Hello everyone! Liesbeth here with two ATC's with those gorgeous gnome witches for our current challenge Gnome-vember. Aren't they lovely?

31 Days of Halloween Day 22

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!

Boo! Aimee here. If I had to take a guess at the most popular Halloween costume over the years, I would put my money on a Witch. One year I spent Halloween in Salem, Massachusetts--the epicenter of all things Witches for the United States. What a spectacle! If you want one of the best people watching experiences ever, head to Salem on October 31.

This cute witch is one of Lost Coast Designs new gnome stamps--Gnome Witch With Stars. She's a little one, so I wanted to show her off by putting her behind a windowpane in the center of the card. To help her stand out, I colored her clothes bright orange to contrast the green and black of the card base. Follow along with these photos to see how I put the card together.

What are you dressing up as for Halloween this year? Will you be a cute witch or a scary witch? Or, if costumes aren't your thing, how about celebrating the holiday by participating in this month's Lost Coast Designs Challenge? Submit your creation by October 31 to win a prize. 

31 Days of Halloween day #12

Cathy here with a fun Halloween card for you today.

Stamp Used:

Gnome witch with stars

This was a fun and fast card to make. I started out with making the background. I used distress oxide inks for it. I took 2 orange colors, and I did the smooshing technique. Then I dried it and added a broom stencil with some black ink and that is it for the background. I layered that on a black card base. 

For the gnome witch I stamped her in an orange distress oxide and then spritzed some water on it the make it wick out. I dried it right away to stop the wicking. Layer that on black cardstock and put her right in the middle. 

Come join the 31 days of Halloween challenge over on the blog.
