"Mummy" I love you!!

Here are a couple of my attempts at Halloween cards. They use some of the products available in the Christmas/Holiday seasonal catalogue (products only available til 31st January 2013). The catalogue definitely had me looking for dollars behind the couch cushions because it has sooo many yummy things!  If you would like a copy of the catalogue just email me (susan.coates1@bigpond.com) and I will pop one in the post to you. Anyway - on to today's cards.

I embossed the orange background piece with a polka dots folder. The image was stamped and fussy cut. It's actually two separate images. The spider was adhered with a dimensional and the mummy was stuck to the scallop circle with snail.  The scallop circle was popped with a dimensional.  Then the whole piece was popped over the ribbon on dimensionals.  The cute little googly eye is self adhesive and is available in a set of 50 for $4.50.



Supplies:
Paper - basic grey, basic black, pumpkin pie, old olive and very vanilla c/s, "howlstooth and scaringbone" DSP (seasonal catalogue)
Stamp - "googly ghouls" (seasonal catalogue)
Ink - basic black
Tools - Big Shot, "polka dots" embossing folder, 3.2 cm scallop circle punch (seasonal catalogue)
Other - googly eye (seasonal catalogue), spotted ribbon is from my stash
Adhesive - snail, sticky strip, dimensionals

Going to class tomorrow for some crafting fun.  I always come away so inspired!  I love how we all have the same "starting" point but everyone comes up with their own interpretation - even if it's only a different colour way.  As Karen says "a mistake is not a mistake, it is an opportunity to embellish!!"

Happy crafting!
Cheers
