 Happy Halloween!! 

I can't believe October is over! I've enjoyed creating so many Halloween projects this month!! The Greeting Farm has amazing stamps and digi sets to get your Halloween creative juices going!! 

And yes since it's Halloween and being the last post of this month I had to sneak another Halloween themed creation.    No card today.  I created a Halloween decoration using the amazing set Hocus Pocus (you can request it for our next Farmer's Market check details HERE).  

I created a cutsey spooky vignette box.  This was so much fun to create!! 



I started working on the box and adding halloween paper on the walls and sides.  





I colored the images with Copic markers and cut them with my Brother Scan and Cut.  I started to create a little scene in each nook. 




I propped the images with a folded strip of cardstock.  Added a bunch of the new 2022 Ideology embelishments. 




Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great Halloween night! 

XOXO

Boo To YOu: Hello Bluebird Stamps

 Hello 

I love this time of the year as I love creating Fall and Halloween cards!! I created this cute Halloween card using the adorable set Frighful Little Bits and Boo to You die from Hello Bluebird stamps

The ghosts and bats are just too cute!!  




I ink blended the background with Distress Ink Oxides and used a mask stencil for the moon.  I sprayed it with water to give it a cool effect and spackled the background with liquid shimmer. Love how it turned out.   For the Boo to You I die cut it in orange and black and several white and glue them all togehter to give it dimension.  



All images were colored with Copic markers and die cut.

Hocus Pocus!

 Hi TGF friends! 

Have you seen the new Hocus Pocus 2 movie? I really enjoyed it! and what better way to continue the Halloween theme than another card using the amazing Hocus Pocus set!! I'm on the TGF blog today sharing this card. 


I stamped this cute little witch on Copic cardstock and colored her with Copic markers.  I masked the image and ink blanded the background with Distress Ink Oxides.


 I used a stencil for the moon.   I put together the skeleton from a die set. 




Colored and fussy cut several small images from the Hocus Pocus set (special set released but you can always request it in our Farmer Market) .  Some of these were glued to the background or popped with foam adhesive.  The sentiment was heat embossed with fluorescent green embossing powder.   I really love how this little spooky scene came together!  Supply list below.
