Boo!


I actually got out my acrylic paints and painted this scarecrow for my Halloween cards this year. I did stamp BOO on it and I stamped a mustache on one of the pumpkins .

I've been painting rocks and hiding them too so I also did a scarecrow rock and hid him at a nearby park.  I hope if someone finds him, they will post it on facebook :).

Cardz 4 Guyz - Halloween
City Crafter Challenge - Pumpkins
Deep Ocean Challenge - Halloween
Hand Stamped Sentiments - Halloween

Cards in Envy - Let's Play Dress Up (Halloween costumes)

Cards in Envy's second challenge for October is "Let's Play Dress Up (Halloween costumes). You can see the challenge here. All cards must fit into a standard size envelope for easy mailing. 

I made this sky background using my Tim Holtz Oxide Inks. Then just dropping water droplets on them and dabbing them with a paper towel. The Oxide inks really do make backgrounds easy!!

I hope you'll come play along at Cards in Envy.

Cards in Envy - Blowing in the Wind (Leaves)

Cards in Envy's first challenge for October is "Blowing in the Wind" (any card using leaves).  I decided to go outside, find a leaf and I smeared some Oxide inks on it and put it through my Big Kick machine. Voila!  A leaf imprint!!  Perfect for this challenge!  You can see the challenge here. All cards must fit into a standard size envelope for easy mailing.

This card is perfect for a friend of mine's birthday which is next week. I hope you'll come play along at Cards in Envy.
