Spooky Have a Hoot

Yes, I know. Halloween is long over and we are looking forward to the new year. Well, I'm pretty behind in creating blog posts so you are getting Halloween! Besides, who is all caught up on their scrapbooking? I don't even want to discuss how far behind I am in this area!

I used Have a Hoot stamp set and Peek a Hoot dies to create this set of scrapbook pages.


The alphabet dies are the retired Hand-Lettered Prose Dies. I keep the alphabet dies because I love using them on my pages. You never know when you want that alphabet! I covered the letters and the spider webs with Wink of Stella so that they would sparkle and glisten.

I stamped the strips on the Pumpkin Pie strips with Pattern Play and the hinge stamping technique. Hinge stamping uses your Stamparatus and moving the stamp down a hinge each time you stamp it to keep them all spaced beautifully. Let me know if you want more information about this. I would be happy to show you!


I water colored each of the owls with my Water Painters and ink pads. I love the gauzy ribbon on these pages too. It helps add to the mystery of Halloween. Now to find some pictures to add to these pages!

Happy Stampin'!

Merry Moose 2

Merry Moose has been such a favorite of mine for the last two Christmases. I think he is so stinkin' cute! 

The card base is Garden Green and the plaid and layer is Pretty Peacock. I did fussy cut the scarf for Mr. Moose.


I did a Facebook live show how to create this background. It's really quite simple. You can watch that video HERE if you would like. To create this background I inked up the embossing folder then ran the cardstock through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine to transfer the ink to the cardstock. The raccoon and log are water colored.


This card uses the kissing technique. I did a Facebook Live on this technique too! You can watch that HERE. I used the solid image of the moose and inked it up with Crumb Cake and then I stamped off the moose so the ink wasn't so intense. Then I inked up the solid trees from Mountain Air and stamped them on the moose image or kissed the images. Then I finally stamped the moose and punched him out. Kissing works great with solid images and a pattern for the other stamp. The ribbon is colored with Mossy Meadow blend.


I hope you got Merry Moose for yourself. I don't think you will regret this wonderful stamp set and punch being part of your collection.

Happy Stampin'!
