Googly Ghouls Halloween

Happy Halloween!!!  I love Halloween!  Sept. was a very busy month for our family as our oldest son got married.  We made many, many paper flowers for decorations.  I will post pictures sometime soon.  In the meantime, here are some fun Halloween cards I made using the new stamp set Googly Ghouls.  The sentiments are from the new hostess stamp set Wacky Wishes and Mixed Medly.  I love the new Googlies  (adhesive backed googly eyes).  Enjoy!

Halloween Cards!

Here are a bunch of fun Halloween cards I made for our local Coffee Haus to sell. I used several current Stampin' Up stamp sets, the owl punch, the bat punch (retired) and the spider-web embossing folder. I will post more details later. Enjoy!

Warmest of Wishes Halloween Card

Halloween is so fun! I love to make Halloween cards and scrapbook pages. This card was made from a fun new Hostess stamp set Warmest of Wishes. It can be found in our new Holiday Mini. I also die cut a leaf from our leaves #2 die (which I love...and use ALL the time when scrapbooking) and embossed it with our new houndstooth embossing folder. I punched out the owl and die cut the leaf...so there was very minimal cutting by hand...which I also like very much! Enjoy!

Spooky Treats!

I have to admit that I was a little skeptical about the new candy wrapper Big L Die (available in the new holiday mini #120809). I purchased it so I can make treats for the upcoming craft fair I am going to be at in Seneca on Sunday, Nov. 21st. I was amazed at how easy and simple it was to use. I made these treats for my daughter's Halloween party at school. It only requires one cut with the Big Shot and a tiny bit of adhesive to keep it together after it is folded. It makes wonderful creases so it folds very quickly. I used the stamp set Wicked Cool (wood mount 118738 and clear mount 120600) to stamp "Spooky". I then punched it out with the large oval punch while my daughter punched out the bats with the new bat punch. I used an assortment of ribbon to tie the ends. So easy and cute! FYI...in case you are wondering, I put a couple of Hershey's miniatures in each one. Two to three will fit in each wrapper. Happy Halloween!!!

Trick or Treat

Here's just a simple scrapbook page displaying some photos of my son when he was little dressed up for Halloween. I used new products from SU: the new trick or treat letterpress plate, the new Nite Owl designer series paper, the new spider web embossing folder and the new bat punch. Also used a pumpkin button and a few basic rhinestones. (All from SU.) I plan to add his age and date to this page with the word window punch. Enjoy!

Wicked Cool

I love the colors of Halloween. I am so glad SU is keeping Rich Razzleberry and bringing back Tangerine Tango. For this card I used the new Wicked Cool stamp set (118738 wood mount and 120600 clear mount), Sweet and Sour DSP (117390) and the new Bitty Bat Large (119279). I used Rich Razzleberry 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon (119957) and the new Basic Rhinestones (119246) for the bat's eyes to give the bats some sparkle and make them stand out. Enjoy!

Greeting Card Kids and Wicked Cool

I used Greeting Card Kids (wood mount 119887 and clear mount 120633) and Wicked Cool (118738 wood mount and 120600 clear mount) stamp sets for this Halloween card. Love these new sets! I used my aqua painters to color in the image with my watercolor crayons. I used styled Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware (112454) for the greeting. Colors used were: Tangerine Tango, Concord Grape and Pear Pizzazz. Also used dotted scallop ribbon border (119275). Black ribbon is retired from SU. Used chunky glitter with crystals effects.
