Halloween Cards 2

Hello!
My last post I showed you a couple Halloween cards.
Today I have the other 2 that I made to share with you.
I started with this background piece that I had in my stash.
I used alcohol inks on a coffee filter, then cut the filter
to size and adhered it to a piece of card stock.
When I was ready to use it, I ran it through my Cuttlebug
in an embossing folder to get some texture.
I stamped the witch with black ink and colored in the
other areas with colored pencils.
Once it was fussy cut, it was adhered to the card.
For the sentiment, I stamped the spider web, then
the greeting and fussy cut around some of the web.
I used the same web stamp for the BOO greeting
for the inside sentiment.
Used the same witch stamp for this card and adhered it
to an alcohol inked background along with the sentiment.
Inside I used the same stamps and added some other 
spider webs in the corners.
I loved making these cards, my biggest problem
is deciding which kids get which cards.

I'm glad you stopped by today and hope you have 
enjoyed it and have been inspired in some way.
Hope you'll come again soon.
Until then,
enjoy the season!

Halloween Cards

Welcome!
Halloween will be here before we know it,
so I decided I better get a few cards made.
Today I have 2 of those cards to share with you.
This one was very simple to make.  I sketched a
pumpkin and cut it out, then traced it onto the back of
this burlap "paper" and assembled the pieces into
a jack o lantern.
I found the background paper in my stash and thought
it would be perfect for the background.
I used the left over piece of the background paper inside the card,
stamped the web, spider and sentiment onto a piece of
white card stock, mounted them and I was all set.
This card was also very simple.
The color doesn't show up correctly for some reason,
it's actually a dark purple color.
I stamped the ghosts with white ink, then fussy cut one more 
and mounted it over one of the ghosts.
Stamped Happy Halloween and was all set with the front
of the card.
For the inside of the card, I stamped the spider web,
then the BOO over the top of it.
I cut around the BOO and adhered it inside the card.
These are very simple ways to make cards pretty quickly.
I really like how they turned out.

Thanks for stopping in today,
I hope you've been inspired in some way.
Come again soon and I'll show you a couple more
Halloween cards.
Until then,
BOO!!!
