For my first one, I decided to cut black silhouettes and make a fun scene using my go-to colors for Halloween cards: purple, green, gold, orange, and black, of course!
supplies: black, gold, purple, and Green Apple cardstock, cat and small bat from Spooky Boo dies, tree, fence, large bat and sentiment from Spooky Cottage dies, circle die, googly eyes
This was fun to put together! I stamped a swirly magical background onto the purple sky, added some green ground, then cut a gold circle for my moon, shading it with ripe persimmon ink, and then added my black silhouettes. I pulled the bats' wings forward and stacked my sentiment for some added dimension; the googly eyes I have fit perfectly into the Boo! There are lots of fun details built into these dies!
There's a little 2-piece mummy die in the Spooky Cottage set that I wanted to use on my 2nd card.
supplies: white, kraft, pale grey, and black cardstock, scraps of Doodlebug Halloween printed papers, Spooky Cottage mummy dies, (retired) Hero Arts Halloween sentiment
A much simpler design this time - I dug out some ancient leftover scraps of printed Halloween papers to showcase my fun Mummies!
Hope I've given you some smiles today - thanks for dropping by!
Two darling Halloween cards, Lin! Just love the haunted house scene with all my favorite Halloween colors (especially purple!!). I recognized that swirly background too :) and the googly eyes on the Boo add the perfect touch!! That trio of mummies - what a stitch!! So cute for trick or treating!!
