happy howl-o-ween {lawn fawn inspiration week}

Hi there, and welcome back to another day of Lawn Fawn's August inspiration week!  We're showing off our best hallowieners today - Happy Howloween is an amazing dog-themed Halloween set, where you can dress up your pups in all sorts of cute costumes.

I kept my scene simple and cute, with the male pup handing over his Halloween winnings to his lady friend. Right?

I'm still a huge fan of using a black copic-friendly pen to fill in the lines once the die-cuts are in place. The images look so much more seamless like this!

Without adding the black lines and coloring the white spaces, you wouldn't be able to tell that the bucket strap is in the dog's mouth. It would just look like it's resting on top.

It's an extra step that take hardly any time, but makes a huge difference!

I hope you like it - there's way more to see on the LF blog this morning - click!

    1. Hi Wiktoria! I actually used an old Lawn Fawn patterned paper (that they no longer sell!) It's a starry night paper. I did use some darker blue ink around the edges to give it more drama, and I used a white gel pen to highlight a few brighter stars. Thanks for your kind words!
