Happy Haunting


Happy Friday!!

Sorry I've been missing in action this week, but I've been knee deep in getting things ready for my annual Halloween party and also helping out with Link Up For Pink.

I'm popping in today to share a couple of simple Halloween cards with you.

The first uses a fun bat from Paper Smooches, stamped on black paper with white ink, fussy cut and a couple of google eyes added. A few banners cut out of some fun patterned paper, a bat border punch by Martha Stewart used on one edge and some twine.



Supplies used: patterned papers - Weathered Black by Lasting Impressions, Icon Stripe and Witches Feet in Spook Alley by Making memories, Toil & Trouble by The Girls Paperie, and Monster Stew by Jillibean; stamps - Falling For You by Paper Smooches and $ bin at joAnns; ink - Tuxedo Black by Memento; and white by a la Mode; Copic marker; bakers twine - my stash; twine Liz's Paper Loft Boutique; charm - Doodlebug; border punch - Martha Stewart; Google Eyes, Pop Dots.



The second card uses a sketch from DeConstructed Sketches to just layer some papers by Cosmo Cricket, with the top stamped with a sentiment stamp by Bug Bites. Then a chipboard bat, also by Cosmo Cricket, added for fun.


Supplies used: card stock - dark orange, black; patterned papers - Them Bones, Nevermore, and Ominous all in Haunted by Cosmo Cricket; tag - Haunted by Cosmo Cricket; blackboard bat in Haunted by Cosmo Cricket; stamp - Magic Spells by BugBites; ink Jet Black Archival.
