House Mouse Halloween

Happy Halloween to all! Today I'm sharing the cards I made for two of my grandchildren. The third one received (hopefully today!) this one - except I added Stickles to the faces.

For this first one - and the second one, too, actually - I used House Mouse stamps for both the image and the "BOO." I colored the cute little image with Copic markers. The image and matting were cut with Spellbinders dies. The image panel is mounted on Dimensionals.
For the black panel on this second one, I applied white ink to a Fiskars texture plate, just by tapping the ink pad on the plate. Then I embossed the black cardstock and matted with Tangerine Tango from Stampin' Up! Once again, the image and matting were cut with Spellbinders dies. Both the image panel and sentiment panel are mounted on Dimensionals.

There is a new Stamp of the Week from Repeat Impressions, too. This week it's the Tombstone, found on this page. It's available for 50% off by visiting the Repeat Impressions blog, The House That Stamps Built, and following the instructions found there. You will also find the creations by some of the Rock Stars. We'd also love to have your join our challenges - both the WHAT IF? Wednesday sketch and the Designer's Choice Challenge (my "recipe!") See the blog for details and join in the fun for a chance to win a great prize.


Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

Your cards are adorable! I can't stop collecting House Mouse stamps. I think they have totally cornered the market on "cute". I don't even do "cute" style cards very often, but when I do House Mouse is my first choice. Oh... and no, I don't work for them or get compensated for comments like this. I just love the product.

Awww, so cute! So special for the kids. They love receiving cards from Grandma, don't they? All the Grandmas I know are the whole reason I make so many childrens' cards. They sure are fun!
