Halloween Monster Bucket

Are you thinking of Halloween yet?

Here is an idea for decorating a bucket.

I stamped the Halloween Kids on white card stock,

colored and cut them out then put them on a strip of yellow card stock.

I also added a couple of ribbons on the handle.

Ghouls Just Wanna was stamped and I used a die-cut circle.

Isn't this saying fun?

The res of the die cuts are from Spelbinders.

Here is Kid Frankenstein

Kid Got Blood

Pumpkin with Cat

Kid Dracula

Thanks for stopping by!

Take care, Vicky

New Card Kits and New Stamps

Hello!

Are you ready for some new Peek A boo Pouch card kits and stamps? I have a couple of cards to share with you today. I am using the card kit that has goodie bags inside.

The first one is the Witches Boots and Good Witch saying.

I changed the Witch's Boots. I masked the spider and stamped it to the left of the boots. Then I stamped the saying next to the boots. The opening flap is on the backside.

You get 5 cards and 5 bags to fill.

I added an extra stamp on the flap.

I mounted Happy Haunting Big on the flap.

Here is Haunted House Card Kit 14

Here is the bag of candy tucked inside.

I found out that Candy Corn comes in all different flavors now!

I got caramel flavor Candy Corn and Caramel Apple.

I sponged black around the edges and

I also put the FaBoolous saying on the inside.

I used the Peek A Boo card kit and another new stamp,

Tissue For Your Issue as a get-well card.

I stamped the Kleenex box on printed card stock and cut it out.

I also cut out the slit for the kleenex and put some kleenex in the box.

Under the flap I added a nice saying, Sending Smiles

On the inside, I added the saying Recuperate

and a package of Kleenex.

Hope you enjoyed the Peek A Boo card kits and new stamps!

Take care.

Demon Halloween Card

Hello Crafter,

I think Halloween cards are fun to make, they can be funny and snarky at the same time.

This was a simple Halloween card. I stamped the cauldron and frog and colored them with Copic Markers and then stamped the saying. 

I used a stencil for the bubbles. 

Cauldron

Summoning a Demon

Frog Being Crazy

Thanks for stopping by!

Stay happy and healthy, Vicky

Wicked

Hello, thanks for stopping by. 

Today I put one of our new hats on Betty.  Isn't she cute with her hat?

I stamped Betty and the hat.

The Witch's hat with spider doesn't cover Betty but I wanted the spider on the card

so I didn't have to cut it out or around it.

I stamped the hat on a separate piece of paper, colored it with Copic markers and cut it out without the spider.

I love to use Versafine for my words.

I did mask the Wicked and stamped the saying under Better.

Then I masked never looked so good and stamped the Wicked on top.

I used Catherine Pooler inks for the background with this Crocko Effect stencil.

I liked using the Clairy Brush because the brush comes to a point so I could make a small color circle around Betty.

Thanks for looking! I think this could be used for a birthday card too.

Hugs, Vicky

Safest Day

Hello Stampers,

I love this time of year when it starts to get a little cooler and it feels like things start slowing down.

I also love this time of year because Halloween is one of my favorite holidays! 

So we came out with NEW witchy stamps. I plan on using a lot of these all year long. 

Here is a new stamp, Witch Wendy and an older snarky one Safest Day.

I used Tim Holtz No. 23 Mini Stencil and a cut sponge with Memento Black ink.

I lightly sponged it with the stencil on and then sponged the entire card after I took the stencil off with the ink I had left in the sponge.

I spritz the stencil with water to clean it.

Then I laid a piece of card stock over the stencil.

It cleaned it real well and gave me another background card!

We also have all of the Halloween stamps on sale this month!

EEK

Vicky here today. Hope your week is going well. I thought I would share a Halloween card with you today. I really like Halloween, it is such a fun time.

I used our 2 stamps, the saying and the image. The saying, I stamped on green card stock and cut out the 'O' in Ghouls. The image is cut with a Spellbinder and I left the Spellbinder on the piece and sponged Memories purple ink around it then ran a black Spica Glitter pen.

The stamps are shown on wood, we also have cling mount and here is the link for cling.

 

Here is the link for the spider.

Here is the small size feet and

Here is our Trick or Treat saying.

Ghouls Got Blood

Another Halloween idea. My grandson loves this stamp, so I thought I would use it for his card.

 I stamped the image, colored it with Copic markers then cut him out. I cut out the green and purple frames from Spellbinders. Before I took off the die, I sponged black ink in towards the middle. The last frame is just cut a little bigger and I used corner punch. For the saying, I stamped the work Ghouls on green and cut out the O. I stamped the spider wed in the corner and added glitter to it and to the G. I wrapped the card with thread and it came through the web and I put the spider button at the end of it.

Here is the spider.

Eye Think I'll Have Another

I just don't know about the weather here in Janesville, WI. Last week it was in the high 80's and now we are in the 60's. I know fall is coming but it feels like it is 'falling' in fast. I am just glad to have the windows open and the air con off.

So, on to the card...With the Halloween parties coming up I thought I might do a invitation/card.

I stamped the image and cut out the frame with Spellbinders. Before I took the die off, I outlined the inner edge with the black Spica Marker.

The upper card looks kind of light because of the acetate over the glass and the embossed words reflected the flash.

 I stamped the glass on acetate and cut it out.  I colored the glass with Copic markers and covered it with clear lacquer. Then I put the glass I cut out of acetate over the lacquer. It made it look wet under the acetate. I thought I had a tooth pick with the frills on top to put on my card, but I couldn't find it.

There is a fabric mesh over the orange card stock behind the glass.

On the bottom of the card, I stippled black on the green frame I punched with Martha Stewart punches. I stamped the spider webs in the corners and added the Happy Halloween.-
