The Greeting Farm - Let's Spook

Hi everyone, Jo here. Let's create a fun and festive Halloween card today. Here I am using one of my newest favorite stamp set BOO paired with Halloween Nite Digi SetPorch Digi Set and Miss Anya All Year (Limited Edition Set). This is a wonderful mix of clear stamps and digital stamps all in one card.

All the images are either colored with Copic Markers or Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, I couldn't decide which medium to use. The background starts with the door and coordinating door mat from the Porch Digi Set. I colored in some "siding" and ground for the house with Copic Markers.

The pumpkins, hay bale and the witch's cauldron is from the Halloween Nite Digi Set. I printed the images out, fussy cut them and adhered them to the card to create the front porch decorations. Miss Anya All Year is a Limited Edition Stamp Set that includes various Anyas representing the multiple calendar celebrations.

Lastly, the ghosts, bat, leaves and the sentiment are from the Boo Stamp Set. The bat garland across the front door was created by one image.

Hi everyone, Jo here. I can't get enough of the newest release, how about you? Today's card features the BOO and Hey Teacher Clear Stamp Sets. Does your kid's school celebrate Halloween? Here is a funtastic school Halloween themed card.

All the images are either colored with Copic Markers or Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I die cut a little oval shaped window on some Halloween designer paper. The adorable ghosts are floating around the perimeter. The "BOO" sentiment is cut using alpha dies.

Anya is fussy cut out and surrounded by pumpkins, ghosts, bats and her books. She looks adorable in her festive holiday outfit.
