Last of the Litter

This is the last of the litter on Halloween cards for this year - THANK GOODNESS!  I have enough to send all the grand kiddoes (plus a few more) so I'm done for the year.


On my first card I used a Stampabilities cat.  Was really wishing I'd had some black embossing powder but don't have any right now.  I tried doing the Versa Mark and then black and then clear embossing but it just doesn't look good.  I sponged the sky ( I know, MORE clouds - what can I say)  in some gray and added several rhinestones under the sentiment.  This was my first attempt at sponging a "moon" and it looks more like a big ole sun instead....but I'm working on it!


The second card features the Zombie Bunny from Hambo.  This is for their progressive challenge - a sketch  this week.  If you didn't play along and get this image free, you can always go to the store and grab it.  Be sure and check out the sketch at Hambo Hoedown and play along this week using any Hambo image.  That background paper didn't photograph like I wanted it too.  It's actually a very pretty orange but looks a little washed out in the photo. 

***My "Funny Friday" card will be on Wednesday this week - yep, like day after tomorrow....So be sure and stay tuned.  But be WARNED~You'll crack up laughing***

Thanks for stopping by...............

I think your kitty card is just perfect, the clouds are great as they fade and love that big ole Harvest Moon. Kitty looks like my Noel when Lucky scares her :) Love Zombie bunny, he would scare me into more candy. Can't wait for your Funny Wednesday :)

Both sooo cute. The cat looks perfect the way it is. And the clouds look great as well. And what I love most is the fence - so REAl looking. Don't worry about the moon - it is such a CAS card. Very elegant for Halloween.

The second card is funny and the sentiment is so witty. Love the DP.

Love both the cards Lynn. I thought the first card was a moon right off and your clouds look amazing. The zombie bunny is so cute too (love the way you colored his jacket).

Lynn, These are two great cards. And I think you did a terrific job sponging the moon. I absolutely love the font for that sentiment on your first card. It is kind of spooky in a cute way. Your second card just made me smile. Thanks for sharing both of these cute cards. Enjoy your day.

LOL - love the sentiment on card #2!! too funny!

I think the moon looks great and so does the cat on the 1st card! The bling gives it just a bit more too!!!

Nice work :)

Love the gray sky card! Beautiful orange moon and cute kitty image.

Both cards are great, Lynn, but I have to say that Zombie Bunny is just too funny! He looks like he may have nipped a bit too much from the moonshine jug. :-D I not only got Halloween cards finished for all the grands, I actually mailed them today! Plus two more family birthdays, and that does it for October! I'm so glad to start on Thanksgiving, now. Looking forward to Funny Friday on Wednesday.

Melissa said...
