Halloween a Glow - Holiday Mini Catalog

Okay, so maybe I was getting a little ahead of myself with all of the Christmas cards but it's not too early to start stamping your holiday cards so I wanted to give you some ideas.

Let's backtrack to the next holiday coming up...Halloween.  I used to decorate a lot for Halloween but not so much since it's just Mike, I and Brandy.  I did want to make a few things to put out for the occasion though and so I'm making a bunch of these.  What do you think?  The candle is one of those battery operated kinds...no fire hazard.  The Haunted Forest stamp works perfectly with the 2 1/2" circle punch and I'm happy with the results. Click on the image for a larger look. 

I embossed the black cardstock with the spider web embossing folder and Big Shot after I created the box with the Fancy Favor Bigz XL Die with the Big Shot.

 

September Stamp Camp projects

I had my monthly Stamp Camp today and everyone had a really good time.  Here are the cards we made.  We also made a 3-d for Halloween but I already gave it away.  Forgot to take a picture first.  If you came today and are reading this, if you send me a jpeg of the 3-d, I'll post it here.  thanks

This is with a jumbo wheel and the new bat punch...woo hoo...I LOVE punches.  They make life so much easier.  It's the little things :-)

Upcoming Stamp Camp Project

Here is one of my projects for an upcoming stamp camp on October 23rd at 7:00pm.  I hope you can make it.  RSVP by October 20th.  If you're not on my EVITE list, let me know and I'll add you.  This is the 3-d item we'll make.  Yummy in his tummy.

The other projects will be Fall themed and you can personalize with the greeting of your choice.
