Halloween Cuties Batty For You Card with Vanessa
Hi everybody! Vanessa here with a watercolor card using Halloween Cuties. I had some fun creating a watercolor sky and thought the cute bats would look great on it.
First I applied water to a panel of smooth watercolor paper and added pink, black, blue and turquoise watercolors to it. After it was dried, I stamped the sentiment and adhered the panel to my grey card base. Now I stamped the bats onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics and die-cut the images with the matching dies. Then I adhered the bats, using foam tape for more dimension, and bent their wings slightly up. Finally I added black enamel dots.
I hope you liked today's Halloween inspiration! Thank you so much for stopping by!

Halloween Cuties Hello Pumpkin Card with Lindsey
Hi Lindsey here today sharing a card using the awesome set, Halloween Cuties. I absolutely love Halloween and this set is so much fun to create with. For this card, I just had to use the little pumpkin cat. I just think that image is so precious. So let's get started on how to create this card.
I started out with a plaid A2 size card base. Then I cut a purple scalloped oval and a slightly smaller oval out of black cardstock. I stamped some stars and my sentiment on the black oval using a white dye ink. I used the same oval die to cut a partial green oval that I used for the grass.
I stamped my pumpkin and cat on white cardstock and colored the images using Copic markers. I then cut the images out using the coordinating dies. I popped the cat and pumpkin up on the grass using some foam tape and added a few white highlights with a gel pen.
Next, I attached the scalloped oval to the plaid card base using more foam tape to add even more dimension. To finish off the card, I added some Wink of Stella to the stars on the black oval and some sequins and stars to the card base. A little sparkle is always fun! That finishes this card.
Thanks for reading and I hope you'll check out this fun set! It would be a great set to use to make some Halloween tags for goodie bags. Keep checking back to the blog for more inspiration using this set. Have a great day!

Halloween Cuties: Batty For You with Anni
Hey stampers, Anni here! Are you ready for Halloween Cards? Well, I have one for you today. I used the very cute bats from the set Halloween Cuties for this card.
First I created the rainbow background. I used a piece of water color paper and added some water on it in a shape I wanted for my background. On my craft mat I dropped a tiny bit of Distress Ink reinker in yellow, orange, red, turqoise and green. I dipped a brush into the color and then into the water and then let the water do the work. When I liked how it turned out I dried it with my heat gun. After that I added some splashes of watered down color to the paper.
I stamped, colored the bats with Copics and fussy cut them (there are coordinating dies available). I drew over the eyes with a black gel pen to make them extra black and added some Wink of Stella to the wings.
I stamped the sentiment directly on the watercolor paper with my MISTI and assembled the card. To finish the card I added some star sequins.
Thanks for stopping by and have a sunny week!

Halloween Cuties Hello Pumpkin Halloween Card with Eloise
Hello everyone, Eloise here and I'm back here today to feature the new Halloween Cuties stamps and die set. I don't celebrate Halloween, but I love Halloween stamps. They're so fun and I love the colour scheme for Halloween too! So I made a fun scene card today (of course!) and it's inside an oval for something a little different.
To begin my card today I started off with stamping all my images on some Neenah Solar White Cardstock with some Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used various colours of Copic Markers to colour in my images today. Once they were coloured, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I now moved onto my background. I used Distress Inks for my background, as usual and I picked out a purple, pink and orange for the sky and a green for the grass. I used watercolour paper to ink blend onto since I find I get a better blend. Once all the colours were blended I used a paint brush and some water to do my favourite water splotch effect on the background - I love how this looks with Distress Inks!
Once that was done I took some green cardstock from my stash and used an oval die to die cut out of it. I wanted the used the oval as a frame. Before assembling the card I white heat embossed the sentiment 'hey pumpkin' onto the background. I assembled my card using a mixture of foam adhesive and liquid adhesive and then for a finishing touch I used my Wink of Stella to add some shimmer.
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you got inspired to make some Halloween cards!
