Hello, this is my first time using Under the Stars, what a lot of fun this set will be!
I was punching out all my new sets, putting them together, when I noticed a nice big piece of rubber left on the 'Snow Swirled' set. It was big enough to fit the racoon! So I stamped the racoon onto the flat rubber, and then onto the white cs to get a reverse image!
I stamped another racoon, a bear, a bear head, the can of beans, and the fire which is from the Hanna Luau set from Hanna Stamps.
I coloured all the images with SU ink and an aqua painter. The can was also coloured with a silver metallic gelly roll pen.
I used a studio g $ stamp from Michael's for the grass, stamped onto garden green. The ground/dirt is close to cocoa torn and sponged with close to cocoa and creamy caramel. The edges of the night of navy card base are also sponged.
The bears head is popped up, and I cut the racoons tiny hand with a knife to slip the stick under, so it looks like he's holding it.
The sky has tiny sparkles made with a glue pen and dazzling diamonds glitter. The Boo sentiment is from the Trick or Treat set by Hanna Stamps, I stamped it with night of navy.

Just adorable. The raccoon is really the only stamp I like in that set, but the bear works well with your theme. Love the layers of torn brown alternated with the grass, and the twinkly stars.
