A Special Request

This is it - the big weekend for eating lots of turkey is just a couple of days away, but this poor little guy has a special request for you - GO VEGAN!!!!!

This sweet image is from High Hopes Rubber stamps available here, and is called "Tom's Plea".  I have colored him with Copics including the front of the card.  Some ribbon trim and punched leaves finish off the card front.

Vampire Treats!

Happy Saturday OCS Friends!

Wow where did September go? I can't believe it's October already! With that being said, Halloween is right around the corner and who wouldn't love to get this adorable Halloween card! For my card today I am using the High Hopes Stamps "Vampire Treats" stamp.

I made a pop up card this time using the Elizabeth Crafts Design Lucy Label Pop Up die to make the card base. Then using my Design paper I decorated the card. I stamped some extra bats from the image and also stamped a larger High Hopes stamp called "Bat" to add to the little pop up box. All the red bats have clear Wink of Stella on them and after adding some die cuts and enamel dots my card was complete!

 This is the front of the card. I added another High Hopes stamp called "Bat", some YNS Halloween Divine Twine and a little pumpkin button. The 31 is cut out of MME Happy Haunting 12x12 paper that I had in my stash. 

 I used the sentiment "Frightfully Delightful" from High Hopes as well.

Don't forget to enter into our current Challenge called "Christmas/ Halloween/ Fall". I can't wait to see what you create!

Happy Crafting!

Halloween Mummy - High Hopes Stamps

 I love creating Halloween scenes. An easel shaped card is the perfect platform to do so! This little trick or treator is as cute as can be!

 Coloured with Copics and fussy cut. The image is from High Hopes called Mummy and you can find this little guy here!

The Sentiment is also from High Hopes "Frightfully Delightful" found here

The pumpkins are actually stickers that I hot glued into place. I made a quick 30 second video to share some of the details.  I hope you like it :D

I took this picture last year of a school in Erin Ontario.  I always make my husband stop so I can take a couple of pictures. I love the Fall Scene they create every year!

Thanks For Peeking :) Hope you get time to craft today!
