Cookie Cutter Halloween

cookie-cutter-halloween-1-0916This little skeleton guy is just too darn cute!  I know.  I know.  I didn’t want this stamp set because it was too cutesie.  I should have know better!

This card is almost an exact copy of one I saw on Pinterest.  Have I ever mentioned how much I love Pinterest?  I’m not sure I could create without it!  OK…that may be a slight exaggeration but I’d have a much harder time creating without it.

This week is my Halloween and Fall class.  I’m actually trying something a little different.  I had designed three Halloween cards and two fall cards for the class.  When I sent out an email for people to sign up someone cookie-cutter-halloween-2-0916asked me if they could just make fall cards since they didn’t really get into Halloween.  It got me thinking…why not?  So I decided to give my customers some choices with the five projects.  They could make the five cards as I designed, they could make the Halloween cards into treat bags if they wanted or they could make 5 fall cards (3 of one design, 2 of the other).  In the second picture you can see how I altered the card so the focal point would fit on the treat bag.   I’m anxious to see how it all works out.    It might be something to offer again in the future.  #6monthstampingoals

The light colored background piece is watercolor paper which I gave a watercolor wash to with Smoky Slate although it is hard to see in the picture.

I was a little sneaky with  my Halloween Night Enamel Dots….I colored them with a black Sharpie so they’d match the card a little better.  What do you think of my random threads?  I used both silver and black.  I don’t think they turned out too bad.  One of these days I’ll get the hang of randomness!  Ha!

It’s almost October and time to really get into Halloween.  I’ll have to try and play a little more with all of my Halloween products!

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
