Lori Whitlock November Blog Hop

 

I adore these dimensional cards! They certainly make me smile. 

I love paper piecing so these cards were right up my alley! To speed up the process I made them all at once, cutting all the red pieces, then the white pieces etc in bunches and then just piled each piece in their snowman, tree,  gnome, reindeer, snowglobe  or santa pile. It was an easy project to do while watching a good movie. 

Some of the cards have print and cut sentiments to add.

I pieced the main elements and added them to the base with pop dots-fast and easy and ohhhh so cute!

Garland Pixie (Frantic Stamper)(Penny Black Inc.)

Song of Peace

I chose to go with the ATG's option

Isn't this little Garland Pixie adorable?  I colored her with copics and cut her out with my ScanNCut machine.  I added a bit of snow at the bottom for her to stand on and a sweet little sentiment. The base die is from Lawn Fawn.

Beware of the Locals

Lettering Delights-The Wanderer

I saw this cut file and fell in love with it. Where I live we were the epicenter of the Legend of Big Foot/Sasquatch. There was  an office near my home and Mr Big was often "sighted" in the mountains around me. I suspect it was someone in a furry suit trekking the mountains making footprints to excite the locals LOL! Do you remember that 80's movie named Harry and the Hendersons?? I am sure it was inspired by Mr. BF!

I cut the card file and made a computer generated sentiment using Chiller as the font. It's a rather large card (6x8) so I think I would resize it next time. 

 I hope you enjoy this-it made me smile!

Northwoods Witch

 

Oh my...I have had this stamp for ages and I have never used it! It was one of those stamps I just had to have and it has sat for probably 10 years. It is no longer available that I could find, but Northwoods Rubber Stamps still has some cute stamps on their site. Enjoy!

I started this card weeks ago but was dragging my feet with all the fussy cutting I had planned. I was fairly sick of the color orange so I decided to make a pretty pastel Halloween card. 

This wonderful classic stamp is from 2002! Oh gosh I love this stamp!  The sentiment is from those old $1 Studio G stamps of years ago. I have a great stash of them-they have the best little sentiments. Do you remember them? I added a few little silver stars and called it good.

Bio.

I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people.

I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

Vintage Stamps

Witch Way to the Candy (Stampabilities HMUR1067)

and 

Little Punkin (Stampabilities HMF1010)

For this card I wanted to use this spooky Happy Halloween sentiment.It's very dramatic and perfect for Halloween. It is a vintage InkaDinkaDo stamp from the stamp set All Hallow's Eve, I blended a bit of distress ink for the dark sky and splattered a bit of water on it. I cut out my meecies and added them on to the card with pop dots. To finish it off of course I added a few little bats I cut with my Silhouette. I have a stash of them lol. The images were cut out with my ScanNCut.

Pumpkins, Ghosts & Mice Oh My! (Stampabilities- Vintage)

I colored this funny vintage stamp from 2004 with copics. I can't believe I have had all these wonderul stamps and they are still like new. I colored the image, added a few bats and cut apart an embossed sentiment from the new HM Halloween stamp set Trick or Treat. (SSS, Spellbinders)

You can see past cards made with these stamps Here and Here. 

I keep all my Halloween stamps in storage containers like THIS and then pull them out every year. I have so many stamps I have never used along with so many classic stamps. They are all my favorites. I don't usually make so many Halloween cards, but I had fun just watching movies and coloring away this year!! 

In trying to find some of these vintage stamps for sale so I could link them, boy was I surprised. I found the wood mount Pumpkins, Ghosts and Mice, Oh My!!! There was one listed for  $59.99-can you believe that???? I guess I am sitting on a gold mine! House  Mouse stamps are an investment!

Too Cute To Spook 

Welcome to our midway inspiration for October! 

I seem to use this Catman  almost every year!  It's so cute and one of my favorites. I certainly have gotten my money's worth!

I used a Silhouette cut file named Boho Rattan Wicker Arch Frame for the card base. I resized the file to fit the kitty image and then cut two pieces for the orange card base. I thought it looked a bit like a scary gothic doorway!

The sentiment is from a small Lawn Fawn set named Trick or Treat. I also cut a few bats to add around the cat.

Darn I see I didnt color the punkin stem...I will do that before I mail it.  

You can see all the cards I have made with Catman HERE. It was fun to take a trip down memory lane!

 

I would love for you to hop over to our challenge blog
