Halloween Treats

Happy Halloween!  I wanted to share with you two of the treats we made for the kids this Halloween.  The first is a "smore" kit that has graham crackers, chocolate bars, and ghost Peeps.  The toppers were quick and easy using the Warmest of Wishes and Teenie Tiny Wishes stamp set and the owl and moder label punches.  The designer paper is Frightful Nights.  These are going to be handed out to some of our neighbor friends.

The next treat is what we made for Aidan's classmates.  The idea came from Monika Davis, see hers here.  It recycles the brown packing paper that comes in our Stampin' Up shipping boxes and the clear scallop square die and Big Shot to create an envelope.  After gluing the sides I ran each side through the crimper and then punched out the moon and bat.  The owl is from the Warmest of Wishes stamp set and is then punched out with the owl punch.  The final touch is the greeting from the Teenie Tiny Wishes stamp set.  There's plenty of room in the packet for an eraser, pencil, and a couple pieces of candy (sure to have something for everyone to enjoy!)

Hope you have a fun and safe day!

Grateful Wishes

Today I wanted to share one of the cards we made a this months Stamp-a-Stack.  This card showcases the Spice Cake designer paper and all it's beautiful colors.  I also used the Houndstooth embossing folder and the big shot for the Soft Suede piece and the Pool Party Ruffled Ribbon.

The stamp sets used in this card is Day of Gratitude (for the thank you greeting) and the Warmest of Wishes Hostess Set.  I colored in the wreath with markers and then used the 1 1/4" circle and scallop circle punch to cut it out.

Now check out the accent behind the scallop, that's called a "lolly."  These seem to be all the rage right now and are super easy to make with the new Simply Scored Board from the Holiday Mini Catalog.

This is such a pretty card and I love all the texture.

Happy stamping,

September Stamp-a-Stack

Good evening!  What a crazy week, it's amazing how the start of school turned out schedules upside and left us running to catch up.  I wanted to share the projects we'll be making at this months Stamp-a-Stack, you are going to love them!

There's still time to join us on Sunday, just call or email me so everything will be all set.

It's been so much fun playing with all the fun new items from the Holiday mini catalog, you have got to try them out.  One of my favorites the the new Simply Scored Board, it's so easy and I've been having fun making lollies all night tonight (I'm going to try to make a version of the wreath from the catalog so we'll see how it goes.

Have a great weekend!
