Good morning! Welcome to another spook-tacular DeNami Designs blog hop! This month's theme is Halloween! You have hopefully found your way here by way of Laura Petruso's swanky blog (you weren't trailed by any ghouls or goblins along the way, were you??), and if you have, then you are on the right track! :)
Ok, so… Halloween! I have mentioned on this blog before that, while I love Halloween, I really, really, really don't like to be scared -- call me a chicken, 'cuz it's true…. Cute and fun Halloween is way more up my alley. So, I thought what better for a cute and fun Halloween card than a chubby polka-dotted spider?!?
I used my favorite DeNami stamp -- the Circle Scallop Cling Stamp! (I know, I know… with all the super-cute designs in the DeNami arsenal, how could this unassuming little guy stand out as a favorite, you ask?? Well, silly, it's 'cuz it's such a versatile stamp!! Seriously, I use it a lot… and in a lot of different ways!! And look what a cute little spider it makes!!! What's not to love?!? :)
{Bonus Footage: So, at the risk of being labeled crass, I just had to share this next pic… As I was setting up to take a "detail" shot (I was trying to show the glittery iridescence of my spider's web…), my little Emmitt decided he'd share his own version of "trick or treat" with you, my lovely readers! Ha! I guess this is definitely a photo-fail! :) }
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope this hop has been a real "thriller!" I'm about to send you on your way, off to Lani M's "Mutant Scrapbooker" blog (could there be a more perfect blog name for today's theme?!), but before I do, I just wanted to remind you that you'll want to leave comments all along the hop because there will be two lucky commenters who will win mini shopping sprees from DeNami Designs! :)
Good luck and Happy Hopping!
I'm a chicken too Jen. There I said it! Phew! Love this design from top to bottom. Perfect bow, perfect layout, perfect details. I LOVE it!

ReplyDeleteSuper adorable! I love your cutout window and that fantastic bow. I have that ribbon leftover from a wreath I made, so I just may have to have some show up on cards too! Thanks for the idea! Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteI'm sooooo loving this!! How creative :)
ReplyDeleteVery clever spider!
ReplyDeleteYour card is different and I just love it! Great use of your standard stamps to create a spider. The unexpected photo ops are the ones that we love, believe me every time I go to take photo of my cat for annual Christmas card, she rolls onto her back and splays her legs for the whole world to see. Animals are joy aren't they.
ReplyDeleteJen, that outtake photo has me cracking up!!! Love your card! And you are so creative with your spider. Wow!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute!!! I love the colors!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so creative to make the spider using that scallop circle! WOW!! I am soooo impressed!
ReplyDeleteEEK! Adorableness! I love fun Halloween too, not the scary stuff. And your dog totally photo bombed you! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteOK, this is going to be two words I never thought I would say together, but that is a "cute spider!"
ReplyDeleteSO cute!! I love the spider!
