  Hello everyone.   This is a short post celebrating Wednesday Addams and Halloween.   I am a huge Wednesday Addams fan, and I'm happy that the 2nd season of Wednesday returns tonight.   The other day, I was working on some Halloween cards using the Tangled Souls Journal Papers from KCS Designs by Kim , and I realized that one of the papers in the collection looked like Wednesday Addams.  I had to make a few cards using this image.  And, since she is known for her morbid wit and detached demeanor, I wanted to use some of her quotes on the cards too.   All 3 cards use the same image - doesn't she look like Wednesday?  One of the cards has a simple Happy Halloween sentiment on the front, and the other two use quotes I found that could be used on a Halloween card.    This card uses a simple Happy Halloween sentiment on the front of the card ,and inside is blank for a message.     This card uses her quote ...

  Hello all.  It might be August, but Halloween is right around the corner, and today is a great day to start to make some cards.  Today's cards are Design Team Projects for KCS Designs by Kim  on Etsy, and they are super easy and fast to make.   I used one of the papers from both the  Carnival of Shadows Journal Papers  digital kit, and the  Mixed Media Paper Purples and Greens digital kit.   The Carnival of Shadows kit has 20 different images of haunted, creepy, gothic, and disturbed employees of the Haunted Circus that only comes to town in October each year.  For my card, I used Wicked Wanda, the witch.  For the background, I fell in love with the Mixed Media Paper Purples and Greens because it has all of the colors of Halloween - purple, lime green, and black.  Card No. 1   I made a top-folding A2 card using black cardstock. I printed one of the papers, die-cut it using a 4.25" x 5.5" stitched rectangle die...

Hey everyone.  Today is my first Design Team Project for  KCS Designs by Kim .  The owner, Kim, has a store on Etsy that sells digital junk journal papers, mixed media papers, clip art, brushes, and other digital items that are perfect for cardmaking, album making, junk journals, or any other papercraft idea. I hardly ever make traditional junk journals, but I love to use digital junk journal papers and collections in my mini albums, photo folios, and cards.  Today I am sharing some cards I made using papers from the Mixed Media Flowers  kit - a set of 12 beautiful journal pages of mixed media flower designs.      I've also have a video showing how I made 2 other cards using the same collection, and you can watch it below or on my YouTube Channel - World of Michael Trent .   KCS Designs by Kim is also having a Summer Sale - 45% off the entire store - through July 31, 2025.
