Free Digi Friday- I Owe You 3!!!!

Hello crafty and stampy friends!!

I have not been on top of my free digi Fridays for the last few weeks.  Our printer broke down and I am still waiting for it to get fixed.  Hopefully soon.  So, I can't share any cards made with digis but I can share some digis I found in the last few weeks that *I* think are super cute!!

Hope you'll enjoy them and please leave comments to the artists to thank them for their generosity!!

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

A Bit Out of the Box

I rarely make home made crafts.  Not my forte  :)  But, I saw some Halloween bottles on eBay and thought I could do that!  So, here's what I came up with.   Got some bottles at the thrift store, printed labels found by googling Halloween bottle  labels images.  Threw in some fake spiders, eye balls and skeleton from Michael's.  I adhered the labels with Modge Podge and covered the entire bottles to give them some texture and age them a bit.  Died some cheese cloth with tea.

 My sweet cat had to inspect them  :)  Hope you like this idea!  Super quick and simple!!!

Party Chick

Inspired by this card from Moe Joe.  I love the sketch of her card and thought I haven't used my exacto knife in a long time, and I was on a mission to use what I have!!!  I have so many supplies from years of stamping, I feel like I really need to use what I have before I go and buy some more fun goodies!!  Thanks for stopping by and have a happy day!

You're a Hoot

Inspired by this card from Sarah Jay.  I didn't have a long branch stamp so I free hand cut it and went around the edges with a black marker.  Stamped the owl on a piece of scrap paper, cut it up and popped it on Pop Dots!  Voilà!!  Thanks for stopping by!
