I redid the heart using a different embossing powder and I used an embossing folder on the pink paper to give it some texture. I liked my second attempt a whole lot better. 


Finally I made some Halloween tags to put on some goodies bags I'm putting together.


The Pumpkin wobbles which makes them extra fun

I love the tag!!! Even better than the pretty card. It looks like it is from an expensive gift shop.
