Welcome to the October 2022 Inking Royalty Blog Hop! This month’s blog hop is dedicated to Halloween. The inspiration for my card is a shirt I saw online and thought was a hoot:

I decided to make my own version with the sweater from the Forever Friendship stamp set. Just FYI, the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Marker is great for blood…ya know, just in case you ever need it. I used the black ink pad to grunge up the layers on the front and the inside. The one time I didn’t get an ink smudge on the card, and I wanted to!

We are excited to share our creations and hope you love them! After reading my post, I hope you will hop to the next person on the list below. Be sure to hop around to see ALL the great projects the Royals have created for you!
