Bats and Ghosts

Today’s card was sent to the other twin for Halloween. I am so glad that I kept the bat punch after it retired. They add the perfect finishing touch to a spooky card. I kept the rest of this card simple with a black and purple color palette. The addition of the silver glitter tape pulls the card together.

Bats and Cats

Today’s card was sent to one of my twins. I pulled out some DSP scraps and started layering pieces together. Once that was set, I added an embossing folder and some punched shapes. I finished off with a simple sentiment. Love it!

No Tricks Just Treats

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card featuring Candy and Treats. I wanted to feature the pretty Silver Glitter Ribbon and the fun Spider Trinkets. I played off of the colors in the witch hat DSP to coordinate my ink and cardstock. Simple, fun card.

Sky Full of Bats

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using our favorite Holiday Catalog Bundle. Usually I gravitate toward the Christmas bundles and stamps sets. While that is true this year, I also found myself coming back to the Spooky Sweets Bundle over and over. I love the simple bat and moon images. And I always love a coordinating punch! I just had to pick up this bundle to play with this season.

A Witchy Birthday

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a Halloween card. When I made this card a few weeks back, I hadn't decided to buy any Halloween stamps. (I eventually bought the Sweet Treats bundle because I just really enjoy the bats) So I looked at the paper I had and realized that fussy cutting the witch and cauldron wouldn't be that hard. And so a card was born! I added some fun background paper, a strip of something else and a die cut sentiment. I love how the polka dots on the witch's outfit mirror the polka dots on the background paper.
