BOO

 

CAS868 - Halloween

For this card, I used a pumpkin die cut from Sizzix and layered the pieces together. I sponged green ink onto the bottom corner of the card base for added depth. To create the sentiment, I die cut the letters B and O from black cardstock, using the pumpkin as the second “O” to spell out BOO. A ghost die cut peeks out from the letter “O,” and I finished the design with a few green candy dots for a playful touch.

WT1056 - Monsters

I love Halloween themed craft goodies but rarely get a chance to use them. I learned last year that my son's girlfriend loves Halloween and said I could send her Halloween themed birthday cards! Win-Win!!!!

For my card, I used several Spellbinders die cuts to create the scene and added sponging to color up the pieces. Several places were highlighted with a white gel pen and the scene was layered on a glitter paper.

The birthday sentiment was popped up on dimensionals as well as a few other elements in the scene.

CAS764 - Fall Critters

For my card, I used this fun critter from DRS Designs. I sponged the card base with 2 blue distress oxide inks placing a scrap paper to create the hard edge.

I then stamped the image and colored it with copics and fussy cut it.

Next, I used my tutorial Moving Around Your Sentiment to line up the sentiment all on one line under my hard line.

I pulled up the image on dimensionals and used a paint pen to add some stars behind him.

For the leaves, I used some scrap paper and sponged some different fall colored distress colors to the scrap and then punched out several leaves to use up the scrap paper. I love how them came out.

Skull Birthday

 FS870 - This week's incredibly talented featured stamper is Raye Lynn (aka CreepsMom). I love her username too. I found this INSPIRATION and here is the INSIDE.

My friend Anne (jdmommy) made a card a while back with this skull. My son loves skulls and got one tattooed on his chest. I mentioned to her that I was looking for more skulls to add to my collection for him and she was kind enough to stamp off several in greys and blacks.

Today's inspiration was perfect to remind me of these skulls for a card for my son's birthday with the skulls around the outside of the coffin. I saw the cats all around the inside of the box and thought I could do that with these skulls.

I fussy cut all of the skulls then glued them around a black card stock. I then trimmed the edges and added the additional cut pieces around the edges to add more filling in the card stock.

I layered the piece on a silver mirror paper and added some black gems.

The card was finished with the birthday sentiment banner popped up on dimensionals.

Thank you, Anne for these great skulls, I love, love, love this card and it is so perfect for my son. Thank you, Raye Lynn, for the inspiration.

Spooky Scary Halloween

 

CAS760 - Halloween

I have had this die cut for several years and when I picked up this new stamp from DRS Designs I just had to use this die cut for a very creepy Halloween card.

For the card, I used a textured red cardstock. I then stamped the sentiment using red and black. I then colored the skulls and die cut the sentiment popping it up on dimensionals.

This has to be one of my favorite Halloween cards of all time.

I also used 2 yellows for the moon and added some grey to the frame.

The image was popped up on dimensionals and I added 2 black stripe stripes to the top and bottom to pick up the stripes on the image in the frame.

I did not get a chance to play in the Free for All challenge and thought another Halloween card would be perfect especially since my image has a bat in it perfect for the CAS challenge of things that fly.

For my background, I put a circle mask then sponged the setting sun with a few yellows, orange and then I added a bit of black to the bottom and blended the colors.

Once the colors were added I stamped the sentiment and tree trunk.

WT917 - Create a card inspired by Halloween (does not have to be a Halloween card)

These cards started with me trying to use up the scrap Halloween paper. I cut the layers then used my Cricut to cut the fun Halloween critters adding some sponging to a few of their layers and a bit of white gel for some highlights.

USEIT2022 - Bow

I don't often create Halloween cards but I just had to make this one. For the card base I used the colors in candy corn then created the shaped card base by cutting off one corner and using that as a template for the second corner. 

Next, I cut a white card base, added the orange and yellow and then used the same cut off template to create the shape of the candy corn layer.

I then stamped the hat, colored with copics and layered finishing off with the bow from my tote of items I am trying to use up.

Halloween Witch

 

MAR22VSNB - light - one layer cardstock

My mom asked me for a Halloween card and I just had to use this witch. She is one of my favorites in my collection.

I stamped the witch image along with the Halloween sentiment on the base. 

I then masked the front of the card leaving the circle unmasked. I used a few yellows and orange to create the moon.

Once the moon was created, I masked the moon and sponged black, purples and pink. I then unmasked the moon and added some additional yellow over the pink.

Halloween Greetings

 I needed one last quick Halloween card and I love a good Clean and Simple card that packs a punch. This card was super quick with just the right images.

I started with stamping the CANDY CORN BORDER - 606D and the DECO HAPPY HALLOWEEN - 707E then I colored up the candy corn.

Once I was done I thought oh this needs more. Well of course add a couple of EMPTY SPIDER WEB - 329G in the corners and then I just had to add the 4 IN 1 HALLOWEEN SILHOUETTES - 1152D,  I just drew in the line from the sentiment to the spider.

Halloween Greetings

Happy Halloween

 

I just had to use this Silhouette Witch Cauldron - 716K again. She is so perfect for a fun midnight scene.

For the card I masked the moon with a circle stencil then sponged 3 different blue oxide inks starting with the lightest around the moon and added a hint of black at the bottom.

Once the scene was colored I stamped Silhouette Witch Cauldron - 716K and the Batty Happy Halloween - 548G in black.

Happy Halloween

CAS657 - Going Postal

F4A6065 Monster Mash

I wanted to try the Faux Postage for a very long time and this CAS challenge is perfect.

I printed the postage sheet then stamped this fun flying witch in each of the postage stamps. I then masked off the stamps and sponged orange on each of them. For the card base I embossed a web on black card stock then popped the postage up on dimensionals.

I finished with this fun sentiment.

Enjoy the Ride

FS763 - This weeks incredibly talented Featured Stamper is Natalie, better known around here as Natalieoshea. I found this fun CARD

I was drawn to the scalloped center of the card and it was perfect for showing off my focal. I added the first layer with ribbon rather than paper and then added a ribbon banner. I also added some fun black die cut leaves to add interest and finished with some star brads.
