Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!
This month, the theme is “All Creatures Great and Small.” We hope to inspire you with our creations today! You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
This little creature is a guinea pig, nicknamed “Tot,” for “trick or treat.” Halloween is his favorite day of the year, as you can probably guess. He was easy to create with his Hearts & Hugs Stamp, Memento Black Ink, Basic White Cardstock, and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. He said he blushes easily, so I used Petal Pink for his cheeks. Then, the really fun part was using his Hearts & Hugs Die for cutting, and placing him on Dimensionals.
Tot’s background is Basic White Cardstock, 3 5/8″ X 4 7/8″, splattered with black dots from a Stampin’ Blend, and a center of Petal Pink Ink, applied with a Blending Brush. He said I HAD to give him some pumpkins, so I stamped the Playful Ghosts pumpkins in Memento Black Ink, and colored them with a Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blend. This layer was glued to Basic Black Cardstock, 3 3/4″ X 5″, which was glued to a Gorgeous Grape card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Tot realized he wasn’t very scary looking, so he asked for a sign that said “BOO!” I stamped “BOO!” from the Playful Ghosts Stamp Set, in Memento Black Ink, and used a Sending Love Die for cutting. The stick holding the sign was created with the “i” from the Alphabet a la Mode Die Set, cut from Basic Black Cardstock. Tot is very happy now, and can’t wait for October 31st!
There’s more inspiration to show you, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. We hope you will come back for our blog hop next month, when our theme will be “Orange Theory.”
Until then, have fun in your craft space.
