Halloween Fun -- High Hopes

Hi there, Its me I'm back again  to wish you a Happy Friday!
We are already in the month of October, can you believe it???
High Hopes just released a new set of stamps for Halloween and I've been wanting to get my hands on them all!!!!!!
Today I'm creating with High Hopes Bat Friends found here!
and
High Hopes Block Halloween found here!
I was just taught how to create a triangle card base and thought it would be fun to create a Halloween  scene!
I coloured the image with Copics,  fussy cut and pop dotted  this little cutie  for added dimension. The sentiment was turned into a banner flag along with an extra cut from pattern paper.  The little vampire in this scene has a piece of folded paper adhered to his back then to the base of the card so he will stand up without falling over :)

 I realized part way through creating the card that the triangle base has a little pocket in the back that you could add some treats.  Since I created a Halloween card I think that worked out pretty darn good! 
The Copics that were used to create today card were ...
C1,C3,C5,C7,W1,W3,W5,V01.V12,V15,E50,R20,E21,V03,Black Copic, Sharpie white
Thanks for peeking!
There is plenty of time to enter this month's Fall/Winter Fun challenge for a chance to win 2 unmounted High Hopes Rubber Stamps of your choice.

Snow Kisses

I am so happy to share another stamp from the Fall/Winter Fun New Release at High Hopes Rubber Stamps. 

I used the OCS challenge sketch for this card. Meet "Snow Kisses" and the "Candy Cane and Mistletoe" sentiment. How cute is this stamp!?! 



After colouring my stamp with alcohol markers I added some dots to the scarf with a white gel pen and cut it out with a stitched square die. I love putting some sparkle on my Christmas cards so I added some glitter to the hat and scarf. It was my first time using Liquid Applique on her coat and I added some pink Frantage to the corner and sentiment. This cutie is mounted on paper from the Sugar Plum collection from MME. I love the soft, non traditional Christmas colours of the collection. I added a snowflake from a border die and some matte sprinkles from Doodlebug Design finish off my card.

Sweet baby Girl -- High Hopes Stamps

Happy Friday!
This is my last post of the month and I'm going to miss creating with these sweet baby images!



I wanted to do something different today ....so  I decided to die cut the stroller four times.  I glued them together in two's for added strength and scored the top of the back panel so it bends and sits properly on the table.

  Added a satin bow, sentiment stamped in a soft pink and a bit of bling to decorate this stroller!
This cute little baby was coloured with copics and sandwiched between the front  stroller panel.
Thanks for peekng!
Have a great weekend :)
