This card used the same stamp set, (Simply Holiday Deer) except for the sentiment which came from Unity (Winter Cheer and Deer)
Very close resemblance wouldn't you say! She got a kick out of it when I showed her the paper pattern.
Today I'm sharing the last 2 cards that I made and sent out to people for Halloween this year.
First up a super easy "no stamping" involved card.
Card Base: Basic Black Card Stock (SU) I then layered that with a piece of the Haunted Hues paper that I distressed with some Crushed Curry ink as the ghosts in the pattern were super white and I wanted them to match the ghost from the ephemera packet.
I layered the ghost paper over a piece of Pumpkin Pie card stock that I had embossed with Basket Weave Die (Concord and 9th)
I then used a Unity Scallops and Circle die to cut out the ghost from the Epherma pack . I also cut out the boo sentiment from the same pack and distressed the edges with some pumpkin pie ink. I mounted the sentiment and ghost with foam tape and added some gems that were given to me.
Card #2
Card Base: Only Orange (retired SU - which I miss), Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist and Basic White.
I used the Polka Dot circle plate from Concord and 9th and then stamped the bats in Black ink over the top of the embossed piece after I had the rest of the layout in place.
The tree was stamped with Granny Apple Green ink, the owl in Smoky Slate, the Pumpkin in Only Orange. I added a strip of the Granny Apple Green to the bottom of the tag, some yellow glitter to the pumpkin and some yellow/orange gems to the tree to complete the card.
That's it for today's cards. - I'm working on Christmas cards now so you should be seeing them in the future.

Here is the sketch:
Below is the card that I made for these challenges.
My very first Christmas card of the season. I'd best get busy on my stash!
Card Base: Real Red, Other colors used: Basic White and Mint Melody (retired) Designer Paper from SU from a couple of years ago.
Stamp set: Simon Hurley - Silly Santas and matching dies.
Inks: Real Red, Memento Tuxedo Black
Other: Swiss Dot Embossing Folder, Circle dies, foam tape, sequins
Getting this in under the wire so if you have questions about it feel free to email me.
I had a blast creating this card.
My card base is: Highland Heather (SU) The designer paper is from DCWV - Spooky time stack. I purchased at JoAnn's a couple of years ago.
My card process often takes on a mind of it's own as I had started with a totally different pattern of paper but didn't like how it was turning out. Then I decided to switch papers and am happy with the result.
The images were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Ink and colored with various Copic markers and cut out with the matching dies.
I blended Fresh Freesia and Misty Moonlight ink (SU) on a piece of white card stock. Then cut it out with a Unity Die. I also added a cut our border in black like a frame. Before adding the frame I splattered on some white splatters using a Lustre Brush from Scrapbook.com - I was excited to finally get a night sky that I liked. All the images were mounted onto the sky with foam tape. I added some sequins to the background as well. I also added shimmer to the ghost with a Wink of Stella pen.
I finished off the inside of the card with the spider and web from the stamp set: Waffle Flower - Boo stamp set/dies. The sentiment is from an old stamp set from Amuse Studio (Spooky Boo Day) .
Again this card was a lot of work but I am thrilled with how it turned out and I hope you enjoy it too.
Welcome & thanks for stopping by.
Since I loved the Paper Players Color Challenge this week PP698 I decided to make a second card for the challenge. I had some elements left over from yesterday's card that didn't work for my card idea and thought why not put them to good use.
This card is very different from the sweet little mouse card from yesterday's post. I hope you like it just as much.
Have a great day & happy Stamping!
