Boo!

So I wanted to make a few Halloween cards and send one to my daughter who moved out over the summer. I was super excited to share this card because I thought I was also going to be able to tell you that I used something I pinned over at pinterest...which is why we pin things. But anyway I swear I had this card pinned or saw it in a magazine but I cannot for the life of me remember so I might have just taken bits and pieces of a card here and a card there. So I was inspired but...

I love this witch from Wicked as soon as I saw this SOTM in the catalog I knew I had to order something to get it. Well I have not been disappointed that I bought it. I have a pretty big list of ideas for some more cards but considering that Halloween is already Monday I might have to make some of them up for next year :)

The stamping on this one is pretty easy just in black. I also edged the papers to age them a little and I also colored around the witch to pop her out a little.

I have a scrapbook page to share too but I have to fix the title. I misspelled an easy word....ooops. So me.

Supplies: 

Stamps - Wicked - August SOTM CTMH, Tiny Tags SU
Cardstock - Autumn Terracotta CTMH
Ink - Black
Designer Paper - Mischievous from My Minds Eye

Everybody's doing it...

Pinning. Are you on Pinterest? I love it, I mean a place to keep all of the awesome ideas that I find all over the Internet. You know stuff to inspire me to make later, decorate later, buy later. You can follow me here

So once you pin...do you actually use the inspiration? I did!!

I saw this adorable card from Booth 32 one of my favorite blogs...seriously have you seen her cards? Adorable! Here is the card I saw earlier this week and pinned. Here is my version. I changed out the colors and only used 5 monsters instead of 6 but the layout I used is the same.
