I am actually up over on the PFS blog with this spooktacular card. You can hop over there for all the details.  I used the Ghouls Made Me Do It and If You've Got it Haunt it stamp sets. 

I also have this cute Halloween tag for you today. It uses the team favorite, Trick or Treaters. You are going to die over the cuteness of this set. I stamped him in Intense black ink and then colored him up with Copic markers. I used the matching Trick or Treaters Die to cut him out. In the background I used the Ghouls Made Me Do It. The sentiment was borrowed from the Witch, Please stamp set. I love it. #stayspooky

Let's just say, as a boy mom, I have always loved monsters. The cute, fun ones, not anything scary. So when we got our sample sets for this release I was so giddy! The set is called Monsters Ink and it's perfect for Halloween and just about any other occasion. If you follow me on Instagram (@lisahenke) then you saw my sneak peek earlier this week of the monster party I colored up. I used a few of those ghoulish cuties on my two cards today. 

For this first card, I did some ink blending with Distress Oxide inks and used a circle stencil to create the moon. I stamped some bats in the background from Boo Balloons and added the Boo! Word die (previous released) in black card stock. I made the scene a little more spooky with one of the Spooky Tree dies and then added in my copic colored Monsters Ink. I used the matching Monsters Ink dies to cut them out and then added them to the card base with some foam dimensionals. Here's a closer look. 

The next card is actually the first one I created with the Monsters Ink set. I had this paper that made me think of the movie Monsters Inc and so  I used it in the background and colored up the furry beast to look a little like Sully (minus an eye)  from the movie. 

I couldn't resist the punny sentiment, so I repeatedly stamped the eye image in the Monsters Ink stamp set and hit it with some white embossing powder onto a Midnight Stitched Circle. I love how this turned out. 

I have a few more ideas with this set, so I think you'll be seeing more cards in the near future. 

Here is the blog list for today!
Don't miss the awesomeness from the design team.

I was in die cut heaven with this card. It is no secret around here, I. Love. Die cuts. They make for easy card making and add so much interest to any project. There are some fabulous dies that just Released! I am gah gah over the Harvest Moon die. I love the stitching details, and there are sweet little jack 'o lantern faces you can use to customize your pumpkin patch. love that! I cut it from Sand card stock and then used my copics to add some orange color and highlights. I forgot how I love the look of copics on kraft card stock. 

In the background I used some Distress Oxide inks to create my spooky night sky. I added some "grass" detail along the bottom with the Mini Stitched Chevron Border. Two other new dies I added are the Stitched Bats and one of the Spooky Trees. 

I stamped the sentiment from Boo Balloons set in Midnight ink along the top. So many fun details.

Reverse Confetti September Release Countdown-Day 1

Hello! and Welcome. It's release month for Reverse Confetti and we are kicking it into gear with all the holiday feels!  It's time for Countdown to Confetti.....the September release sneak peeks start today. All the new stamps, dies, and paper will be available for purchase on September 8!

Don’t forget to leave a comment here and on each sneak peek post this week for a chance to win!

In addition to having a chance to win just by leaving a comment on the sneak peek posts, we are also running a Facebook promotion.  After you are done checking out the sneak peeks, head on over to OUR FACEBOOK PAGE and look for this graphic pinned to the top of the RC feed…

 Let's jump right in with some Halloween fun. I just love these spooky cuties called Frightening Friends. I stamped them all up and colored with my Copic markers. I then cut them out with the coordinating Frightening Friends Confetti Cuts. I also colored up the tree, clouds, and jack o' lantern so I could use them to build my spooky scene. 

In the background you'll see a cool new cover plate, it's called Criss Cross Cover Panel Confetti Cuts.  I cut it with Stone card Stock and layered it over a Stormy card base. I used two strips of the newest paper from the 6x6 Abundant Autumn paper pad. 

I used my distress tool to rough up the edges and then rolled the ends in a bit. I stamped the sentiment from Frightening Friends onto a Tag Me Confetti Cut banner in Midnight ink. 

I decided to pair the card up with a little treat bag. I used the new Bags & Tags Creator Confetti Cuts with Sand card stock. I love that I can cut out a stitched window to show off the treat inside. It's a cool die, you cut two pieces and the score each piece in the same position and then adhere them together. 

There are cool tag dies included in the set that coordinate with the new Boo Yea stamp set. I cut the tag base in Rust card stock and then stamped the sentiment circle in RC Aqua ink and added it to the top of the tag. I wrapped the candy bar with some Abundant Autumn paper and tied on the tag. I added the fence and jack o' lantern from Frightening Friends stamp set. 

SO excited to show you more tomorrow, so come back! 

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs, Lisa 

Picket Fence Studios-Beware of the Cat

Have you checked out Picket Fence Studios yet? Now is the time.....there is a fabulous  selection of Halloween stamps. I love how they can all be mixed and matched together, or used on their own. I had big plans to use a few different sets, but once dove in I decided to stick with just the Wicked Together stamp set. 

I started with the Tangerine card stock and the Thanks & Hello Confetti Cuts to create the frame. I used a pencil to trace the outline of the window on the card base. I then stamped the word block stamp from the Wicked Together set in a light grey ink. I then added some bats in Midnight ink. 

While I had the black ink out, I stamped the cat onto Premium Polar White card stock and the "beware of the cat" sentiment along the bottom of the Tangerine panel. I fussy cut the cat out and added it to the opening of the frame.
