SU252 SU! Owl Ghost

My daughter asked if I could help 17, grade 2 students make a Halloween card for their art class.  I am given about a half hour to do this.  Yikes!  Had to come up with something pretty simple and quick!  Mixed a couple ideas from Pinterest and came up with this.

My daughter and grandsons helped me do some of the prep work a couple days earlier.

Double checking the list to make sure I didn’t forget anything!

I did want them to see the Cuttlebug in action so I packed up the machine and the pre cut 3.25” x 1” scraps of black cardstock. They stamped the image and I punched it out.  The ghost and greeting has a mount on the back.

What a hoot we had!  Thanks for having me guys!

Paper: Black, Only Orange, White.

Stamps: Mixed Medley.

Ink: Black.

Accessories: Spider Web EF, glue, Decorative Dots EF, cuttlebug machine, mounts.

Punches: Owl Builder – eyes, nose and heart are all from the Owl Builder, circle scallop.

Card SU243 With Sympathy Grunge

Love this Gorgeous Grunge stamp set!  If you look closer, you will notice a faint inked image of the Honeycomb embossing folder in the background.  I spotted this on someone else’s blog but I now cannot find it!  To do it, simply ink the raised side of the embossing folder, put your card on top of the inked side and close the flap.  Now, rub gently with your hand and there it is!  Too cool!
