The great pumpkin


Happy Monday folks! Three weeks till Halloween. Time to get started on your cards Pumpkin!!! 

Today starts a new challenge at Inky Paws! We are looking for weener cards! So pull out those spooky Newton's Nook stamps, stencils, and dies and have some fun!

My card today uses my favorite die set from Newton's Nook- "Speech Bubbles". I die cut the big speech bubble and stenciled just the faces from the "Jack-o-Lantern" stencil set. From the same set, I stenciled just a row of the pumpkins. The sentiment is from Newton's Boo-tiful Night.


No intro needed!

Hey there pumpkin

 

I just love making Halloween cards, I think I have mentioned this a time or two before. LOL!!  The colors for the challenge at Inky Paws were perfect for a weener card.

There is still time to play along at Inky Paws for our fallish color challenge. Orange, lime green, black, and cream. We haven't had much action for this challenge and I don't understand. These are great colors. So much can be done with them. 


Today's card features the following product from Newton's Nook. The flying bat stenciled embossed on the back card stock, the jack-o-lantern stencil, a great new layering stencil from NN, and lastly "Newton's Perfect Pumpkin" stamp set.


Today's musical inspiration is called "A summer song" but really it's about the end of summer and fall starting. Perfect for this time of year.

I made so many Halloween cards, I thought I share one just because I can. You can love a trio of fun loving bats. Scary?!!? I think not!!!

I used an old set from Ellen Hutson-"Happy Haunting". This one of my favorite creepy stamp sets. You can use it in so many ways!

Here is the wee witchy Pixie getting into what ever she can. Her middle name is trouble maker!!


Wishing all of you a fun Halloween!!

Boo to you


Soooooo....... from the scary to the cute. Last week for my Halloween card at Cupcake Inspirations, I wanted to "be afraid" Were you?  This week I want you to smile. I saw this card at Simon Says Stamp and used it as my inspiration. 

 

You have one more week to get spooky creative at Cupcake Inspirations!


Today's card features the "hey ghoul" die from My Favorite  Things.  The original ghost die had a smile, but a hole puncher wiped that smile from my ghosties faces! The stencil is from Altenew.

You have one more week to get your spooky on at Cupcake Inspirations!

Fang-tastic

 

Hey everyone! Happy Monday!  It's a happy day for me, just another day in my semi-retirement! 

Halloween is fast approaching and I hope you all all getting your weener cards completed. I am finally done mine. I just have to stamp the inside sentiments. I never stamp the inside of my cards when I make them, consequently, I go to grab a card and I am at the last minute stamping the inside.  Are any of you like that? You guys are probably way more organized than me!!

Today starts a new challenge at Inky Paws.

We have a fun sketch this week. I turned the sketch on it's head for my card. You don't have to use the sketch as it is given, don't be afraid to turn it around.

Today's card features a new stamp set from Newton's Nook called "Count Newton" and the "flying bats stencil".


Come and join our sketch challenge at Inky Paws.  We will chose a RANDOM entry to win a $20.00 Newton's Nook store gift certificate. Our favorite entries from each challenge will be highlighted the following Monday, so all entries have a chance to be featured on the blog.

Candy corn

I am a lifetime member of Weight Watchers, so this stamp set by Newton's Nook really me laugh. Any Weight Watcher is so going to get this sentiment.

This is our reminder week at Inky Paws. You have one more week to play along with our orange, brown, teal, and kraft color challenge.

 The question becomes do you like candy corn? I think folks have a love hate relationship with it. Also, when you eat candy corn do eat each layer or do you just pop the whole thing in your mouth?

Where did candy corn come from? Here is a quick video on the history of candy corn.
