Cookie Cutter Halloween for What Will You Stamp?

Happy Fall Y'All.   Who doesn't love fall with the leaves changing their colors and the crunch of them under your feet while walking.  Fall here in Florida is a little different...first you have a little thing like Hurricane Matthew churning up the coast which causes giant limbs (sometimes whole trees) to fall and then you get to watch all the green leaves turn brown as they sit along the side of the road for yard waste pickup.  

For the What Will You Stamp? challenge I chose to make my fall card with a fun, brightly colored scarecrow to help me forget about all the limbs in my backyard that still need to be chopped up and dragged to the curb.  This little scarecrow is stinkin' cute and he's such a happy little guy that I don't think he is going to scare many crows away.  lol


Cookie Cutter Halloween is such a great set which can be used for scrapbook pages and treat holder decorations as well as cards.  Aren't these images the cutest??? and there is a matching punch to make things so easy.

I know the Design Team at WWYS is going to be sharing some great projects for Halloween and Fall so make sure you head back there to check it out.

I used the following products to create my card:

Spooky Fun for What Will You Stamp?

Good Morning and welcome to another weekly challenge for What Will You Stamp?  The challenge set is Spooky Fun which just happens to be my favorite Halloween set in the Holiday Catalog.  The Spooky Fun stamp set and the Halloween Scenes Edgelits Dies can be purchased as a Bundle which gives you an automatic discount of 10% off the price.

This first card has my wicked witch flying thru the sky on her broom silhouetted by the autumn moon.  She is flying among the Wink of Stella stars and low over the gnarly old tree and fenced in cemetery.  This is the first slider card I have ever made and I love how it turned out and had so much fun making it that I know I'll be making more of them.

My second project is a framed piece very similar to the slider card but with a larger autumn moon and a few bats joining the witch on her flight.

Don't you just love this stamp set.  That trio of pumpkins is just the cutest.  There is also a trio of witches...one that can be colored in, one that is a skinny silhouette and the die cut witch.  Which witch will you choose?

I can't wait to see what the other Design Team members are going to make with this stamp set and die bundle.  If you want to see too just head back to WWYS.  If you have this stamp set why not play along with us and maybe you will win a chance to be a Guest Designer on an upcoming challenge.

I used the following products for my projects today:

Ghoulish Grunge for What Will You Stamp?

This week's challenge set for What Will You Stamp? is Ghoulish Grunge.  Looking at my card you are probably wondering "Where's the Grunge".  The answer is that the Grunge is on all the mats.  I used the gauze stamp and Versarmark ink on Whisper White and Basic Black cardstock and heat embossed with our new Copper Embossing Powder.   

I almost forgot to mention that the cute little pumpkin stamp came from the September Paper Pumpkin kit.  Paper Pumpkin is a fabulous box that arrives at your door on a monthly basis.  It contains everything you need to create...stamps, ink, cardstock, and embellishments. This month it came with plastic tubes and cork stoppers that can be decorated and filled for the trick or treaters in your life.  How awesome is that!!!  

Here's a closeup of the mats so you can see all the texture.


Ghoulish Grunge can be used for things other than Halloween...don't you agree 

I wonder what the rest of the Design Team has created over at WWYS?  Don't forget to check it out.  If you have this stamp set why not play along with us.  Post your project to the blog and you could win a chance to be a Guest Designer.

I used the following products on my card:
