Halloween Howl 2026 - Day15
Super cute doggie Halloween for todays' ATC. They are all dressed up and ready to party, and no doubt, looking for treats. They are so adorable in their costumes. I imagine dogs are more willing to let you dress them up than cats are. LOL
The card that I sent to my partner today is 'spooktacular'. Three little ghosts are joyfully frolicking on Halloween night. They look like they are having fun, don't they?

Halloween Howl 2026 - Day 14
I don't know how I forgot to post last night but I did, so this is post number two for today. The Frankenstein most is larger than life on the ATC for Day 14. I don't know how she created that bumpy background, is it texture paste or did the paper come like that. I can't figure it out.
The trick or treaters are out on the card I created for Day 14. It looks like they are having lots of fun. I remember going out when I was a child and then with my own children. Always a great night.
Halloween Howl 2026 - Day 13
Day 13 has lots of pumpkins and a cute little cat! The card also features orange metallic ribbon with black on the edges, along with some teeny tiny glittery stars. It's a very happy card. I love it.
The ATC I sent to my partner for day 13 has a very spooky looking tree with a ghost and bat flying by. I actually really like this background I made. It looks like it has depth when it is just paint and stamping, very one dimensional.

Halloween Howl 2026 - Day 12
Another winner from my partner today! There are so many elements to the day 12 ATC. She included paint, silver texture paste, gold thread and tiny gems. It's a miniature work of art. Why am I so afraid to experiment like that? The results are phenomenal.
My card to her today did branch out a bit with painted drywall tape in the background, stamping and die cutting. But I always seem to fall back to my old, trusted techniques. I hope she is not disappointed with the ATCs this year.

Halloween Howl 2026 - Day 11
The background for Day 11 consists of paint, stamping, embossing and faux stitiches made with a marker. I love the creativity of my partner! I really must broaden my horizons and start experimenting with different techniques.
The ATC that I made for her today has a Halloween gnome complete with a witches hat and pumpkins. I enjoy using these multi-piece die sets and seeing them come to life as I assemble them.
