A note from Rachelle Anne Miller:

I am an artist & designer living in the beautiful Adelaide Hills in South Australia with my husband and three amazing children! I love to create and am especially drawn to all things cute. I've worked on children's books, greeting cards, craft supplies, children's room décor, tech accessories, and more. I love to bring out joy and imagination in my art and create something a little different to inspire and make you smile.

Using this adorable digi called Peek-a-Boo Raccoons from Ram Stamps, I created this card.

The card base is a file from Silhouette.  I thought it would make a cute card for my grandson.  Open the creepy gate and find the cuties inside :-)

I did use our optional twist of adding a ribbon.  I used the ribbon to keep the gates "locked".

Here is a close up of these adorable raccoons.  I used the sentiment a little different than intended.  I uploaded the whole digi in Silhouette Design Studio, then print and cut the little critters, but separated the sentiment and cut it out of black cardstock.  Then put a piece of white cardstock behind it.  This saved me the trouble of trying to cut out the letters individually and lining them up while adhering them to the background :-)

I used the Happy Halloween greeting that comes in this digi set, but added a couple of bats just to add a little something extra.  I print and cut this mat and adhered it to the back.  This is where I will be writing my personal message.  This turned out to be a 5" x 7" card so it fits perfectly into an A7 envelope.

Thank you so much for stopping by today.  I would love to you see you play along with us.  You have until noon, CST, on 8 October 2024, to link your project to our challenge.
