Some Odd Girl Trick or Treat Hop

We’d like to welcome you to Some Odd Girl‘s 2nd annual Trick or Treat Halloween Hop! 

Thank you so much for joining us!  All of the Odd Girls have concocted a creepy little creation to inspire you today, and you’re invited to visit each blog to see what’s been brewing!   You might have arrived from Melissa’s blog – if so, you’re on the right track!  If not, you’ll want to CLICK HERE to get things started, because you won’t want to miss a thing!

We’ll be sharing some of these pretties are the Some Odd Girl blog over the next few days, but TODAY, we kick things off!  So you might be wondering what this Trick or Treat stuff is all about, yeah?  Well, in addition to amazing papercrafty goodness you’ll see at each stop, you’ll get tricks along the way, too!  Simple tips and tricks to little secrets we papercrafters have figured out that we want to share with you!  That covers the Tricks.

And then there are TREATS! 

As you hop, you’ll come across some Treats, located at random Odd Girls‘ blogs.  We have some clear stamps, some Odds & Ends, some digi stamps and lots and lots of inspiration for you!  AND, as if that wasn’t exciting already, we have a discount code for you! 

Now for my little make for the hop- I love giving little goodie bags and boxes so that's what I created here using an oldie-but-a-goodie digi image called Pumpkins!  My little trick is that if you're printing a digi directly onto a card base or project like I did here first print it on a regular piece of printer paper.  Then just attach your base on top of the printer paper with some removable adhesive or washi tape- you'll get the perfect alignment every time :)

Be sure to leave a comment at each stop, and if YOU have any tricks you’d like to share, we’d love to hear them!  There might just be a prize in it for one commenter who leaves us a trick!  Okay.  So have you got all that?  Are you ready?  Well allllll righty!  LET’S HOP!   Here’s your hop order:

Lil Bandit

Hiya crafty peeps!  Another Tuesday means another digi release over at Some Odd Girl and I'm sticking with my Halloween goodies to show off Bandit Wizard!  Isn't he the cutest?  I struggled with this one because he would also be perfect for a birthday card if you used a sentiment about it being magical- but my love of Halloween won out so that's what I ended up going with.  But I can already see he's going to get a lot of use in my craft room :)

Now make sure you pop on by the Some Odd Girl Blog to see the other amazing inspiration and goodies going up today.  And if you want some SOG goodness for yourself just hop on over to the shop.  Don't forget there's still some time left to join in the Digi Me Contest- I've been loving all the entries so far!

As always, thanks so much for taking time out of your day to visit me!

Having Fun with a Tiddly Inks Halloween Hop!

 

Welcome to the Tiddly Inks Halloween Blog Hop!  Today, we are celebrating our favorite time of year with a beautiful and fun hop for all of you.  Are you ready to get your Halloween on?   You'll have until November 2nd to hop with us. 

There are many blogs along the way and we'd love for you to leave a comment on each blog.  Leaving a comment will make you eligible for a chance to win a most fabulous prize; a $10 gift certificate to anything digital in our store!  The winner will be announced on November 3rd!

Along the way you will see a number of NEW Tiddly images you've never seen before.  It's a bit of a sneak peak as the release isn't until tomorrow.  Make sure to join us back on the Tiddly Inks blog tomorrow for the new release and a chance at winning your choice of THREE of the new digital stamps!!!

For my project I found this super cool wooden casket at Craft Warehouse and painted it black-I knew it would be the perfect match to the two digi's that I wanted to use- Vamp Me and the tombstone from the Vampire Extra Pack!  Then I pulled out some of my favorite Halloween embellishments like cheesecloth and red roses to finish the whole thing off.  I love how it turned out and think I'll put it out in my office as a Halloween decoration :)  

I hope you enjoyed my make- have fun on the rest of the hop- I promise you won't be disappointed!  Ready to keep hopping...then get going!

Halloween Hopping with Some Odd Girl

Ding Dong! 

Glad you decided to come and Trick or Treat with the Odd Girls! You should have arrived from Suzanne’s blog.  If you’ve just stumbled on our hop today, you’ll want to go back to the Some Odd Girl blog to start at the beginning. 

Our hop this week is full of spooktacular Halloween Tricks and Treats. Don’t worry, our tricks won’t be too scary! AND, just like trick or treating for candy, you don’t want to skip any houses…or blogs in this case!  In order to win TREATS, you must leave a comment on each of the Design Team blogs.

The trick, or tip, you'll be picking up from me is to do a little looking at reference pictures when you're coloring something new.  I created a whole Pinterest board with Vampire references so I could find something that I loved and that I thought people would instantly recognize.  Speaking of Vampire's- would you get a look at little miss Shy Mae!  Me thinks she can't be called shy anymore- don't you agree?  For a chance at the treats available along the hop leave me a comment with the name you think suits this Mae best now.

     The next blog you will Trick or Treat is Isha’s blog.

 You can Trick or Treat with us thru midnight EDT on October 31. Winners will be announced Saturday Nov 2 on the Some Odd Girl blog.  Have Fun!!

Mad Scientist

Hiya crafty peeps!  Just popping to share with you a new little make that I did with one of the new digi release images from Some Odd Girl this week Mad Scientist Tobie :)  I totally love him- he kinda reminds me of Dr. Horrible- which makes him super cool in my book!  And I figured he was a perfect image to practice coloring some glow with my Copics- I was totally intimidated but for my first time I think it came out pretty good. I hope you enjoy this little card and if you want some more awesome inspiration don't forget to stop by the SOG blog.  As always thanks so much for stopping in to visit me!
