Our theme for today’s blog hop is halloween – what would you do? I’m not much of a halloween person. Growing up, this was a favorite holiday for my folks, dressing up and dressing us kids and visiting neighbors & friends. They even had a Halloween group that gathered for costume competition and evening of fun. I just have to say – not my thing for some reason.

This was actually very fun to create, despite my angst about halloween :O) Them Bones DSP found in the Sep-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog was my ‘go to’ and it served as the ‘purfect’ background. I cut the panel to fit the Basic Black card base front and adherred it in place. Next I fussy cut these two images from another piece of Them Bones DSP: the skeleton-like dog and skeleton-like cat, put dimensionals on the back of each and added them as you see them here. And let’s just say, I needed to trim the dimensionals so they would fit on the legs and tails of each animal – and it worked! I needed a sentiment and looking through my stash found this ‘BOO’ from Cottage Wreaths stamp set (one of my favorites!) I stamped it in VersaMark ink then sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with the Heat Tool – all on a Basic Black strip. I trimmed it with my Paper Snips and put dimesnionals on the back. I then cut a length of this wonderful Gingham Ribbon in Black & White, put glue dots on it’s back and put both in place. I pulled out my embellishments and found these 2023-2025 In Color Dots – in Copper Clay and added them to the card front. And finis!

The spider is another of the stamps in this Cottage Wreaths stamp set and so totally right for a halloween card. It was stamped in Memento Black ink on the Basic White panel, then this was added to a Pumpkin Pie piece slightly larger, then into the card base. And it fits the bill for a halloween card that I love. Hope you do too!
