Well this morning I dug out a monster themed stamp set intending to use it…but then I just got a bit side tracked and came up with something else entirely LOL!!!
But it is still monster themed so I did at least manage that part! He came about because I wanted to make something that had big monster eyes using Circle Punches and well…once I began making those eyes I ended up going down a path and I just couldn’t stop because he was turning out SO CUTE!!!
FREE TUTORIAL!!! Once I made him I knew I would have questions so I decided to put together a tutorial for those who would like it – please scroll down to find the link to it – there is also a printable version too!
Here he is…please click on the photos below for a larger view…

His nose…made using Tangerine Tango
His mouth…made using the Scallop Edge Border Punch

So cute, Sarah! I love peanut butter pumpkins and tootsie rolls (which seem to be the least favorite for the trick-or-treaters…so more for me!) This time of year is so fun!
