A Tiddly Inks Halloween

Oh what fun we have at the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog today. We're celebrating Halloween in major style and I really think the Tiddly Inkers have outdone themselves. There are so many cute Halloween images in the SHOP that it was tough to choose, but when I saw Sugar Angel and Angel Spice with their little treat bags (and their fab haircuts, LOL, available individually, as well, but the set is such a DEAL!), it brought back fond memories of trick or treating with my BFF, so I thought I'd create a little scene. The house and fence are Tim Holtz dies and the grass and kitty, MS. The little row of pumpkins are felt from Queen & Co.

I merged the two images in my Printmaster Program. This is SOOO easy to do with the PNG version of the images in any computer program like Photoshop etc. Then I colored them up with Copics and cut them out with my Nesties Grand Oval. The top of the sentiment is done with my trusty Alpha Beads.

The easel card is done with my Nesties Labels Three Grands. The fun candy DP is an older K&Co stack. To hold the easel up, I've added a row of adhesive beads and completed the sentiment with a puffy sticker from atd. I just know you'll want to play along with this fun challenge AND on Christy's BLOG you can see the new images as well as a contest for Fall cards that you won't want to miss. See ya there! I'm also entering this in the Simply Betty's 12 Days of Halloween Day 2 Challenge,The Crazy Challenge Halloween, Paper Sundaes Halloween or Fall, The Sparkles Forum Halloween and Desert Islands Crafters using 1, 3 (orange at the moment), 5, 6 and 7 (the fence looks like stripes to me).

A Haunting We Will Go (Making a Scene for Macabre Monday)

This week at Haunted Design House we're "making a scene" with the help of some fabulous images from this week's sponsor, Make it Crafty. Here's an opportunity to do some serious coloring! Mine was with Copics, of course. I had a ball making a shadow box card using the Haunted Halloween House as the back drop. The window frames were cut with my Nesties Grand Labels One.

Looking on is the adorable Mini Frankenstein. He's available on his own, or part of the MonztaBoyz collection. Trust me, you'll want them ALL! He was a bit of a challenge to fussy cut, but I managed with my trusty Exacto knife.

The little diva is Mini Morticia. And yup, she's got some gal pals too in the MonztaGalz collection. Don't they make a cute couple?

I've completed the scene by using a variety of MS punches including Spooky Fence, Spider Web, Graveyard and Drippy Goo, and popped them from the window frames for added depth. I've used Alpha Beads to spell out my title and some music note brads so you can all be singing this little song all day. HeeHee! If you'd love to sin some Make It Crafty images of your own, bop by Haunted Design House and grab some additional mojo from the Minions and come on and play along. I'm also entering this in the Corrosive Challenge Blog Punches and Dies challengeand the Paper Sundaes Anything Goes challenge

Tiddly Inks is Sponsoring Paper Sundaes!

Hey guys! Besides this week's fabulous regular Kraft With Me Challenge at the Tiddly Inks Challenge blog, Christy is also sponsoring Paper Sundaes and the challenge there this week is STRIPES! That gives you 2 different opportunities to win some of the adorable TI images. This sweet baby card features Good Luck (could it be any cuter?). The layout is pretty simple with DP from my stash, the Fiskars Threading Water punch and some adorable ladybug peelies from Stampendous I got at my local LSS. The rub-on sentiment is Melissa Frances.

I had a ball making the panda 3D by printing her out 5 times, fussy cutting and popping the layers for a decoupage effect. Her nose and ladybug friend have a bit of shine from Glossy Accents. The base image is cut with Nesties and backed with stretchy trim from WalMart. I tied the triple bow with my Bow Easy and of course added pearls. Be sure to check out all of the inspiration from the Tiddly Inkers and the Paper Sundaes gals, and stop back by the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog tomorrow for Fabulous Inky Friday. And guess what! Saturday Christy will be releasing the new "Gothic Pinups" at the Tiddly Inks Store and on her BLOG. WooHoo!
