Vintage Halloween


 Hello!  I was so excited to be able to catch the Simon Says Stamp Stamptember Brutus Monroe collaboration.  I love pretty much anything Halloween, but I have a special spot for anything vintage.  This set hit my heart.  I love the cat and reindeer mugs in this set.

I colored this two different ways because I wasn't sure which one I would like better - a completely green mug or one with a black handle and background.  I definitely wanted to color the cat green though.  

The coloring was done with Copic markers in the following colors:

  • R59, R39, R29
  • Y17, Y19, Y38
  • G20, YG11, YG45, G43,BG96
  • C0, C2, C4, C5, C7, C10


The sentiment, which is just perfect for this card, is from Trinity Stamps.  It is from the Simply Sentimental: Halloween stamp set.  It was heat embossed using black embossing powder.

In keeping with the vintage look, I used paper from Carta Bella's Hocus Pocus paper.  As I was digging around looking for ribbon, lace or twine, I came across the black fringe by Tim Holtz.  It was just perfect!

I love the way these cards turned out.  Hopefully you were able to get the stamp set to play with also.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have an incredible day!!!
