If you have arrived for today's FESTIVE FRIDAY Bloghop...please CLICK HERE.
Welcome to Day Six of the Viva Las VegaStamps! Design Team's Halloween party that goes everyday through TOMORROW. There is a prize for those who leave comments on every post, every day on each stop of the hop, too...so you still have one day to get caught up! I will giveaway a fabulous blog candy prize at the end of the hop drawn from all new followers of my blog.
We've got a full week of HALLOWEEN inspiration, blogs, prizes, contests and - each day will feature a different way to be entered to win a prize. So plan to drop by every day for your chance to win.
You may not know this {unless you are one of my loyal followers} - but I have been creating at least one Christmas card every week since last Christmas. This is a challenge from my Unscripted Sketches team. Today is also Festive Friday, and I couldn't resist bringing a little Christmas into the Halloween fun!
I've been so inspired by our Design Team Leader, DeeDee's monochromatic tags, so I wanted to give this a try. I stamped my scene and my elf on kraft cardstock in black dye ink. The sleeping elf is fussy cut and tinted with Ranger Distress markers applied with a waterbrush. I also used my water brush to dilute the picket fence distress marker to give a whitewash cast to the moon.
This Elf has Escaped from the Workshop for a Nap!
