Halloween Is Just Around The Corner!

Ok, so usually I am not that into making Halloween cards, but this year I made an exception. Stampin' Up released ADORALE photopolymer (clear) sets in the Holiday catalog that I just had to have.  I used 3 different SU ets to make this card. First, my hill side from "White Christmas".

 

Next the spoooooky house from "Holiday Home".

 

 

                                            I also used the pumpkin, spider web and bats from this set.

 

I stamped the moon using a small circle from "What's  Your Type", another cute Stampin' Up! photopolymer set!

 

 

If you would like to order any of these sets I would love to be your Stampin' Up! demonstrator!

Too Cute For Spook!

 

  Hello friends! We just got home from vacation, and I have so many new stamps to play with and not enough hours in the day! I gathered up some new stamps from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog that goes live on August 28th. The cute pumpkins, and leaves are from the photopolymer set "Fall Fest". This stamp set has matching dies! The sentiment is from a hostess exclusive stamp set that you will be able to earn in September called "Good Greetings". Be sure to check back tomorrow for a peak of more goodies from the Holiday catalog!

I have never been a fan of scary Halloween like ghouls, goblins, and skeletons, but I LOVE cute Halloween! This image by Pink Cat Studios is so darn cute and I had to have it. For this card I used DSP from SU. The image was colored with Pro-Markers, with a few SU markers also. The ribbon is from a roll I picked up at a flea market, I have never used it on a card and thought it would be perfect for this card! I sanded the black dsp with a sanding block, and sponged the edges of the layers with red, and black ink. The sentiment is from a House Mouse Halloween set.  Finally I accented the card with a flower I made using the SU Scallop circle punch with a Making Memories fabric brad in the center. I know this card doesn't have the classic orange, black, purple or green Halloween colors, but I think it is a fun, light hearted alternative to the darker images of Halloween. I am playing along with 2 challenges today:

The Paper Players Challenge - Create a card using one DSP, something punched, and a sentiment.

PaperPlay Challenges - Make a Halloween card.
