Leave a Little SPOOKY Wherever You Go {Handmade Halloween Cards with Lil' Inker}

 Welcome to Day 2 of the Lil' Inker Designs Halloween Blog Hop! There are a few spooktacular new goodies in the store and I'm excited to share them with you today! For both of today's cards, I paired the new goodies with some older Halloween products plus I added a completely NON-Halloween stamp set just to get crazy! Let's take a look at today's Halloween cards:

First up, is this witchy card featuring the Spooky Script Die as well as the Bats & Broomsticks Dies. But for a fun mix-and-match twist, I've also used the Sassy Girl Stamps on both of today's cards.
The original sentiment says "Leave a little sparkle wherever you go" but I stamped the sentiment in two sections and mixed it up with the die-cut word, SPOOKY. Super fun right?

TIP: One of the biggest perks of clear stamps is that you can SEE where you're stamping, but you can also SEE what you're inking. Ink the first part of the sentiment and stamp on cardstock. Clean off the stamp, and then ink the end of the sentiment.
This card  is a great example of using non-holiday products for holiday cards. To begin, I used the Stitched Mats: Circles to make my happy little patch of pumpkins. TIP: Trim a thin piece of brown cardstock to make the stems!  

I stamped the faces from the Boo and Faces stamps. Another non-Halloween product is the Fall Foliage dies that I used to cut out greenery for my pumpkin patch. I had a scrap of Gel Press printed and stenciled cardstock that was perfect for die-cutting the greenery from. And again, I used the Sassy Girl stamp set just as I did above, to make a Halloween-birthday sentiment. (Surprisingly, I know FOUR people who have a Halloween birthday!!! Isn't that fun and crazy!?) 
Thanks so much for coming by today. I hope you'll stop by all of the designers' blogs and enjoy their BOO-tiful crafty projects - this is day 2 of our 2-day hop so be sure to check back to yesterday's posts if you missed them and comment along the way so you're eligible to WIN all three of the SPOOKY word dies plus the Bats & Broomsticks Dies.
