31 Days of Halloween Day 15 - Hooray for Halloween!

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!

Hooray for Halloween! Aimee here with this joyful creation. I love the feeling of action this Day of the Dead Man stamp evokes. He reminds me of a little kid on Halloween night running out the front door of his house to collect a bag full of candy. 

This running skeleton is actually wielding a knife as he sprints, so if that's not the look you're going for, you can cover up the knife with an embellishment or sentiment placard. I used the Daffodils stamp for the background color-blocking, but any background pattern stamp would work. 

Celebrate the Halloween season with us by uploading your own creation to the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity. You have until the spookiest night of the year...October 31! 

Running Through The Flowers

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 with some Spooktacular Florals inspiration.  I've made a tag with the awesome  Day Of The Dead Man by Lost Coast Designs and one of my most favourite sentiments from Carmen's Veranda.

Tee hee!!  I cut the tag from grey grungy card using a die and stamped with Lost Coast Designs Flowers Background and pink ink.  I stamped Carmen's Veranda Free Bad Advice onto the tag using black archival ink.  I stamped Day Of The Dead Man on some white card, coloured with distress markers, fussy cut him and added it him to the tag.  A little fancy wool and done!

Share your Day of the Dead makes or anything featuring flowers with a spooky or somber twist.  Real rubber or clear stamping and the theme must be the focus of your project for a chance to win Lost Coast dollars! 
 
 

Dia De Los Muertos

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!

Good morning and a very happy Wednesday.  It's Sue here and I'm continuing with the Spooky Florals challenge by bringing you my Day of the Dead couple.

I started by making my floral background with the Flowers background stamp.

Then I stamped and embossed another piece with Carmen's Veranda Skulls and Bones Background to make my spooky flowers.

Aren't the Day Of The Dead Man and Woman a fun couple. He may be carrying the knife but she looks scarier to me!

These are my fab stamps
