I'll be sharing cards from our Spooky Sweet Suite collection all week. This little fairy is one of the critters that's in the sheet of punch outs in the pattern paper pack. The sheet of punch outs makes it so quick and easy to make a card. I know we usually try to make projects complicated or very involved. It's quite okay to make quick and simple cards and they are still cute. Check back tomorrow to see more little spooky … [Read more...] about Sprinkling A Little Fun

I’m Ready For My Close-Up
I received several questions about my Spooky frame from Wednesday so I thought I would share more details about it. The inside of the frame is 4 3/8ths" square. I have used these frames before and found they can vary slightly in size. I usually measure each side and cut my paper to fit. You will want to build this before you out it in the frame. Here's how you do the layers. Everything in the square is layered with dimensionals. … [Read more...] about I’m Ready For My Close-Up

Boo!
Our Spooky Sweet Suite collection is pretty darn cute. The paper has these amazing backgrounds you can use with the critters to make adorable scenes. I used the Suite to make this little Halloween vignette. I made it from one sheet of card stock. I folded it into thirds and then cut the arch for all three panels at one time. For this vignette, I actually didn't do any stamping. I used the punch outs from the pattern paper pack to decorate … [Read more...] about Boo!

Make It Your Own
One of the best kits in recent months is the Haunted House kit. This kit makes an adorable 3D haunted house. Here's a picture of the kit from the Stampin Up website. The kit looks great assembled just as the directions indicate. But... what if you did something a bit different with it? What could I transform this cute, simple house into? I made a base out of foam board and then covered it with air dry clay. Once the clay was dry, I used … [Read more...] about Make It Your Own

Hocus Pocus Part 2
In playing with the cauldron die, I thought it would be fun to make it into a 3D treat holder. I die cut two of the cauldrons, and then made a long strip that would fit between the two. This is what it looks like. Here is a view from the side showing the black band between the two. Basically, you made a long strip and score it .25" inches from each side so you have an area that you can glue to the front and the back. The box area in … [Read more...] about Hocus Pocus Part 2
