Another "home" card - a haunted home, that is!

Here's my second card for the "home" themed challenge sponsored by Catherine Pooler in celebration of her new blog.  Another way to use the "home" theme is to incorporate items that start with the letter H-O-M-E.  For this card, I used Halloween, Orange, Monster, and Embossing. And for a double home theme, there's a haunted house in the background because even monsters need a home, right?  :)

 

The haunted house was diecut with my Cricut and the Artbooking cartridge.  The pumpkin, monster, test tube and greeting are all Paper Smooches stamps.  I added some little touches of clear Wink of Stella pen for some shimmer, and some google eyes to the pumpkin and monster.

Warm holiday wishes

I made this card as part of the "homecoming" celebration going on at Catherine Pooler's blog.  Catherine is the owner of StampNation, a SU representative and pretty much an expert on rubber stamping!  She just gave her blog a completely new look, and to celebrate, she is hosting a challenge to create a card with a "home" theme. 

The stamps used on this card are from Hero Arts (house and tree) and Mama Elephant (sentiment).  The house was stamped, then masked off so the trees could be stamped behind the house a little bit.  The image was colored with Copic markers and then I added some Stickles for a little bit of snowy shimmer.
