Day two of MFP blog hop with I'm Going Batty stamps! witches, ghost and bats, oh my! Halloween is one of my favorite times to make cards cause I can go scary or witchey! Today I'm going witchey and Booooooooo! For my Boo card I did the same glitter technique as on my pirates' map card. It is fun to stamp on glitter! I even white embossed the Boo saying which is something I don't do very often but embossing in white on black is just so dramatic. Did some white dashes around the edge of the stamped card with a white gel pen. Now onto my second card which is a blast from the past!!! An old fashion slider card. First I cut out a cloud template and stippled (another blast from the past) the clouds with a couple of blue ink pads. For an old fashion slider you need to get out your exacto knife to cut two parallel then add ribbon to it from the back with a paper stopper. Got out my favorite color medium....can you guess what that is? my Prisma color pencils to color the flying witch on the moon. Continue on to Kelli to see what she did this set of stamps.

Sue, great work! Love the simplicity with the dashes around the first and your sky on the second is terrific.

I've never seen a slider card made like this. Both cards are very cute.

This is the way we used to make slider cards before all the punches and dies came out on the market. guess I'm showing my age. lol!
maybe if Bonnie wants I'll do a tutorial on MFP.

Great cards! I have never done a slider card this way [and I'm not a youngster] but it is perfect for the witch. I love the simplicity of the ghost card.
