We Create Halloween Blog Hop

I know I say this every month, but I cannot wrap my head around the fact that October has arrived! I didn't even know we were close to October! In many ways September flew by and it was also one of the longest months of my life.... but here we are! A new month and a new blog hop!

October always means Halloween to me, and while it isn't my favorite holiday, I do love the things that come with it, like pumpkin patches and baking with apples and cooler temperatures and falling leaves! Fall is my favorite time of year, and I wish it lasted longer!

Having said all that, as much as I do love the new Halloween products, I don't own them... So, I had to get creative with my Halloween project... I went more with the leaves idea and colors, and I made this, and I was really happy with it... 

Supplies:

Stamps: Lovely As A Tree

Ink: Memento Black, So Saffron, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze

Paper: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Whisper White & Daffodil Delight card stocks

Accessories: Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon, Twinkle Builder Punch, Sponges, Glue Dots

but then you know what?  I guess my brain turned on, haha... because you don't see stars and sunsets at the same time!! What was I thinking?!

So! I had to whip up another card!! Thaaat's exactly the kind of week I've been having, so hopefully this new Monday and new month go just a little bit calmer...! 

This card looks more like a spooky Halloween night to me, haha! Perfect for staying in with a fun Halloween movie! My personal favorite is It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown! 

Supplies:

Stamps: Lovely As A Tree

Ink: Memento Black, Pacific Point, Night of Navy, Fresh Fig, Blackberry Bliss

Paper: Night of Navy, Basic Black & Whisper White card stocks 

Accessories: Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon, Metallic Sequins, Glue Dots 

Also, these cards qualify for the Create Your Own Background challenge at TGIF Challenges! It's been a while since I sponged a background like this, or sponged anything really, but I love how both turned out!
