Welcome to today’s challenge with the Crafty Collaborations group! If this is your first time hopping with us, we are thrilled to have you here. We are a collective of demonstrators from the USA, Canada, and beyond, sharing our inventive ideas to spark your creativity. If you’ve hopped with us earlier, we’re delighted you’ve returned to soak up more inspiration. And if you’re new here, Welcome! Let’s dive right into the hop!
We have the option to use one or more of the blocks in the picture below to incorporate into the design. Choose to use the two-step stamping for the card.

Use the Tricks & Treats stamp set for this card. Frankie was stamped in Parakeet Party, and his face and hair were stamped in Tuxedo Black.

Here is what the stamp set looks like for the two-step stamping. Frankenstein and Drac are the two-step stamps. First is the outline of the face, and then the second is the facial parts.

Here is a bag created with the two-step stamping. Mrs. Frankie. This is a gift bag. Her hair is using the Share a Milkshake stamp set. I added eyelashes, cut off the knobs, and gave her earrings instead. Isn’t she adorable?
