It's a Halloween release at Colorado Craft Company!

 


Hello there!

I'm thrilled to be participating in this month's new release blog hop with Colorado Craft Company. There are so many great Halloween images in this release including a new Lovely Legs witch, two new Big and Bold stamp sets, and five sets from Anita Jeram that all include new, never seen anywhere else before, brand spankin' new images... along with coordinating dies for each! To celebrate this release 3C is giving away a new stamp set from each stop on the hop, so the more you comment the more chances you have to win. Entries will be accepted until midnight mountain time October 1st and winners will be randomly selected by 3C and announced on their blog the next day. They are also doing a HUGE complete bundle giveaway to ONE lucky winner. To be entered for that you have to use one of the designer's affiliate links when you place an order. Those links can be found on the 3C blog and will be included in one of their emails as well. In the mean time, here's the complete list of hop participants for you to check out:

I've got two cards to share today. The first features the new Lovely Legs Tombstone Witch set. This stylish witch and the tombstone are actually two separate stamps and I simply masked them together to make it look like she is leaning casually against that large stone marker. And just like last year's witch, I hand colored in some long flowing hair behind her because I like creating another opportunity for a bit more color in the scene. This time around she got pretty ginger hued locks to go with that electric green dress and indigo gloves. The rest of the scene stayed pretty dark and de-saturated so it looks like there is a spotlight of magic shining on her.    

For my second card I paired the new Big and Bold Scary Pumpkin set with the Pumpkin Bucket mini set from Anita Jeram. I also borrowed a couple of mice from two different older sets, Ever Thine and Birthday Wishing, and added the Halloween candy from the mini set to their paws so it looks like they are filling the baby mouse's candy bucket. It was a lot of fun coloring the pumpkin to make it look like there is a candle inside with the light spilling out and casting a warm glow on the little family of mice. :)

Ok, time to send you on your way. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the hop!
