I've had this costume shop stamp for quite a while and have always been meaning to use it. This year, I finally got to it! Paired with the line of trick or treaters, it's pretty darn adorable! I made the black "picture frame" for it with two rectangular nesting dies, one inside the other. Once again, I used Copic markers and Spica glitter pens. And once again, the Spica glitter was *really* hard to capture with the camera. I did my best though. Also, looking at the picture of this card, I just realized I forgot to color the tail on one of the kids dressed as a devil! Oops!! Better fix that before I mail it! Once it was all assembled, it felt like it was missing something. So, I stamped the tiny trick or treat in the corner below the costume shop. However, that didn't look right either. Then I tried stamping it on the orange gingham, and that really made it pop! The inside says, "happy halloween".
