Happy Halloween

I actually managed to make a few Halloween cards but will I manage to mail them all out in time? :):)

This is a Small Folding Pocket Card, the directions are at the bottom. They have a cute little bookmark that goes into the pocket.

 

 

 Here are all 4 of them, all folded up and ready to mail.

 

Outside of orange card, inside of one of the blue cards and bookmark.

 

Inside of card with bottom flap folded up.

Directions, please pay attention to the spot that states, "sample only - squares are NOT to size!"

 

Recipe:

 

Pumpkin, broom, sentiment and cat stamps are all from Plum Purdy, she no longer sells stamps and I was very lucky go get the ones I have.

Background stamps - on ghost page is a Unity stamp and the one on the bookmark is from Prima Marketing.

Die Cuts - Cricut Happy Hauntings cartridge.

Backgrounds all colored with Gelatos.  

Halloween in June

My gal pal Renee from Plum Purdy found this cute little Vintage Postcard Kit in her crafty stash and sent it to me. It comes with 6 postcards and 8 Halloween stamps, 12 embellishments and 18 chipboard pieces.

 

There are several things you can make with these, I decided to make a Halloween banner.

 



I used all of the stamps and all of the included embellishments as well as some bling from my stash but I didn't use any of the chipboard pieces, I added them to my stash to use another time.

 

Ewe-N-Me Printables Halloween Cards

Hang tags are so versatile and jars are really popular right now for crafting so when I saw these hang tags with jars on them I couldn't resist the temptation to play with them.

 

 

 

These are perfect for Halloween cards.

 

 

 After printing my files I cut them out and went to work.  I put some twine around the lids and added some googley eyes to the pumpkin, the die cut pumpkin and spider are extra cuts from previous projects. A couple of crow buttons that I painted with black chalk paint and added some eyes to.
 

 
More leftover cuts from previous projects plus a couple of black jewels.
 

 



I added some star buttons on this one that I painted with black chalk paint then added some craft twinkles to.

All of the sentiments and buttons are from Plum Purdy.com

I cut the banners from papers I had leftover from cutting out the cards.

HIMCR #205 - Any Holiday!

The sponsor is Hiding in My Craft Room!

The giveaway is a Cricut Robot Party Cartridge!

 

I made another Halloween card because I wanted to use these stamps from www.plumpurdy.com and all of the papers were in my scrap pile. I am doing my best to use up all that I can from that scrap pile before cutting up more papers/cardstock.

 

I started with the background, stamping the pumpkin image on with StazOn black ink. Then I added the card base, stamped the sentiment and layered it onto a scrap of black glitter cardstock and foam pads. I finished off with a piece of black/white twine.

 

Halloween Mini Book Made With A Snack Bag Wrapper

Good morning everyone. Today's project is a bit different, I used a Halloween Snack Bag Wrapper to create a mini Halloween book. I pulled out some old Halloween pics of my son to create this.

First I printed the Printable from Ewe-N-Me Printables and cut it out, then I picked out some scraps from my stash to create the pages and trimmed them to fit inside. I cut 6 pages, making them a little smaller than the area inside the wrapper.

 

Then I punched the holes for the binding wire using my Cinch Book Binder. It's important to do this step before adding your pictures/embellishments so that you don't inadvertently place something in the way of where you want the holed punched.

 

 

I decorated my pages and did the binding with my Cinch.



 

Adhere the back page of the mini book to the inside back of the Snack Bag Wrapper.

 

 

Use a decorative paper clip to hold book closed.

 

 



This was fast and easy to make and is a perfect little book to send my son, his wife loves pictures of David when he was young.
