31 Days of Halloween Day 6 - Thanks for the Pumpkins

Hello Nomad friends.   Getting ready for the big day.  My friend lets me grow pumpkins in her orchard.  Thanks Elin.  

Embossing was one of the first card making techniques I was shown and I still think it's quite magical.  I used Sizzix Spooky House embossing folder and pumpkin dies.  The cat is Cheery Lynn diecut with neon blue eyes.  The thank you was a finished bought topper.

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Chick-a-boo

Hello Nomad friends.  I have been quite slow getting my boo on this year, but the feeling is starting to creep up on me.  So here's a little card for a young man I know.  

I started with a piece of navy pearl card and used a small Trick or Treat embossing folder for the sentiment.  The spider is another embossing folder.  I actually flubbed it a bit cos I debossed it, then decided I would get away with flipping it over and embossing it as I originally intended.  Results in a not so sharp spider, but spooky enough!!!  The grey and white bit is a thin Wave embossing folder, embossed on pale grey card and then I smeared with Hickory Smoke distress.  The fence is Memory Box Wrought Iron Gate cut 4 times.  I cut and pieced Poppystamps Large Chickadee from shades of orange and gave him some googly eyes.  A few die cut bats and done!!

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
