Spooky and Sweet
Spooky!
I wanted to make a spooky Halloween card and this was a fun and easy project to stamp. I began with some Black Magic Coredinations card stock and ran it through the cuttlebug with the pumpkin folder. Then, I sanded it using a Tim Holtz sanding block.
I grabbed some Stampin' Up Ruby Red card stock and stamped the moon using bleach as my ink pad. (I just poured a tiny bit on my scrub pad and tapped my stamp right on the bleach part. That will leave a big white mark on your scrub pad but I don't care. If you care, do this instead- Use a plate with some folded paper towels and pour the bleach on the paper towels to create a make-shift bleach ink pad.)
Then, after the moon dried, which I helped along with my heat tool, I stamped the rest of the images with black Memento ink.
The corners were punched using the new EK Success Fancy corner punch. The ornate style is perfect for Halloween! A few brads and some Hemp twine and the card was done! (The yellow card stock is Stampin' Up More Mustard. It matched the bleached moon perfectly!)
Sweet!
Just a little personal stuff- Here's a snapshot of Teddi. She was so happy that the little tiny basketball was running out of air. That's the only way she would ever be able to pick it up! (She only weighs 5 pounds!)
A puppy, a ball, and sunshine. Pure bliss!
Have a great day!
Hugs,
Gina K.

Spooky card Gina, love the background. I need to get stamping with Halloween images.
Teddi looks so adorable, Jake carries around a soccer ball with no air... but he weighs 90+ lbs!

Hi Gina,
You're not going to believe this, but my mother had a male pomeranian named Teddy and he looked just like your female Teddi! I was responsible for his name because when she got him I said he looked just like a little Teddy Bear and the name stuck. Teddy has been gone a few years now and is still dearly missed. I really like the pumpkin folder on your card, too.

Cute card and I love that you used bleach for the moon. I made a bleach pad with some sheets of felt too and kept it in a container with a lid. Love the different effects bleach has on different colored cardstock. Thanks for sharing. Teddi is adorable!

Of course now I see why I also should have ordered those corner punches!!! LOL Very cool!!!! I love the bleached moon!! And what a precious pup!!! I agree........pure bliss indeed!!

I love what you have done using your newest Halloween stamp set. Bleaching the moon is such a great idea. Of course I love that you added the new punch cut outs in 2 of the corners of your card. It came out awesome. I have used this set to make a card and I was very pleased with the results.I hope to be able to use this set more. I *love* silhouette stamps. The picture of your dog, Teddi is beautiful. She looks so sweet.
