Here is another cute card to add to the sickly sweetness of Halloween. The image was too damn cute to pass up. I got these Little Lovins kiddos from Stamp Oasis at Rubberneckers, along with the tree and headstone images. I cut 'em apart to make the little scene.
I colored everyone (so much fun!) in with Copics and popped 'em up on pop dots for dimension.
I usually prefer for my Halloween creations to be more on the creepy side as opposed to the cutsie stuff. That being said, when I saw this cute little guy at Hambo I just had to have him. I saw Mackenzie use this image on her blog with a great emboss resist technique. I LOVE this technique. It lends such a professional finish to the image and the project .
I really like to color backgrounds using those fingertip sponge applicators and inks from SU. I like the control they give me and the texture is nice for a soft blended look. I embossed some swirl images with Red Dragon Stampin' Stuff embossing powder, and used a Cuttlebug folder to emboss the swirls on the cardstock.
My best friend, we'll call her "Curse", has a very strong aversion to clowns. So, needless to say, I go out of my way whenever possible to make the most atrocious clown cards for her. Here is my latest attempt at making her ill. 
Great movie. I've seen it multiple times. Nothing like old B-horror movies to kick off the season!
I am really diggin' this image. Don't remember where it's from, but I LOVE it! I got it unmounted from somewhere (Viva Las Vegas maybe?) I really like the vintage style. 
I inked her onto white card stock and then sponged the color on it to look antique. I think it worked. I just kept this one simple with the image and some prism embossed swirls in the background.
Went to Michael's the other day and had to have these paper mache skulls (I got 4 of 'em!) and these wooden coffin boxes(4 more of those too!). I had such a blast painting them with the intention of possibly giving a few away. That idea passed and I have decorated my mantle with them for the time being (until I get the arsenal of loot out). LOVE them, and keeping them all!
I painted the skulls and coffins with acrylic paints(some mixed with glitter or mica powders), sanded them and dry brushed the coffins with GID paint and black paint for dimension. I used the heck out of Stickles for the glittery decoration on the coffins. I used Martha Stewart glitter for the skulls. She has the greatest Glow-in-the-Dark glitter EVER made! It is the "schiz-nit" of GID products.
I like the way the fingerprints turned out. I just used my own little digits and some Real Red ink from SU. The stickles didn't photograph well, but they look better in person.
One of my all-time favorite horror films is the original "Dracula" with Bela Lugosi. I always recite certain lines from the film everytime I watch it. "Listen to them, the children of the night. What beautiful music they make". LOVE it! I can't remember for the life of me where I got this stamp (Kenzie?), but he is so fun! He reminds me of "Renfield", from Dracula with the flies and all.
