Happy Halloween

I'm playing along with the Waltzingmouse Stamps' Blog Party for October. This month is a color challenge: to use purple, orange and black.



I stamped the plaid background using Faux Fun and the sentiment is from Say it Loud Winter.

Halloween Treats

Here's my post for the PTI challenge to use one of three stamps set this week!

Here are some treat boxes I made up for my kids' to give to their classmates for Halloween. The box is the Favor It Box 1 and I use Tiny Treats: Valentine for the frame, and Tiny Treats: Halloween for the images. The paper is from a new digital collection by Mari Koegelenberg, Spookville, available today at The Digichick .

Thanks for looking!

Eyeballs for sale...

I'm having lots of fun making Halloween cards! My kids are so excited about Halloween this year, although, unlike most years, we haven't quite decided on costumes yet.



I thought it was kinda funny to have a pretty jar with a fabric topper, and then have eyeballs be the content on the inside....maybe I just have a weird sense of humor!


Thanks for looking!

Halloween mini cards

These fun mini-cards were made using the newest Mat Stack die and Tiny Treats: Halloween. These might be fun to tuck into my son's lunch bag around Halloween, or they could serve as treat toppers for classroom treats.



I doesn't get much cuter--these little images are great!

Thanks for looking!

Witch's Brew

Such a fun Halloween image! I kept the rest of the card fairly simple, as the focal part is pretty busy. I colored the witch's brew jar with Copic markers and added some Doodlebug glitter.

Embellish Challenge

I played along with the latest Embellish Magazine challenge. You can find the details here . The colors drew to me make a Halloween card. I stamped several images from Spoooky Sweets II and punched them out with a square punch.



The focal image, the Mat Stack, was heat embossed with black detail ep (Filigree) and then I added Doodlebug glitter to the empty circles.

Happy Halloween!

Sorry I haven't been posting much this week--it's been busy and sick!

I made this fun card with some digital paper from the Digichick by Quirk Twerp called All Hallow's Eve . I stamped my witch twice, once in black and again in versarmark so I could heat emboss. I then machine stitched and distressed the edges of the paper and added the bow and tag.

Hope you have a fun and safe night...I am off in a bit with my ninja and lion to trick or treat!
