It's the 13 Days of Halloween! ~Day 12~

Hello, all! We're in the homestretch now! It's the twelfth day of the 13 Days of Halloween over at the Simply Betty Stamps Blog! The 13 Days of Halloween are an annual celebration at SBS throughout the month of October full of challenges, prizes, and surprises! So stop by and join in!

The twelfth challenge of the 13 Days of Halloween is to create a shaped Halloween card. Remember no squares or rectangles!Use your imagination and create some shaped cards that are totally creepy!

Check out the Simply B Stamps blog for all the fun details!

This is my project for this challenge:

 

I created this tombstone shaped card using my Cricut Expression and the Oct 31 cartridge. The image is Mr. Roberts from The Roberts Portraits collection created by Abigail Larson for Simply B Stamps. The image is colored with Copics. I used Distress Ink around the edges of the tombstone and Liquid Pearls to accent the edges and contours. 

Stop by tomorrow for the final 13 Days of Halloween challenge!

Day 5 - 31 Days of Halloween

Hello, all! Day five of the 31 Days of Halloween! Are you getting tired of me yet? Lol. Today's project uses a recycled item; a pretzel tin left over from Christmas, to be exact. I knew I didn't want to throw it out because it was a sturdy tin and the pretzels inside had been sealed in a bag which kept the inside clean.

Pretzel Tin.

Happy Haunting Tin. For this tin, I used My Mind's Eye The Spider's Web Paper Collection to cover the tin. The crow is from Dusty Attic that I inked with Black Soot Distress Ink. I also added a Stickles Eye for the crow in Christmas Red. The text stamp I used is from my stash and I remember paying about a dollar for it at Big Lots. The flowers are various white flowers I had that I misted with a combination of Hag Wart Orange mist from Lindy's Stamp Gang and Shimmerz Terra Cotta mist.

Happy Haunting Tin. Here is another view of the tin so you can see the sides.

And don't forget, during the month of August the DT members at Scraps of Darkness used some gorgeous papers from the Robin's Nest and we are so happy to announce that the Robin's Nest is doing a series of blog posts featuring Scraps of Darkness layouts created by the Design Team. Every Wednesday they will feature different DT members. I would love for you to check it out!! Click here to visit The Robin's Nest!!
