Today I am sharing with you 2 cards that I made using two new Halloween sets.
My first card uses stamps from set 470 Candy Corn Halloween.
This set is one of the 2 newest Halloween sets in the Sparkle N Sprinkle line. Love the witches in this set. There are 3 witches to choose from and I chose Candy the Sweet Halloween Witch. See that glittery black background, I made my own glitter paper and its so easy.

For my last card, I used an image and a sentiment from Stampette set - 471 The Good Witch, the other newest Halloween set
Isn't she pretty!!

Barbara, those are two very elegant Halloween cards you've created. I especially like the second one.
Wonderful cards! I love the sparkle on the first one and the cute broom on the second!
Your cards are lovely. Love the purple border on the second card. Really frames your colored image nicely.
The homemade broom is awesome. I thought about making some large ones with candy on the inside similar to yours just not fully cut out. Great idea. I really love your border using the good witch stamp.
Love your glitter paper background and the frame on the second one is gorgeous!!! The "bats in the round" is a nice touch and love the blue background on the second one too.
Such cute cards Barbara! Love the sparkling paper on the first - awesome! And the sparkling frame and adorable little broom on the second card - so very cute!
Two cute and sparkly cards--great job!
Super cards Barbara. I love the glittered background on the first, and that sparkly frame on the second is just a knockout. I love the colors you used too!
Love the fence behind the first one...great cards:)
Love the new stamp sets, and love what you've done with them!

Barb, You are the end of the train..lol. Very nice cards, I am curious about digital stamps, maybe soon I can try them out.
Love your cards. They got my creative juices flowing for sure.
Your cards are so great, Barb! Love that glittered background. This was a great hop, just the right amount of participants to keep you interested.

Love your colors, and the use of glitter paper! This blog hop has provided so many fab ideas, I may have to give up housework for awhile, lol. Thanks to all!
Love the colors in the first and the original idea of using the words to make the skull face in the second!
Barbara, love your colors and brilliant use of glitters! That Shimmer EP on the black CS looks fabulous! And the use of bats in the circle look great! Celeste looks awesome - she was prematurely silver like me LOL Does that make me a good witch? Thanks for sharing your pretty cards, Seestah!
great job barbara..I love your color choices..
Great cards Barbara I luv the glitter paper that is a neat technique and the way the bats just fly around the witch is cool. Thanks for sharing.
Fun cards! I'm really loving the good witch stamp and the little bats on the first card are simply fun! Thanks so much for sharing your art!
I really love that new Halloween witch set, Barbara! Terrific use of the glitter to so the paper. And, yes, I adore digis and I'm so happy the SnS is carrying some now. Hope to see more and more of them in the future. :-D
By putting the first witch in a circle with her broom, I feel like asking her if she wants to go for a spin(lol)! The broom on the second card is cute.
Yes, she is pretty. I bet these cards really sparkle. Colors are nice and bright. Great cards.
yes i like digital images also they are easy you can re-size them the girl is very pretty. I like all your card thanks
The glitter background is really nice and it wants me to touch it...well, almost. I like the glitter around the good witch as well. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.
Fun fun fun cards, with glitter everywhere! Just love them! Thank you for sharing.
Cute cards and I especially love the 3 D broom!
Very nice cards, love the glitter border on the good witch.
Thanks for sharing. Really cute cards.
I like her grey hair. The glittery purple border is lovely. The broom is a nice touch. I'm really curious how you made it. It didn't say in the gallery description.
Barbara, what great Halloween cards. Love all the sparkle on both, and the little broom on the second card is a wonderful addition.
Love the broom! It makes the card! My favorite is the skull though!
Great job!

Both of your cards are so pretty! Love that glitter paper and broom! :)
Your cards really inspire me to make Halloween cards. I thought the glitter paper you made for the first one was a fabulous background for a spooky card, great idea. The whole card was very well balanced and eye pleasing. I loved the 2 circles with Candy, the sweet witch, gracing the middle of the circles and having freaky bats fluttering all around her. Your second card was great, too. I would never have thought to color the witch's hair gray, but it makes perfect sense since it fits in with the idea of an eerie Halloween. However, then you colored her scarf at the top of her hat and on her dress pink turning her into the good witch that she is. Good thinking went into the making of this card. I loved the broom handle anchor for the tag with the saying, too. Serenity1944
I am really loving all the cards on the hop! Really like the idea of the good witch, and am crazy about the colors you used!
I see that since you were last you swept up all the sprinkled sparkles with not one, but two, projects with brooms!
I want to try the glitter paper technique! Love the Halloween Witch Set!
love all the colors & appeal of card 1 & also love the glamourous witch card tks Sandy
Wonderful cards. Love that glitter paper, will have to try that technique. Love all the details you added to your cards. Awesome...
Wow what awesome cards! Love all the details on your cards!
I like the cute witch encircled with the purple ring with bats in it.
Gorgeous designs and coloring! I love it!the glitters are so sparkly and bright! Thatnk you for sharing with us.
So cute! Love you colors and the broom is adorable. (I just became a follower - sorry, I thought I already was.)
I like the "real" broom holding the tag by the good witch. Think the "batty" circle framing the witch in the first card is cute.
Janet
So adorable! LOVE that broom!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your cards! Such stunning details!!!
Wonderful cards! Love the witches broom and the round purple border with bats that surrounds the witch.
Fantastic cards! I love the colors you chose to use for these Halloween themed creations and your coloring is just magnificent!
