Lil Witches Halloween card 2 - Whimsy Stamps

Greetings friends!  I posted a Halloween card a few days ago and I am now posting a second card that I made with Whimsy Stamps pre-colored Quick Card Fronts called "Lil Witches".  This second card has the same design but, this time, I used another cute image and inked the edges of the frame with purple instead of aqua.  You can use these fabulous Quick Card Fronts as they are, or you can embellish them.


As before, I used a frame die and inked the edges with distress ink.  Next, I gently inked the edges with black ink to create a spattered effect.  The frame and the sentiment are matted on glitter paper.

That's all from me for this post.  Take care, Lori xx

Resources and Tools Used  

Frame:        Spellbinders "Label 13" dies
Cobweb:     Joanna Sheen "Cobweb Corner" die SD492
Sentiment:  Computer generated

Lil Witches Halloween card 1 - Whimsy Stamps

Greetings friends!  Halloween always evokes some special and cherished memories for me of when my kids were little and we went Trick-or-Treating.  They are adults now but that doesn't stop me from making a Halloween card for them. LOL

I decided to use an adorable pre-colored image by Whimsy Stamps called "Lil Witches" Quick Card Fronts.  There are quite a number of these fabulous quick card fronts that are available.  All you have to do is to embellish them, or just use them as they are.


I used a frame die and inked the edges with distress ink.  Then, I gently inked the sides with black ink to create a spattered effect.  I matted the frame and sentiment with black glitter paper.

That's all from me today.  Have a lovely weekend.  Lori xx

Resources and Tools Used 

Frame:         Spellbinders "Labels 13" dies (how fitting!) 
Cobweb:     Joanna Sheen "Cobweb Corner" SD492 die

Pumpkin Mouse by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps

 Hi there, friends!  Time for a brand new challenge over at the Lemon Shortbread Challenge Blog.  

http://lemonshortbreadchallenge.blogspot.com/

I love Halloween because my boys used to love going Trick-or-Treating.  Such cherished memories!

For my DT inspirational card, I chose the adorable "Pumpkin Mouse" image by Lemon Shortbread, found here:

https://www.etsy.com/listing/477287683/digital-stamp-pumpkin-mouse-digi?ref=shop_home_active_118


I wanted to add some texture so I used an embossing folder and inked it with autumn colours.  As usual, the image is coloured with Copics and Polychromos.  I used 3-D foam under the sentiment.

I wish you a happy day.  Until next time.  Hugs, Lori xx

Materials and Tools Used 

Frames:      Coluzzle Cutting System "Ovals"

Sentiment:  Free clipart from the Internet

Embossing folder:  Darice "Fall Leaf Background"
