Do your recognize this image? Well, let me refresh your memory....
It's the Happy Haunting image from Your Next Stamp!! I was THRILLED (and so impressed with myself, LOL) when I came up with this idea. I can think of nothing better than a multi-purpose stamp and this a good one!! I came up with the idea really out of desperation. My mom wanted a card to give to her new neighbors and asked me to make one for her. I don't have any "house" stamps other than a haunted house, so I wasn't sure what I was going to do. Then it hit me to just cover the "scary" parts of the haunted house with flower soft!! :) The path was created by dotting it with different shades of brown to resemble pebbles and glossy accents on the windows to make them look reflective.
