I love Halloween and as a crafter it can never start early enough. So, for the challenge this week, I am sneaking it in a week early. I hope you have fun getting an early Spook on. Carol x
Here's the first:
I created my "card" on a piece of scrap corrugated cardboard, which I then attached to a Kraft card base. The background stamp was embossed with black and marcasite (sparkly) embossing powers (combined), then dried with my heat tool. This card includes the following Stampotique stamps:
Unleash Yourself (text)
Two more cards to make . . .

Hi Kay, I'm blogging again at last! :) I LOVE Hamlet of Halloween, so happy to discover him on your card, it is not frequently used, I don't know why... And your aperture in your corrugated cardboard with these spooky faces underneath is fabulous!! Hmmm, I'm curious to see which cards you are going to create now for your two others grandchildren! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd for the giveaway, pls pls count me!!! I don't have this stamp yet, and it's just FABULOUS! Hope you are well, hugs.
I really like the way you've used the cardboard and love the spooky faces peering through the rent you've created: - very clever! I'm sure the grandkids will love this!
