HOLIDAY BLOG TOUR DAY 2 TWICK OR TWEET

I am so excited that we are able to present so many wonderful ideas from the new Holiday Mini catalog by SU! We at Remarkable Stampers have quite a bit of talent. Also...I'm giving away blog candy to some lucky winners who make comments on these posts. Post a comment daily and you will be entered into the grand prize. I've got some great prizes so it is worth it to comment.

Today, I chose the Halloween theme using Twick or Tweet. I love this set. It has some great stamps in it as you can see in each of the samples below. The only stamp in the set that I didn't use was the pumpkins stamp. If you view the holiday mini (see icon on right of blog) you will be able to see everything in this set and all of the sets in the mini. The sentiment is from grateful greetings.
This next card uses elegant eggplant as the card stock base. I love this new wide striped ribbon by SU! and had to use it on this card. Isn't this chick adorable with her mask? If you look closely I have embossed the white card stock with the Big Shot texturz plate that is a new one from the main idea book this year. The chick is embossed with crystal effects.
This next card uses the background stamp sanded in white craft ink on basic grey card stock. The gravestone and the raven is from the stamp set graveyard gala in the main idea book. I've used my favorite taffeta ribbon also.

ok, for more great ART from the Remarkable Stampers visit the next stop on the tour

  2. I loved your third card. It reminded me of Edward Gorey. The sanded paper was a perfect complement to the gravestone, and the purple raven was fun.
