Hi everyone! It’s Rosie and I am sharing a few Halloween Cards highlighting the Trick or Treat Puppy Stamp Set. I always color the puppies a tan color to resemble my dog, Salem. He is always up for doing tricks for treats! I stamped, colored and die cut all the puppies twice. This left with lots of little puppy dogs to create with. Then I pulled out my Minc machine and used holographic foil with the spider web print from the Spooky Halloween Toner Card Fronts. I also used the negative foil on a solid black toner card front. I really loved the foil backgrounds and didn't want to cover much of it up so I pulled out the Framework Die Set and Flames & Flags Die Set. I cut one of the inside scallop dies from black cardstock and matted that on heavy-weight vellum. Then I die cut another vellum piece from a stitched rounded rectangle die. These two die sets are by far, my most used die sets. 

I white heat embossed the two sentiments on black cardstock and then also stamped on white cardstock. I wasn't sure of my design so I just stamped both. Then I layered everything together and used the same die set to die cut the sentiments. Since I used vellum, I used a tape runner and foam tape to adhere everything together. 

Bonus Card: 

It wouldn't be a Rosie post without a bonus card! For this card I ink blended a background panel using a few pink/purple/blue Reactive Inks. I splattered with a shimmer spray and white acrylic to look like a night sky. I die cut the Spooky Sky Die Set and ink blended for dimension. I also die cut the Haunted House Die Set and added vellum behind the windows and popped it up with thin foam tape. I fussy cut the clack cardstock hill for the house to sit on. I white heat embossed the sentiment directly on the ink blended panel. Everything was layered together and I finished the card with two cute Trick or Treat puppies.
