Spooks and Sweets

October 6th, 2008

Ok….so I never made it back on Saturday with something for WCD.  My apologies.  It was a busy busy busy weekend!  Yesterday I got together with a few stamping buddies and started working on a batch of Christmas cards though.  I got about half way through a batch of 30.  I had designed the card last year using Dashing dp.  When I get the batch finished I’ll share.

Today I want to show you a Stamp a Sweet Impression card I made a while back, but hadn’t photographed.

Don’t you love the little floating ghosties?  This super simple card is made with Trick or Sweet and the sentiment is from Frightful Night both available at Taylored Expressions along with the Halloween Key Ingredients Kit.  The cupcake in his ghostie costume was stamped several times and colored with Copic Markers.  I used a gray Copic along the inside to highlight the white and a yellow Copic around the outside of each ghost to give them a *glow*.  The sentiment was punched out with the SU key tag punch and I embossed it with Versamark and clear ep.  The ribbon is from the TE Key Ingredients kit too.

 

I think this would be a great Halloween Party invitation and it’s simple enough to be able to make up a bunch of them.  *You’re Invited for Spooks and Sweets* – I just love that sentiment.  Almost makes me want to throw a party!  😉

Bedroom update:  we bought another set of curtains on Saturday, but decided we didn’t like them once we saw them in the room so they have to go back.  I’ll be ordering some from the Penny’s catalog as soon as I have a minute.  I promise to share pictures as soon as we get curtains and some artwork up.  We still need to get clothes back in the closet too.  For now I just walk in and stare at how pretty it is….and I hope we don’t lose focus before we finish with all the little details.

 Hope you have a great week.  I hope to be back on a more regular posting schedule now…we’ll see.  Thanks for stopping by.
