SUO Challenges: Frankie & Friends

Hey hey, happy Tuesday!  And it's time for a new challenge from SUO Challenges!

Check out the inspiration photo:

Tammy does such a great job of putting up challenge graphics for the design team well in advance, which means I had time to by (yet another) retired Halloween stamp set just for this challenge!  Take a look:

That cake made me think of this Frankie stamp and die set from Tricks & Treats, which I remember debating whether or not I should get it when it was first introduced.  Better late than never, right?  I paired Frankie and the haunted house with some retired Pumpkin Pie DSP.  All the black is heat embossed so it's shiny.

We still have a couple of days before Halloween, so time to get some last-minute spooky sweet cards done!  Or maybe you can take that inspiration photo and turn it into something NOT Halloweeny?  Ooh, I might have to take that challenge up myself.  ETA:  so right after I hit publish on this post, I took a look at Cynthia's blog and she DID make a non-Halloween card for this challenge, and it's amazing!  Now I really can't wait to get the Branching Out bundle in my hot little hands, I ordered it last week.

Hope you have fun and don't forget to upload your creation on the SUO Challenges blog.  Cheers!
