Halloween Cards

I saw these cards on Dawn's blog and have been wanting to make them ever since.

I made one card each for the kids that came to Oliver's Halloween party. Purple for the boys & pink for the girls (of course).

They are very simple and easy to make as long as you have the punches and a pair of scissors.  Easy peasy. 

Here is the girl version up close.  I wanted to put eye lashes on her but forgot to so I hope the pink hair was enough to make her girly. 

Here is the boy version!

They were a hit with the kids so that was good and even the mum's and dad's were impressed.  LOL

Happy Stamping,

Supplies
Paper:Old Olive, Pixie Pink, Orchid Opulence, Whisper White.

Halloween

I finally got around to getting the photos off the camera from Halloween -albeit a bit late!

Oh, look who it is!  It is Pirate Oliver!  LOL  The sleeves were a bit too long but he wanted to wear it.  He was really excited to be having a party and I wasn't sure he would dress up, but he did and had a ball with the other kids who also dressed up.  Can you believe that after taking these photos, we didn't get the camera out again to take anymore. 

So here is my spider cake.  What do you think?  Not bad for my first attempt at making a novelty cake.  I couldn't find the right sweets for the teeth so I had to improvise.

This is Rob's attempt at making a mushroom.  The top bit is what I cut off the bottom part of the spiderweb cake.  He didn't want to ice the whole thing so he just used the left over icing from me to make it look more like a mushroom.  He got a plastic cup and covered it in brown paper and coloured the red dots on it.  He was very pleased with himself!  LOL

I hope you all had a great Halloween if you celebrated it.

Happy Halloween!

I really have to get a new light to take photos with!! Anyway, this is my little fun card for Halloween. We don't really celebrate it here in the UK but I am sure that the children in our street will be out and about tonight. As I do not have any Halloween stamps (I might have to buy some from Papertrey Ink), I got on the computer and used some from clipart.


My bat is flying but you can not see it from the top photo. Hope you have a great Halloween (if you celebrate it).
