Halloween is a Hoot!


I love making Halloween cards. With this one, I used the Owl Punch in Basic Black as well as the Branch from the Bird Punch to make a silhoutte in front of the moon. The moon was made with the Circles #2 Die through the Big Shot and sponged with Pumpkin Pie ink around the edges. I used the new Spider Web embossing folder for the background on the card. I then used the stamp set Halloween Hoot for the saying. The colors I used were Pumpkin Pie, So Saffron, Whisper White and Elegant Eggplant. I also used dimensionals, scallop oval punch and other oval punches to make this Halloween card.

WHOo's Got Gum?



This card was made with the new owl punch. I made gum holders years ago and decided why not put an owl with the Woodgrain background stamp on the front. The ink colors I used were Chocolate Chip, Garden Green, Real Red, Whisper White and Daffodil Delight. I used Chocolate Chip ink on Crumb Cake cardstock for the Woodgrain Background.
