Trick or Treating with Tiddly Inks and Simply Betty Stamps

Hi Ya Everyone - so excited about the blog hop today - here is what Christy and Betty want you to know about the hop:

"Welcome to the collision of Tiddly Inks and Simply Betty Stamps. :) One fun, fun, fun blog hop and crash 'em up! Betty (of Simply Betty Stamps) and I are big Halloween fans, so naturally we had to put together a fun Trick or Treat Blog Hop....Boo!


How to Participate: Post your creation (which I hope you already created) on your personal blog today between 12:00 PM CST (noon) and 5:55 PM CST. The title of your post should be "Trick or Treating with Tiddly Inks and Simply Betty Stamps." If possible, your post is to include a Trick (a technique) or a Treat (a gorgeous card :D).

Once your blog post is completed, visit the Simply Betty Stamps blog and link your exact URL in the Inlinkz list at the bottom of the her post in order to be qualified for the prizes. There is no need to sign up in advance, but the Inlinkz list will close at 6:00 PM CST. Then we hop, Halloween style, from the Simply Betty Stamps blog. If you don't plan to enter a card, still come along and comment. :) Everyone would appreciate it and you might get super inspired---or spooked. :)

Prizes: Two blogger participant winners will be announced November 5 and highlighted on the hosting blogs, Tiddly Inks and Simply Betty Stamps. Both winners will receive a $10 gift voucher from Tiddly Inks and digital images of her choice from Simply Betty Stamps.

Many of the design team members are offering freebies and prizes along the way, so even if you don't plan on entering a card, come along and find all the tricks and treats."

Now, on to my creation - well creations!  I made two cards - and because I couldn't decide which I liked better I decided I would post two.  Now, I'm offering a treat on my hop - because I'm out of tricks - LOL.  Anyhow, I am going to purchase two digital stamps of my winners choice - Your choice of one from Simply Betty and a choice from Tiddly Inks.  I love Chirsty's stamps as you know and am starting to fall in love with Betty's too!  So I would like to share this love with you.  All you have to do is leave me a comment here and tell me what card of mine you like better! 

For my card I made a standard easel card for both.  Colored Betty Witch Digi in Copics and fussy cut her.

Card 2

For the orange colored card I used a paper that had a little haunted house in it and cut it out.  I also cut out some transparency in a rectangle and with my Gypsy made a little window frame.  I also altered a bird from Straight from the Nest by flipping it's wing upside down and using that as a larger beak to make a crow.  I layered all of this and popped Betty out from the background.

For my second card I used the cartridge MiniMonsters and cut out the Haunted House.  I adhered all the pieces and glittered some portions to look spider web covered.  I then popped Betty from the page. 

Finally, I pulled some wire out of one of my wired ribbons and threaded some cut out bats on the wire and adhered that to the card.  Oh, I also computer generated my sentiment and cut that out with my nestables.

Thanks for looking and joining in on the fun - I can't wait to see your creations! So please join in the fun.  Here's the hop order and if you get lost simply go back to Tiddly Inks or Simply Betty! 

Below is the list of the design team members for both companies if you want to start with a few blogs and see some amazing cards----and maybe find some goodies along the way. The rest of the participants are on the inlinkz list on Betty's blog and you can find those starting tonight at 6 PM CST....please come back then to see other the entries. And also be sure to come back on November 5 when we will be featuring 2 participant bloggers. So much fun for days and days...:)
