Color Hues #143

 

Welcome back Crafty Friends.  Today I'm sharing a Halloween card I created for my daughter.  She's wanted a Porch Goose since moving into her new home last year but with their newlywed budget she couldn't justify the expense.  Have no fear, Mama's here.  LOL!!!  I figured 15 months was long enough to wait so I recently surprised her with one along with some fun outfits.  I'll share a couple of photos at the end of this blog post.

I used to love to color but over the past several years I've found that I much prefer assembling die cuts for my cards.  For that reason I was easily able to pass up all but one thing from Simon's Stamptember event...the Brutus Monroe Silly Goose set which I used for our new Color Hues challenge....

Tracey chose the perfect October color pairing!

  

These were obviously very easy images to color and I didn't do anything fancy.  What you can't see in the photo however is the embossed spider web background and the Action Wobbler behind the goose.  Together they up the card fun just a bit.  This stamp set did not come with dies but I generally use my Scan and Cut to cut out the images to save some money.  (I've had my machine forever and it's a work horse.)

Supplies:

Brutus Monroe/Simon Says Stamp Exclusive - Silly Goose stamp set

Simon Says Stamp -Spooky Web embossing folder

Honeybee Stamps - tiny gold stars

Art Impressions - Action Wobbler

As promised, here are a couple of Porch Goose photos...
