Eat, Drink, and Be Scary

Today's card is another in my line of PL card inspired greeting cards. I wanted to make a simple Halloween card and what better to use than some fun DSP and a nice spooky saying. Love it!

Motley Monsters Cards

I made these two cards to teach at my Halloween and Thanksgiving card class.  I tried to make them simple yet fun.

Card #1

The first card was all about featuring the Motley Monsters DSP. But I didn't want the busy pattern to completely overwhelm the card.  Enter the small polka dot page and larger sentiment oval. As an alternative, I made another card with black CS and white craft ink for the sentiment.  I may just like the black better...

  • Stamps: Wacky Wishes
  • Inks: Bermuda Bay
  • Cardstock: Bermuda Bay; Crushed Curry; Tangerine Tango; Motley Monsters DSP
  • Accessories: Brights Candy Dots
  • Tools: Sponge daubers; Ovals framelits; Hexagon punch (banner ends)

Card #2

The card card was all about my new tag punch.  I saw a variation of this card on Pinterest, but wanted to add some more visual interest.  The inclusion of the pumpkin did just that!

  • Stamps: Halloween Street;
  • Inks: Tangerine Tango; Stazon Black
  • Cardstock: Crushed Curry; Whisper White; Motley Monsters DSP
  • Accessories: Tangerine Trim
  • Tools: Scallop Tag Punch
tags: Fall Fun, Halloween, Halloween Street, Motley Monsters, Wacky Wishes

October Month of Cards Week 2

For October's big crafting goal, I am attempting to make a different designed card everyday.  Instead of flooding everyone's feed with tons of posts, I am just going to do a weekly wrap-up post with my cards.  Apparently this week was all about Halloween and Thanksgiving cards.  Next week I'm going to break out into non-holiday cards.

Day #6

 
  • Stamps: Fall Fest; random Michael's stamp
  • Inks: White Craft Ink; Tangerine Tango

Day #7

A simple negative image to make a fun 3D ghost.
