Trick or Treat!!


Hey there hens!!! Hope ya'll had a great weekend!! We had a FANTASTIC birthday party for Dinky! She LOVED it, and when we got home she said, "that was the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER! Of course, Momma hen was purty proud of herself. Everything turned out better than expected. LOVE it when that happens!!

For today's card, I couldn't resist using my new Cosmo Cricket paper pad "Haunted". So I went digging for the purfect image to pair it with and decided on this SUPER cute trio from Stamping Bella called "The mummy, the witch, and the pirate" I think they're just adorable, don't you? Ok, so I stamped them onto Bella's Bestest paper and colored them with my Copics. I cut them out with my oval Nesties and sponged around the edges. If you'd like to see how I do that technique you can watch my video tutorial HERE. I also thought the little white picket fence would look cute behind them so I mounted that towards the bottom and then stitched around the edges. I tied on this purple grosgrain ribbon and matted the piece onto some purple CS and then onto the SU Basic Black cardbase.

Trick or treat, smell my feet, gimme sumthin' good to eat!! Bwah-ha-ha-ha!! That's it from the hen house today, be sure to leave a cluck below and let me know whatcha think, k? Hope you hens all have a great day and I'll see ya back in the coop on Wednesday! {{{hen hugs}}}

Oooooh, don't forget about my TKT challenge. You have until Wednesday at 7:00pm EST to link your card below on my August 12th post. Can't wait to see who the next KRAFTY CHICK is!! Woo-hoo!!

Supplies:
Rubber Stamp - Stamping Bella, CS - SU Basic Black, Prism Frosted Amethyst; DP - Cosmo Cricket; Copics; Nestabilities; Purple Grosgrain Ribbon
