This little ghost is strolling through the pumpkin patch to wish you a Happy Halloween. The background is done with the double time technique using Mingle All The Way from the Holiday mini in White Craft ink. The ghost from Fall Fest is embossed with White embossing powder on Basic Black card stock and die cut using the matching dies. The pumpkins are stamped in Tangerine Tango on Whisper White card stock and die cut, along with a few leaves. More fun than spooky, but your trick or treaters will enjoy the fun look!

Happy October! One of the Creative Crew challenges at Splitcoast this month is a Halloween/Fall Focus. I did a Fry box created with the Motley Crew Designer Series paper and Ghoulish Greetings. The Fry Box die is one of the easiest dies out there – die cut, adhere on the sides and decorate. I embellished the sentiment with googlie eyes on the sides and decorated the polka dot cello bag with googlie eyes too.
Not much of a Halloween fan or need a Fall treat? I flipped the DSP so that the just the leaves on the trees were showing and made a Fall Fry box.
The sentiment is from Gratitude For Days and the embellishment on the top is 3 Autumn Wooden Embellishments colored with ink pads and glued together.
I hope you’ll take some time to hop over to the Creative Crew Gallery for October and see all the wonderful creations. Want to play along? Create a Halloween or Fall project and upload it using CCREW1014HF in the keyword section. Hugs, Fran
