This was a lot of fun to do!
The challenge at Saturday Spotlight was to make a Halloween card, but to not use any Halloween stamps!
Well, I happened to have this new set, Merriest Wishes, from TAC that kept jumping off of my shelf, wanting to be inked.
Who am I to put a set of stamps back on the shelf and tell them 'no'?
So, out came this adorable snowperson stamp, and the following card was born!
What's in it??? K & Co. DP, Computer generated sentiment, Large Nesties, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Tombow Markers, Sharpies, Ribbon and button from my stash, DCWV CS, Sakura Starburst Glitter Pen.
She is entirely colored with either Tombow or Sharpies, except for her paper pieced "coat".
Hope your Friday is wonderful. It is STILL raining here, dark and dreary, Cardinal's got slammed by the Dodger's again, but otherwise...life is good!
Blessings...Patti J.

WOW ... what a "cool" idea dressing up a snowman for Halloween! Great job! Thanks for joining us at Saturday Spotlight. I look forward to seeing more of your creations in the upcoming weeks!
ReplyDeleteI lvoe how you turned this into Halloween!
ReplyDeleteHow fun is this?! Very creative!
ReplyDeleteHalloween is all about dressing up and who says you can't dress up like a snowman? Great creation, and fabulous job thinking outside the box.
ReplyDeleteAs for those Cards, I was rooting for them the other night when it all went downhill with one out to go. Hope they can turn it around at home, I'm not big on Manny and the Dodgers!
Too CUTE! What an adorable Halloween vest!
ReplyDeletePatti this is awesome!!! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteOh Patti - AWESOME job!! You nailed this challenge perfectly. LOVE how you colored the snowman and what a perfect sentiment for the image. Super duper job!!
ReplyDeleteIs that a clown, a chicken or a snowman? Or perhaps all three? Whatever it is, it's adorable!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about the Dodgers trouncing your birds. We (I should say, the boys and I) are fans of the D-backs and Boston, so it would have been okay to see the Cardinals win. In fact, we like the Cardinals. Paul is the only one excited about the Angels and Dodgers. Of course, everyone would like to see a freeway series, but it's not likely to happen. I think the Angels are going get hammered by the Yankees (we're NOT Yankees fans and will definitely root for the home team). I suppose we'll root for the Dodgers, too. Gotta try to have some loyalty to the locals!
