Today is our After Party, and the Design Team has come up with even more eye candy to inspire you with the newest YNS goodies!

I've whipped up a couple of simple cards using the new Silly Monsters set. These little guys are so much fun! I have about a dozen of them colored up, ready and waiting to be used on more projects!

       

For the first card, I dusted off one of my poor, neglected embossing folders... I can't even remember the last time I used one! The monster is colored with Copics, fussy cut, and popped up on a circle sponged with Dusty Concord Distress Ink. I also used a couple of dies from the Fishtail/Banner Die Set.

      

    

Body - B06, B04, B02, B00, B000

Spots, Horns - V09, V06, V12, V01

Tongue - R22, R20, R000

        

  I love the sentiments that come in this set! So punny and cute!

I used a lot of similar elements on the second card, but changed up the color combo and layout. The patterned papers on both cards are from my scrap bin... yay for using up some of those scraps!!
