Monthly Madness Sept. 2023!

Hello!  I know I am a bit late this month, but I think it is worth the wait.  I hope you do too!  This month's theme. is Halloween which is a favorite of mine with all the cute images and of course, fun puns!  No changes in the kits, still 10 card kits + bonus card made by me, for $35 ($30 + $5 shipping).  Let me show you the cards ... enjoy!

The first one took quite a while to figure out, taking an idea in my head to paper.  I played with the idea for more hours than I would like to admit, and several times I tried to talk myself out of it, and make some other kind of interactive card, but I just could not stop thinking about it.  I am glad I did not give it up, because it is a great card.  It is a surprise double slider card.  

Front ...


I am not sure it shows up, but I embossed the cauldron with black and iridescent embossing powder.  Yes, I will be embossing yours for the kit.  But, there might be some fussy cutting in your future.  I can do this step for you, if you will let me know.  Now, do you see the tiny "pull"?  This is how it looks when you do that ...


Cauldron raises and witch comes out!  So fun!  
I made this card open vertically.  Here is the inside ...


Next, one is very simple with not a lot of coloring.  I used this stamp set last year, but when I saw the cute paper, I had to stamp the set again!  


 

Next, is also a stamp I have used before, but it has been a few years.  Love how this one came out!



One of the papers I ordered had all kinds of candy treats printed on it, so pairing that paper with a vampire?  Might be a surprise, but the sentiment ties it all together.  

 One note, the scallop border is a dark purple and his cape is gray with a light green sleeve to match the paper.  I could not get this to scan right on my printer.  


Here is one, with no coloring, great for a quick card for you!


And lastly, my bonus card ...



And there you have it, Halloween card kit!  Since it is only 2 weeks before they will go in the mail, if you are one that does not already get a kit every month, make sure you tell me right away so you will not be left out!

Happy Stamping!
Tina
