A Terrifying Halloween

Hi Everyone! Today on the Penny Black blog the design team is focusing on fall. I decided to have some more fun with the sketch I first used HERE . I love reusing sketches or looking back at older cards to get a jump start on a new design. I used the Penny Black  Dark House  stamp to create a spooky little scene. I added fog with vellum and paper pieced the moon. For a little fun I added a strip of glitter to the top and bottom of the focal point (a halloween card can have some sparkle, right?) and finished the card of with the a Terrifying sentiment. I hope you had a great day! Thanks for stopping by! Terrifying Halloween Card: Dark House 3499F, Terriflying 3711E

Trick or Treat Friend

Hi Everyone! I'm so excited to share this card with you today. Its also featured over on the Penny Black blog today. So be sure to visit over there and check it out! I took the super cute Mimi & Friend stamp and decided to use just the Friend. :) She reminded me of a little girl out on Halloween so I search for a treat basket for her and found the perfect pumpkin in the Trick or Treat set. I trimmed the top of the pumpkin, lined it with black ink and added a strap with black string. Mimi's friend is ready to go! I appreciate you stopping by today! Have a great day!

Holiday Kickoff

Hi Everyone! The holidays are just around the corner, can you believe it?! I decided to dig in and make my first halloween card. I'm always looking for creative ways to use my stamps. I love getting as much mileage out of them as possible. So for today's card I took an Easter bunny, gave her a costume and... ...now she is perfect for Halloween! The options are endless. For easy costume making, I stamped the bunny image in white ink on the felt. I then cut out the pumkin shape considering her head and feet using the inked image as my guide. I then flipped over the felt and put on her custom taylored costume. *smile* I also want to point out that I created the card shape using Nestabilites Labels 8. I ran the largest die through on two sides to create fun new look! Have a great day! Stamps Used: Penny Black Bun-Bun (Bunny), Salutations , Robust Upper Case
