Spooky Halloween - Simon Says Stamp

 

Hello....popping in today to share my Spooky Halloween card for Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. I used a new stamp from Social Paper Plan. They have so many fun Disney themed small stamps and I could not resist!!!

Cupcake Inspirations #419 - World of Wizards and Witches

Hello...popping in today with a spooky little project for the new challenge at Cupcake Inspirations #419 - Worlds of Wizards and Witches. I did not have any wizards so I pulled out this wonderful witch from PTI's Spooky Sweets II, just the love her look and added the moon shaped stamp from Brushed Off! I case'd this wonderful treat holder that Tracey made for me some time back but instead of Christmas, I turned it into a Halloween candy holder, complete with a few mini KitKat bars. 

I added a pocket on the inside that holds 3 mini KitKat bars, so much fun to make. The dies on the outside of the tent are also from Reverse Confetti, School and Love Note.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your day!

ColourQ #366

Hello...hope everyone had a fabulous and spooky Halloween! We had a fun parade at school, just love seeing all my little students dressed up to celebrate. I am still in shock that it is November 1st today....where did the year go??? 

I have one card to share today for the new color palette at ColourQ #366. I will be honest these are not really my colors but I pulled out some supplies that have never been used or hardly used at all. I used SSS Thanks Scallop Border and Neat & Tangles Scandinavian Prints, really like the end result and this time of year I could use a few extra thank you cards. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your day!

Wanted to share with you the treats I made to take to school, they were so much fun to make!

The Challenge #80

This is Halloween - 12 Kits September 2016

It's the final day of September and time again for our 12 Kits of Occasions post- This is Halloween! Jeanne's kit was simply amazing, so many incredible goodies, enough to make a couple dozen cards! I only completed 3 cards, which is really criminal with all her wonderful ingredients. We have been having so much going on here, my daughter leaves for Scotland today (very excited and also very worried, she is meeting up with my sister and another friend), I know she will have the time of her life, but as a mom, I worry. My hubby is also heading out of town, his mom is not doing well at all, she is 88 and suffers from Alzheimer's and he really wants to spend some time with her. So thank you so much for your understanding. So here are my trio of spooky cards....

Jeanne's fabulous kit!

Please visit The 12 Kits of Occasions blog to see all the incredible Halloween cards and a complete list of supplies.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your day!

ColourQ #311

Hello....it's Tuesday and don't you just love this fabulous new color palette from ColourQ #311! I do, it's so festive and so much fun. I hate to admit this but my card was kind of last minute, almost did not make one. I am taking classes for my new job and I am not used to writing papers and all the other things that go with being back in school as a student. The classes are fabulous I have to admit but once again I am getting a wee bit behind in commenting and will do my best to get caught up soon. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by....enjoy the rest of your week!

Muse #132

Wishing you all a fabulous weekend. I am just about caught up with my commenting, plan to finish that up tonight. I did manage to get one card made last night. I could not wait to play along with this week's Muse #132...I love the Graphic Grettings stamps from Taylored Expressions! I decided to get a bit head start on my Halloween cards and instead of having a ribbon loop sticking out from the side I went with witch legs popping out the top!
