Hello Hello!
Today I have a card for you that I made for the current (not for very long, cause I'm always late) challenge over at Lawnscaping.
I thought it was about time to start making Halloween cards, although we don't celebrate it here and I'm probably never gonna use them. I got the "happy hunting" stamp set from Lawn Fawn a couple of weeks ago, and although it's not one of the new ones, I was super excited to get it, cause it's super cute!!
The challenge over at Lawnscaping is to use text on your card:
To add the text to my card, I stamped the long sentiment from that set several times just on the center of the card base. I like how it looks with the picture frame over the top.
Now, I'm not really sure if Lawn Fawn has tombstone stamps, but I know I don't have any, so I decided to make my own. I used this:
Sorry for the bad pic, but I had to use my phone for that one (ups!). Anyway, I thought that the door of the spooky house, was perfect for it. I just colored it, cut it out and wrote RIP with a black marker over it. Here you have a close up of the end result:
So there you go, just start looking at your stamps to see if you can use them in a different way! You still have a couple of hours left in this challenge, so if you have time, give it a go!
Also, this week is "Anything goes" over at Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog, so I will be entering that too.
Thanks for stopping by!
