Frankly... SugarPea Super Guest Designer Final Post

Well today is my last guest designer post for SugarPea Designs and I just want to say a big Thank You to them for having me for the past three months, and for all of you for taking the time to read my posts.



This is really just to say that Frankly....... I think you are awesome! Don't you just love Frank?? I love Frank.... He's one of my favourite ever SPD characters. He's not at all scary and I feel he just needs a hug. He's from last year's Monster Mash set.

I stamped him and the sentiment on some scrap green cardstock with VersaMark ink and used some Wow! Bright White Embossing Powder for contrast. No colouring today! I then just fussy cut him and trimmed the sentiment panel with my guillotine.

You know how much I love patterned paper? I also love making my own and with a green and orange ink, I stamped away on a white card blank to create my random pattern. I used the adorable bats and pumpkins from the recent Darling Dragons set. It's a great way to use those tiny stamps you get in sets.



All I then did was pop Frank and the sentiment up with some foam pads and as the Mummy would say 'That's a wrap!'

Thank you to Wendy, Stephanie and everyone at SPD for having me. That's All Folks!

Happy Hallowe'en

I generally don't make Hallowe'en cards, but just before we moved house, this super cute set came out from Sugar Pea Designs and I couldn't resist. I've made 5 cards with it, but I'm showing you these three.





I Copic coloured all the images and fussy cut them out. I just had to have this set when I saw that cheery looking Dracula - I mean, he's not that cheery in the films unless he's just eaten. What a guy!

The backgrounds for Frankenstein and the Mummy are made with a new stamp set (I'll have a haul and craft room tour in one coming up on my YouTube channel soon!) from Uniko. I have ordered from them before, but I met them at the last stamp show I went to in Doncaster a couple of weeks ago and they are so lovely and had some new things I couldn't resist. With Frank I used some LilyPad Ranger ink and I heat embossed Mummy with WOW! White Bright EP.

With Count (remember Count Duckula? I loved that show!) I masked off a rectangle on the front of a red card base and splattered on white gouache, red and clear sparkle pen. I adhered all of them with foam tape and just added a simple sentiment at the bottom.




Thank you so much for taking the time to visit me today. Hope you have a very Spooky Hallowe'en and happy crafting!

*** Apologies for those of you who subscribe and saw I'd linked this up to a challenge. I hadn't realised it had closed on Sunday, so I've reedited it and am sharing the cards anyway! So out of the loop!!***
