Next head on to the extremely talented Ashley Newell's blog. If you've gotten off track, don't worry! Head on back to Lawnscaping to see the complete list of designers and prize information!

I made a card using the new Happy Haunting stamp set from Lawn Fawn. I paper pieced the house and made the ghosts from Clearly for Art modeling paper by Wendi Vecchi. You just stamp the paper with permanent ink, cut it out and heat with heat tool. When it becomes soft you have about 10 seconds to mold it before it hardens in place. I added some close ups of the ghosts so you can see the effect - it's kind of hard to see on the straight on card picture.

Here's my card: 

Ghost 1

Ghost 2
