About a week ago, there was a thread posted in General Stamping titled, "What's the Deal with Halloween Cards?" On that thread, Happy Heart listed a few versatile phrases to go with Booglie Eyes like "Happy Mother's Day, Mummy" and "There's not a ghost of a chance that I'd forget your birthday!" So, the next card I made with a Halloween image, I decided to try and find a non-Halloween sentiment. After uploading it, I thought, "I should make this a challenge!"
Here's the original Halloween card thread. Happy Heart's ideas are on post #7
Please put LSC81 in the keyword box when you upload!
Limit: Halloween images and non- Halloween sentiments Stamps: Halloween images, non- Halloween sentiments, plus any backgrounds Ink: any Cardstock & Patterned Paper: any Accessories: any
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

Art is intended to provoke an emotion from a total stranger. If you�ve succeeded in this, consider yourself an artist. Paper Shanks Blog. Love me or hate me, you are still talking about me
Sounds like fun! I love Halloween and I have plenty of halloweeny stamps so I'll have to see what I can come up with. Can't wait to see everyone's ideas!
Very fun challenge! I was having a hard time coming up with non-Halloween sentiments, so I brainstormed with my sister, she comes up with the best sentiments! Arachnophobics Beware...
This is a 4.25 x 4.25 card.

I love Halloween. I think I own so many Halloween stamps but this challenge was hard for me. I got the inspiration from my DD. Pink and sparkly, so why not do a spider. OH well I will try again tomarrow. Thanks for an awesome challenge Jen.

Oh Man - what a fabulous challenge!!! I cannot wait to see what everybody does with this. I am on the road all day at work today and won't be able to peak or play until tonight. Have fun guys!!!
This will be TOUGH -- I don't have ANY Halloween stamps -- there MIGHT be one little witch in a celebration set from 5/6 years ago -- I'll have to go check --
I do not have any Halloween stamps that I can think of because I am not a fan of this holiday...so I will be checking out all you guys' great stuff. Boo Hoo, this will be my first challenge that I have missed in a long time...maybe I can find something that might work in all my stash!

Ok, here's mine. It's not real creative and I'm hoping to try this challenge again. First I need to do some brainstorming to come up with some clever sayings.
I haven't had time to look at the samples so I'm not sure if this has been done yet but this is what popped into my mind. I would have loved to have had a skeleton but this is the limited supply challenge after all!;) I drew in a gravestone instead.
