Hello Friends, How are you? I can’t believe that we are in the middle of October already!!! Today I have a short post and a giveaway! I just had to wip this card up quickly to show you how awesome this stamp set is from Mama Elephant called, “Bootastic”.(there is a matching die too) Stencils are a favorite of mine and they can really jazz up a background. I used “Mosaic Stars” with some distress ink for this background.

I added wink of stella on the dress and hat, glossy accents on the boots. Simon has a white ink that’s fantastic that I used on the vellum.

GIVEAWAY MAMA ELEPHANT’S BOOTASTIC STAMP SET : Just leave me a comment and I will  announce a winner on Tuesday October 21st. Good Luck. I will be back Thursday for the Mama Elephants blog hop!! Thanks for stopping. Hugs, Kathy

    This set was already on My wishlist but your card made it jump to the top! Absolutely LOVE the bg too!

  6. Maryann says

    It is such a cute card. These stamps are perfect as they´re cute spooky,if you can say that ha ha ha. But it says spooky without being too spooky for even small kids, I love this.

  7. Jeannie L says

    Love that stenciled background. I was trying to see if it was stamped or not. Ha. Love the card and the white ink does look good. Thanks for sharing.

  11. Julia says

    Love your coloring, Kathy! Especially like you used the white gel pen ( I assume) on the witch’s hair to add highlights – that’s so clever (and I’ll totally be stealing that idea 😉 ).

    Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win this set, it’s so super cute!

    • Kathy Racoosin says

      Yes you are correct Julia I did add white gel pen to the witches hair. Thanks for noticing 🙂

    A super adorable card, Kathy. Also love that stencilled background. No need to include me in the drawing, though, since I don’t really have any use for these Halloween-themed images, cute as they may be.

  138. Candice L. says

    That’s one of my favorite stamp sets from Mama Elephant. All the characters in it are so darn cute, especially the mummy….I love that one! I love what you did with the star mosaic in the background; I just saw that one at SSS, and was curious how versatile it would be. Thank you for the chance to win.

  148. cristy greene says

    You’re card is super cute! I don’t really make Halloween cards, rather I make Halloween tags. The images in this stamp set is perfect for little Halloween tags. The best part (for me) is how simple it is to dress up the images.

  149. Tonya says

    Ok – can’t get over how cute this little witch is! The coloring is really fantastic- thanks for sharing

  150. Jean Lamb says

    Amazing! I never thought about the cards I make serving more than one purpose. I love the ornament idea. Wonderful keepsake. Thanks for sharing.

  156. Cindy O says

    Your card reminds me of a snow globe. Love them. Huge thank you for the advice “just have fun with it” and “no matter what, it will look great” Sometimes I think I need to give up making cards.

  159. Snazzy JJ says

    Kathy you make the most interesting, detailed cards! Love the mosaic stars and your darling witch.

  163. Maye M.L. says

    No doubt about this cutie being a good witch. Love Halloween, albeit a bit panic stricken by how close it is. Wink of Stella you are a magic potion! Cheers!

  176. Christine P says

    OMG how cute is your card! I LOVE the background and that Mama Elephant stamp is so adorable!!!

  177. Mary Brown says

    This card is sooooo stinking cute! I cannot wait until I have enough saved to make my first SSS order and make my very first card! I have been watching your videos and tutorials (as well as a few other very talented ladies) for 2 months now, and I’m uber excited—and, admittedly more than a little impatient, lol– to start card making and someday maybe even be on a design team for an amazing stamp company like ME, Lawn Fawn, Clearly Besotted, or SSS! Thank you all for changing my mind about card-making and for sharing your vast knowledge!! You ladies are so creative and I just love to watch you at work, soaking up all I can learn! Please keep them coming!!!

  181. Ann Marie says

    Great card. I would like to win this stamp set because I’m a much bigger fan of cute than scary.

  184. Linda Duensing says

    Sorry about the last comment. My computer kept screen kept going back to this website after I left my comment. Please delete this one and the one before.

    I can’t wait to see your Christmas cards. I love Christmas! I love snowflakes!I need some ideas! (ha,ha)

  186. Cindy Pryor says

    I enjoyed watching your video, especially the Copic coloring part, as I have recently invested in a number of those markers. You are relaxed and yet careful. Lovely card!

  194. Maureen Chandler says

    What a sweet card – love your little witch and special coloring! Thanks too for the chance to win!!

  195. Melitta Ball says

    Awesome card! The background is so subtle that IT doesn’t overpower the centrepiece witch. But complements her instead! Thanks for sharing!
    Blessings,
    Melitta
