Spooky Sweet

Doesn't our color inspiration pic at Sunday Stamps #185 make you want to run right out and play a game of ring toss for a free fish in a baggie??  That's the first thing I thought of, lol.  I'll try to put that thought out of my head!
I know it's a bit early for Halloween, but how about some bats instead??  Yes, my holiday catty pre-order is IN THE HOUSE, and I'm breaking in Spooky Sweet today!  Now, I don't usually get very many Halloween sets - bug's too big now, and I've been warned not to give the neighbor kiddies heart failure, lol.  But this set comes with the very awesome Spooky Bats punch!  I can't say no to that!
I can't wait to see what YOU come up with!  See you at the challenge!

Pumpkin Throwdown

Oh my goodness - did you see the inspiration pic at As You See It #161?  SCARY!  I have to admit, I think I'll try to lighten it up a tiny bit with What Will You Stamp #139's Pick A Pumpkin, lol.  I also can't resist adding in these lovely spooky colors from Color Throwdown #466!
So, I was pretty stumped on how to build this card, lol.  So I decided to go through the Holiday Catty to crib a "sketch!"  Believe it or not, this card is actually CAS'ed from the Christmas Sweater card on page 22 - who knew it would go so well with pumpkins??  Hilarious!  Anyway, I gace them all spooky little faces, and resurrected this old Paper Pumpkin stamp from 2014's Boo-tiful Bags kit - pumpkin solidarity here...

Oo, check out this spooky inspiration pic at Fusion Wreath this week!  It will be a tough call to combine with the happy sketch!
OK, by pulling out all the stops, I think I managed to "fuse" the two offerings - THIS card won't be winning any speed races, lol.  I realized I still have my beloved Mr. Funny Bones set from last year for all my skeleton needs, lol - perfect!  And how about a Halloween Harvest wreath?  I can even squeeze in a bog 'ole lime bow from Jar of Love.  So much fun piecing this baby together - and I even like the final result, lol.  Good and spooky times!

A Halloween Hi

We have a very modern sketch from Case This Sketch #243 this week!  I think this clean and simple, but spooky, challenge from Paper Players #366, will be a perfect partner!
So, in case you didn't notice, while I did get most of the pumpkin, gourd and fall collections this year, I didn't actually get too much that was Halloween specific this year.  I'm usually all over it, but I've been slowing down a bit with my kid getting a little big for trick or treating, lol.  I still decorate, almost as much as Christmas, lol, but I don't need many cards.  So I have to turn to some retired goodies today:  the awesome Happy Haunting DSP, and The More the Merrier stamp set.  I LOVE this row of little leering pumpkins - don't they look like trouble?  A few paisley ghosts behind them and we have the perfect scene!  Spooky!

Scary Skeleton

I'm so excited by this week's Retro Rubber Challenge #73 - BOO!  I love my old Halloween sets!  I'll use  the layout from Freshly Made Sketch #308 to help me along!  These spooky colors from Color Throwdown #464 seem appropriate, too!
I was glad for a chance to browse the retired shelves - I just finally got my work room rearranged enough that I could get my retired sets back up on shelves instead of hiding under my desk in produce flats - whew!  What a job it was getting my shelving squared away, but I'm so glad to have the legroom back under my desk, lol.  Anyway, I spotted my Scary Skeleton set from 2009 - I love his googly eyes so much!  I kept it fairly simple, a little embossing, sparing on the color, but at least he's dancing!  He must be as happy as I am about being out from under the desk again, lol...

Oo, this is a cool layered and angled sketch at Case This Sketch #240!  I think I can squeeze in some texture for Just Add Ink #378, AND even go for a Fall/Halloween theme for In{k}spire Me #318!
OK, when I went and actually LOOKED for Halloween sets, I had a horrible realization:  I might not actually have a current one!  Could that really be?  I got lots of gourds and pumpkins, but I was more looking at Fall themes.  But wait, looks what's hiding at the end of my shelf - Sweet Home, which also has haunting elements for a Spooky House!  Yes!  Let's do this!  I started out by layering about ten million colors for that fancy angled edge (well, ok, only 5) that I had to get out my sheet metal shears to trim, lol.  Then I built my Spooky House, and added in a ghost, some bats, some bones - so fun to play with all the pieces!  I did have to cut the bats and bones before stamping though - too tiny to line up, but easy enough to make work my way with the photopolymer - yay!

Here's a fun floating panel at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #292!  I'm giving it a whirl in the Halloween colors from In{k}spire Me #271!  Also tossing in my usual Pumpkin Wednesday, too!
So, today was fun - I like to play with shapes and colors, BUT.  I think this might have to be my last Halloween card for the season, lol.  I'll see pumpkins in my sleep, and taste them, too, I'm afraid!  I had some fun digging out DSP in the right colors, and then I decided I wanted my pumpkin to be the main focal feature today, too.  A little Wink of Stella does a lot to add dimension!

I'm so super excited to be a guest contributor at this week's What Will You Stamp #86, featuring Cookie Cutter Halloween!
By far my fave little cookie in this set is the mummy - isn't he adorable??  Yes, the skeleton is a close second, but it's really the mummy who holds my heart, yuk, yuk..  I got to thinking about how my newly acquired Seaside EF kinda reminded me of his wrappings - so that's how I landed on this background panel, lol.  I added a little bit of sparkle and a simple thinlet sentiment from Seasonal Frames - who's your Mummy now??

OK, what's not to love about our FABulous spooky colors at this week's Fab Friday #98??  Lucky for me, What Will You Stamp #85 is all about Spooky Fun this week - I spy a Halloween marriage made in heaven, lol...
Today I decided my cute little witch needed to get some air-time, lol, and I had a lot of fun setting her a perfect little scene to view.  When I thought I was done, I also felt like I was a little light on the Old Olive - that's no good!  So I added some flourish vine bedding for my little pumpkins.  These are such great thinlets!
Can't wait to see your take on our colors over at the challenge - can't wait!

Exciting day for me - I'm taking a crack at a new-to-me challenge over at Case This Sketch #192!  I think it'll go great with these fun colors from Create With Connie & Mary #426!  With these colors I think I'll also include In{k}spire Me #269's Halloween/Autumn challenge.  And of course, it's Pumpkin Wednesday - the day I try to always do a Paper Pumpkin alternative!  FOUR challenges is definitely a new record for me, yikes.
So, I found this juggle harder than I imagined - I had a really hard time working Dapper Denim into a Halloween card, lol.  Also, since the Smoky Slate ink wasn't as dark as I wanted for my jack o'lanterns, I had to stamp over them THREE times, lol.  So, not totally thrilled with my final result, but an interesting exercise.  My sketch addiction is getting me in trouble, I think!
