Past Halloween Share

I've had these stamped for some time, but haven't been able to post them. They were loaded to my laptop, which has been giving me more fits lately. So, everytime I would finally get it to work - it would shut off before I could get these posted to my blog.

So, for what it's worth - here are 2 Halloween cards. These are the first Halloween cards I've ever made. I don't usually send out cards for this holiday, but got a cute set from The Stamps of Life and wanted to use them.

This first card actually never got mailed. So, I've already got one card ready for next year! I'm ahead of the game for once!! LOL!!

This second one I mailed to my goddaughter/niece. She's been playing catch-up with her school work, since she had surgery and was out for a couple weeks. She doesn't do the Trick or Treat anymore, but thought I'd send her the general Halloween card.

Supplies used for both cards:
Stamps: Thanks2Fall (The Stamps of Life)
CS: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, WW, Night & Day DSP
Ink: Pumpkin Pie, StazOn Black
Other: Scallop Circle Punch, 1 3/8' & 1 1/4' Circle Punches, Black Grosgrain Ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by today!! If you haven't done so yet - please send Jaimie a card and/or say a prayer for her and her family (from my previous post). Let's shower this young girl with cards from all over the world!

Stampin' Hugs,
Karen

Thinking of You

I just got this recently from The Stamps of Life. It is called Back2Basics and is a simple, yet fun set. There is so much you can do with it. You can see more samples on The Stamps of Life blog. I made this card for my niece. Apparently, the first card I made for her never arrived, so I'm hoping this one makes it to her.

It's hard to see, but I stamped the outline of flowers stamp in green on the background. Also, not able to be seen is the texture of the green card stock. Not sure of the colors of cardstock, as they came with my set. :)

Supples:
Stamps: Back2Basics
CS: Green, Red, Pink, Whisper White
Ink: Old Olive, Cameo Coral
Other: 1 1/4" Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals (under the sentiment), Velvet Olive Ric Rac, Scallop Edge Punch

Thanks for stopping by - be sure to come back!!
