31 Days of Halloween Day 10 - Welcome to the Crypt

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

 

Hello Portal Peeps!!  Gail here for Day 10 of our 31 Days of Halloween extravaganza.

Today I'm using Cartoon Racoon.  He's new, and a real cutie, but I've spooked him up in Halloween style and he's waiting to welcome you to his mausoleum bwahhhaaaaaa!

I used Lost Coast Designs Cartoon Racoon, Large Tigger Shrine and Large Shrubbery Background with Carmen's Veranda When Witches Go Riding sentiment.

 

I made the background by stamping the Tigger Shrine with grey ink, masking and stamping Shrubbery Background both sides with black ink.  I gave the background a watercolour wash with blue and mauve distress inks.  Then I stamped the top of the goth shrine, fussy cut it and added it to the Tigger Shrine.

 I stamped Cartoon Racoon, coloured with distress markers and gel pens and fussy cut him.  I added him to the stamped panel and to finish stamped the last line of the Witches Go Riding sentiment on the lintel.

Submit your stamped anythings with a Halloween theme to the linky party by 23.59 PST on the 31st and don't forget to follow us so you don't miss anything!  The team will be posting more inspiration throughout the month so check back and join the fun.

31 Days of Halloween Day 9: Psycho Scream

Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!

Hi all, Aimee here. How old were you when you first watched Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho? Here's a little homage to the movie that has made many afraid of taking a shower:

I used the Screaming Woman stamp from Carmen's Veranda, a Brush Strokes stamp from Lost Coast Designs, and a haunted house sticker purchased at a craft store. I tried the "ice" embossing technique to create this final look:

Hello Portal Peeps!!!   Gail here again for Day 8 of our 31 Days of Halloween extravaganza.

Today was a happy mail day when some of the brand new stamps from Lost Coast Designs dropped into the mail box.  Have you spotted them??   They are gorgeous and I quickly inked up Cartoon Man and made him spooky!!!

Here he is, out in the woods.  I used Lost Coast Designs Tall Trees Background stamped on a white panel.  Then I stamped ATC Perspective on brown card with grey ink and fussy cut it.  I used a circle of stamp cushion to stamp the yellow sun/moon using archival ink.  I stamped Cartoon Man and the head of the large Dancing Skeleton on white card and fussy cut them.  I coloured the man with distress markers and used a black marker to colour in his eyes and a tiny dot of white gel pen.

An easy card today. The background was stamped using the spiderweb background stamp

and VersaFine Black ink. I stamped the Dracula image and then colored it with Derwent Chromaflow pencils. I added eyes to the bats using red Stickles. And I applied Diamond Stickles to the "Happy Halloween" die-cut. Everything was attached using foam tape.

Take a look at Carri's Monsters stamps, they are so much fun.
