Whew! I've been very busy the last few days working at son's school and finishing up making baby quilts. I have missed playing the challenges, sspecially the one for today for the numbers. I should of made some birthday cards for my twin sister and my husband tonight.
Today's Limited Supply challenge was to create a card using Halloween spooky colors. I've also wanted to try stamping with these flourish stamps. Just never knew how to use them. I thought I would give it a try here. I bought these clear stamps from Walmart by Autumn Leaves. I stamped one image 4 times in different directions with black ink onto only orange c/s. I sponged around the edges with ink. I used the cb swirls on orange c/s and mounted it to a piece black c/s. I added a piece of white c/s and used my cb swiss dots folder. I found this tree stamp in my misc. bin and thought it would be great for a wicked tree. I stamped it using black ink, used my 2-way glue, black emboss powder, and heat set. Sponged around the edges and mounted. I used my scalloped circles for the house and added white dots using the galaxy pen around the circle. All the layering are held on with pop dots. I also added bats using my cb boo set. This was a fun challenge too! TFL! Have a wonderful day and thanks for the early post!
