I'm prepping for my kids' class, which is tomorrow. I decided since it's almost October, we would do some Halloween projects.
I sometimes use retired product in my kids' classes. The Curvy Keepsake Box/caramel apple is made with retired Baked Brown Sugar card stock (it's just the perfect color for caramel!) and Cucumber Crush ribbon. The card uses various retired ribbons and stamps from September 2014 Paper Pumpkin. The note pad is made with the current Jar of Haunts and the retired Halloween Bash. I love the little tassels! They are in the Holiday catalog.
Looking forward to stamping with the kiddos tomorrow!
Happy stamping, everyone!

We made this card at stamp club a couple of weeks ago:
There are a couple of tricks to make this card, so I made a video for you. Enjoy!
Happy stamping, everyone!

We made this little banner at my Kids' Fun Club this month:
We used Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight and Whisper White card stocks and the Circle Framelits. We glued the circles together and then cut them apart in pie shapes. They are tied togehter with the 1/8" Basic Black Taffeta. The finished banner is not very big; it would fit well on the corner of a large picture frame. This is what I did with mine:
I love it on my old typewriter! We also made the ghost card that I placed in the typewriter. I need to get a good picture of it to show you. Here is the whole table:
I made the "Spooky" banner last year. I am excited to start decorating this table in my foyer for all of the holidays!
Happy stamping, everyone!

It's still pretty warm here, but it is cooler in the mornings. And the calendar does say October, so it's time for some fall themed stamping. Our latest group swap resulted in some great fall cards:
Jessica created this fun Halloween card using the Ghoulish Greetings stamp set and the Motley Monsters Designer Series Paper.
Karen's lovely "thanks" card uses the Seasonally Scattered stamp set, inked up with sponge daubers and beautiful fall colors (Old Olive, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, and Pumpkin Pie).
Wonderful job, ladies!
Happy stamping, everyone!

I shared this card a couple of weeks ago:
I promised a video, and then life became more hectic than usual. But I finally finished it today! Actually, I made three videos: punch art, card base, and wreath. Enjoy!
Cat and Pumpkin Punch Art:
Arched Door Card Base:
Wreath and putting it all together:
Happy stamping, everyone!

I think this may be my favorite card that I have made with the Wondrous Wreath set.
Love the arched door. Love the cat. Love the banner and the bow. Stay tuned for a vidoe. Because I love this card.
(The video is finished! Find it here.)
Thanks for stopping by! Happy stamping, everyone!

I haven't been sharing for a few days. I apologize for that. But I got to spend some time with my family, and my house is a little cleaner. :-)
Today I'm sharing the projects we did at Stamp Club this week. I love fall projects! Probably because I love the holidays.
We made the cat with the 1/8", 1" and 1 3/4" Circle Punches, Large Oval punch, and the Petite Pennants Builder Punch. The Polka Dot Tag a Bag Gift Bag is folded down to about 5". I think a cookie would be the perfect treat to go in this fun little bag.
I have had so much fun playing with the Wondrous Wreath stamp set. Love it! I have several other projects to show you next week. This one uses Old Olive, Always Artichoke, and Real Red. I think this is my favorite combination for a Christmas Wreath with this set.
Stampin' Up! made a great, short video showing how to use Wondrous Wreath with the coordinating Wonderful Wreath Framelits. Enjoy!
Happy stamping, everyone!

I got this card in the monthly swap I am doing with my group (some downline, some sideline - all wonderful friends and stampers!).
Love it! Unfortunately, the name isn't on it, and it got separated from its envelope. And I can't remember anything these days. So, group, if this is yours, let me know! I will be glad to give you credit. :-)
There is Dazzling Details at the top of the cauldron (made from the Ornament punch!). It makes the perfect glittery brew! Here are all of the supplies used:
Stamps: Wicked Cool
Card Stock: Basic Black, Tangerine Tango, Lucky Limeade, Whisper White
Ink: Stazon Black, Concord Crush, Lucky Limeade
Accessories: Neutrals Designer Series Paper Pack, Ornament Punch, Scallop Oval Punch, Oval Punch, Dazzling Details, Dimensionals
I referred to this card when I made my popcorn slider for my Halloween Treats Stamp-a-Stack. Thanks for sharing ideas, friend!
Happy stamping, everyone!
